Feedback on our holiday booking experience

I was very impressed by the service and very helpful attitude of Ashleigh. She was friendly and gave us all the information we needed to make our choice of cruise. She also provided useful follow-up help and advice when we booked our holiday and in subsequent contacts.

A special thank you to Ashleigh

I'm taking my son and daughter and there families on holiday,Ashleigh listened to our requirements and gave us several options. Having discussed these with family they were all rejected, Ashleigh understanding why they were rejected quickly came back to us with several more options. This time Ashleigh found just what we wanted and made it happen. Both my daughter and I had several phone calls with Ashleigh who was very understanding of our requirements so polite and a real pleasure to deal with.

Wrong advice given on booking

We only booked through hays travel agents as we were told before booking they could definitely add extra baggage for us (which we could not do online) which we really needed.
Booked and paid for flights, then got told it wasn’t possible and we had to call them ourselves. Also got told this was not possible over the phone.

Hi Rachael, Thank you for your review, Ashleigh is very upset reading this as she pointed out at the time of booking that the extra baggage would not be possible to add as your were travelling on separate airlines. She then spent a considerable amount of time checking in all of your party, adding passport details and printing out boarding passes. She also gave you the telephone number for emirates regarding the extra luggage and printed out the cost and weights of cases associated with adding luggage at the airport. She really did go above on beyond to help you which makes reading the content of your review disappointing to read. Kind regards Peter

We went into the Cheltenham office not knowing where to go, David suggested Madeira and then spent time providing us with information on hotels and areas to stay. We spent a day reading the information David gave us and then returned and booked to go to one of the hotels he’d found. Booking was easy and all questions were answered so now looking forward to going.
