My experience at Flight Centre…

My experience at Flight Centre Cavendish Square, with Farghaana Fortune, has been exceptional. On numerous occasions, Farghaana's level of service and customer care has consistently been efficient and professional. My experience has been that Farghaana goes above and beyond to serve well, before the booking, during the booking process and with offering assistance after the flight confirmation. Thank you Farghaana. With sincere appreciation.

Can someone please give Charlene her flowers!

Since planning a trip for my husband and me in 2020, Charlene has helped me organise two incredible trips for my parents in 2025 and 2026. Her efficiency, patience, professionalism, and attention to detail made the entire process seamless from start to finish. The experience was so positive that my parents are already eager to plan another trip with her.

What I am most grateful for, however, is the care and support she showed during one of my parents' trips when I was unable to reach them. Charlene went above and beyond, taking time out of her personal schedule to help me navigate the situation and reassure me that they were safe. Her willingness to help during such a stressful moment is something I never expected, and it meant more to me than words can express.

Charlene, you are truly the best. Thank you for your exceptional service, kindness, and genuine care. I cannot recommend you highly enough.

Excellent service

I would like to express my sincere appreciation to Lizmar vd Mescht at Flight Centre, Mountain Mill Mall, Worcester, for her outstanding service.

This is certainly not the first time we have had the pleasure of dealing with Lizmar, and once again she has exceeded all expectations. She consistently goes the extra mile, thinks ahead, and takes a genuine interest in understanding and meeting her clients' needs.

With our most recent travel arrangements, my disabled son was also part of the travel plans. Lizmar went above and beyond by proactively arranging special meals and the necessary assistance to accommodate his specific needs. Her attention to detail, compassion, and willingness to ensure that every aspect of our journey was taken care of made a tremendous difference to us.

Exceptional customer service like this is rare. Lizmar is a true asset to Flight Centre, and the company is fortunate to have such a dedicated, professional, and caring employee representing its brand.

Thank you, Lizmar, for your continued excellence and commitment to your clients. Your efforts are greatly appreciated and do not go unnoticed.

Kind regards,

Benitta Swanepoel

Great Service!

We would like to express our sincere appreciation to Ayanda at Flight Centre Farrarmere for the exceptional service and support she provided when we found ourselves stranded in Georgia (Europe) after our return flight was cancelled due to Qatar Airways being grounded due to the escalating war in the Middle East.
During a very stressful and uncertain situation, Ayanda went above and beyond to assist us. She was professional, compassionate, and worked tirelessly to find alternative travel arrangements and keep us informed every step of the way.
Customer service of this caliber is rare, and we are incredibly grateful for everything she did for us. Thank You Ayanda.

Assistance with special offer

Tyla reached out after I acted on an online advertisement of a 3-day special offer. She assisted me in a very professional way and concluded the process of securing our holiday. I highly recommend her services.

The Ultimate Girls Trip

Chirese Van Niekerk ensured that our first girls trip was a success, so grateful to her, everything went as smoothly as planned and we can't wait to plan for the second one. It was an amazing experience, would definitely do it with an agent again, no hassle and stress free!

Our trip was amazing all thanx to Chirese Van Niekerk.

Our trip was amazing all thanx to Chirese Van Niekerk by the Bloemfontein Branch. Every aspect off our trip was planned to perfection aswell as her suggestions. I will never use someone else as this is our 3rd trip with Chirese and all our trips was always amazing with her arranging everything. You get on the flight and everything else from pickups at venues and hotels is done for you including our visas aswell.. Really great experience once again..

Dedicated professional service

I’ve dealt with travel agents before but my experience at the Cavendish branch with Mornay Carstens was the best I’ve ever had. He worked tirelessly to find a program to fit my needs as a granny hosting small children for a trip to Mauritius. And at the last minute when I changed hotels he calmly made the necessary adjustments. What a pleasure to meet a young person so dedicated to his profession.

Quick and excellent service

I needed to make last minute travel arrangements and need quick service. Anziscke responded almost immediately to my request. Thrity-two minutes after I sent my request to her, my flights were booked, I paid and had my receipt in hand. Makes me wonder why I have never used them before.
