I would like to this opportunity to profusely thank the team dedicated to the demise of the Queen. Your team worked tirelessly for us, always remaining calm and delivering the utmost of professional services under extreme pressures. It has been a joy to work with them throughout the year and I am more than grateful for their outstanding commitment to us.
International Production Coordinator, Worldwide News Organization
I received an absolutely high-quality service for this project to Japan. I was provided all the necessary paperwork and information required in what has been a rather challenging country to travel to. They have always responded back to me with any questions I may have both in a very quick time and without any issues at all. They are always very helpful and understanding of my needs and have delivered on all fronts.
Executive, Major Film Studio
Oh my God! We would not have been able to do this without you guys! Cannot thank you enough and cannot wait to do this again! Seriously...I wish we were coming back to Europe tomorrow, with buses of course! Thank you again so much and can’t wait to do it again!
Tour Manager, World Tour for Grammy winning artist
I spoke to Joe earlier and he was very happy with the way everything was handled with all the late requests. So, a well done to your team!
Production Manager, Major Film Studio
Ah fantastic, thanks so much, you worked so fast to help us!
Production Coordinator, Major Motion Picture Studio
They are so responsive and supportive, always responding with complete information and following up when needed, for example like hold deadlines expiring and to send over receipts when I’m doing backlogs of expenses. I really couldn’t do without them – I really hope they know how valued they are.
Executive Assistant and Newsroom Coordinator, Major Network
Happy New Year!! Thank you for all of your help, dedication and work last year. It’s always a pleasure working with such a wonderful and talented team. Wishing you all the best for 2023! Hopefully a little less Ukraine travel this year!
Production Team, Global News Organization
She is someone I can rely on and love speaking to. Darla has helped me each step, a really long-winded task that she has never once dropped the ball on. She is a lovely person to speak to, I look forward to her bright email manner daily and she is a real asset to the team. Overall, I really wanted to let their management know just how much I value the team and how much help they provide me in my day to day work – I’m positive I am just one of many who feel this way.
Executive Assistant and Newsroom Coordinator, Major Network
BCD have been a fantastic partner and we are fortunate to have them supporting this project. The team have supported the project in all aspects of travel including flights, transfers, shuttles, work permits, visa applications etc. Her support has been invaluable through the covid period. I have been impressed with their in-depth knowledge of the project and willingness to take on the many challenges we face, even when it is outside their remit.
Production Coordinator, Independent Film Company
You are like having a guardian angel while I travel, feels very reassuring.
Personal Assistant to Real Estate Magnate
I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for the incredible and extraordinary coup you were able to pull off in arranging the tickets for the semi-final and final of the French Open this past weekend. Your work to make the magic happen was truly exceptional and I am still very much in awe (if not shock) that I was able to go at all in the first place! Truly, I cannot thank you enough for these double wonderful weekend experiences. It was amazing.
CEO, Fortune 500 Company
I'd like to say thank you for all that you do for me and the company. You are very much appreciated by everyone who works with you. So, thank you from us all!
President and Chair of a Global Talent Agency
Travel during COVID has indeed been a challenge so yes, it seems to be opening up and we hope it stays this way. I have worked with various travel agents/ VIP partners but never encountered such a professional as she. She truly understands how to take excellent care of C-suite clients and to ensure their travel experience runs smoothly from A-Z.
Executive Assistant to CEO of a Fortune 500 Company
Thank you, I think we may now have everyone back in London! And thank you both for your help with the Italy travel over the past couple of months, you've definitely made booking everything a smoother process for us!
Film Production Coordinator
I just wanted to tell you what a fantastic experience I had with out of hours this weekend. I had to alter two flights last minute and both times I called the staff were so helpful and the issue was sorted very quickly - they were just brilliant.
Publicist, Streaming Network
Thank you again for all the wonderful work you did for this. We were so impressed. I greatly appreciate all your time, only sorry that we have had to change it all. Thank you again, we all greatly appreciate all the work you both have done for this.
Production Coordinator, Major Film Studio
I wish to say to you and the rest of the team at BCD have been absolutely fantastic and a pleasure to work with. I will be jumping onto my next job and will be looking after travel again, so we will be in touch soon :D!
Assistant Production Coordinator, Independent Film Company
I have not made your lives easy, but you have constantly done your utmost to help me and the team with whatever we threw your way. I am so appreciative of all the behind the scenes staffing logistics and all of the BCD Italy coordinating and everything you have been doing to make this possible to get this thing to the finish line. I couldn’t have done it without you and the entire team dealing with my daily email/phone harassment, but no words will ever be able to explain how grateful I am.
Travel & Production Coordinator
Your team are so responsive and supportive, always responding with complete information and following up when needed, for example like hold deadlines expiring and to send over receipts when I’m doing backlogs of expenses. I really couldn’t do without them – I really hope they know how valued they are. They are also so friendly to converse with which I feel like is a trait often overlooked in our email centric world! I feel very lucky they are on our account.
Executive Assistant and Newsroom Coordinator, Major Network
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank you for the great co-operation, it was very much appreciated from my side. You were always so friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable - the ultimate professional. It was always such a joy to speak with you and nothing was too much trouble for you, you certainly made this part of my job much easier. You are the best Travel Co-Ordinator I have worked with and I will really miss you.
Executive Assistant, Celebrity
Thank you so much for all your help. You guys are amazing!
Chief of Staff, Major Record Label
The complexity in this environment can at times be very challenging and requirements / expectations high, though she masters it in a fantastic manner. It is a true pleasure to collaborate with her and she is a key business partner. I truly do hope she is recognized for the amazing work she delivers.
Chief Administrative Officer, Forbes 500 Company
Two unit moves to two/from two different countries, constant VIP cast/ATL crew travel on the daily…this extends to the entire group who were just incredible. I genuinely had the dream team and I wouldn’t have had it any other way. We are a package deal moving forward. As I don’t think I could work as well with anyone else and after this beast…I feel like we could take on anything. Thank you so much!
Travel & Production Coordinator
She was brilliant and honestly, we could not have done it without her, I did send her a message saying thank you but please pass on how grateful we are that she was on the team.
Production Assistant, UK Production
I just wanted to take a moment to thank each and everyone of you for EVERYTHING you did for us during the prep and production!!!

Thank you so much. Talk about an efficient team. I really appreciate your time and efforts! I was without internet today - apologies for late reply.

Lead Coordinator and EA to International Indie Film Maker
Who would have thought when I was a kid playing PacMan, Esports would even be a thing! Now, here we are in the Big Apple (OMG!!) with our son for a major Tournament. We want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH for all you’ve done to get us here quickly and easily. The hotel is just wonderful! The front desk even upgraded us to adjoining rooms and sent us gluten free cookies with the tournament logo on them! We felt like real VIPs 😊

All I have to say is no news is good news! :D This is the first trip in years I didn’t get a 2 am text. THANK YOU!!
Executive Assistant to the President, Forbes List 2022
Just having a quick read through our text chat today… How on earth do you decipher our stream of consciousness messages and manage to keep us organized? Well done!! Thank you for all you do. xx
Publicist, Major Film Studio
YES!! We. Are. HERE!! Thank you for getting all of us and the gear here on time. We could NOT have done this without you.
Asst. Coach of Major League Sports team
Thank you for taking the time to walk me through the group needs. We have never handled a large party like this and your help was a key contributor in our success! "I can do things you cannot, you can do things I cannot; together we can do great things." — Mother Teresa
Director or Entertainment Sales, EMEA – International Hotel chain
Service was beyond exceptional and will 100% reach out in the future. Hopefully sooner than later. Thank you so much for dealing with us and the tears. It was truly wonderful. Anyone else I’m sure would have walked away. THANK YOU!!
As always REALLY appreciate you being there for us outside of normal hours when things go pear shaped. Thank you all again for your continued flexibility with all these changes.
Production Coordinator – Arena Tour
It was indeed an interesting tour, but I want to really thank you for your responsiveness and assistance with all of the changes. I will tell you frankly that it stood out in very stark contrast to some issues we’ve had with other agents. I know your attitude Oli is that’s just “part of the job” and nothing special but know that not everyone seems to have gotten that memo, so it is sincerely appreciated.
