Dan jumped in, found us an amazing flight, worked out all the details and got us a much better price than we were able to find on our own. And, he did all of that in just a few short hours. We will definitely use Dan and Select Business Class again!

I've also recommended him to friends and colleagues, and they've all had great experience with his service.
