First class service
My wife and I had picked our main 2027 holiday but for some unknown reason it just disappeared the next day , I explained this to Carmen at Hays and she said leave this with me I will see what I can do . We got a phone call later that day that Tui computers were playing up all over and she had tracked and got the holiday booked . First class service .

Sarah at Hays, Galashiels is welcoming, went the extra mile and puts so much time and thought re booking flights and travel insurance.
She enabled a really good, challenging booking to take place. Other staff at Hays, Galashiels are also friendly and give helpful advice on follow up visit.
