Returning to Roots: Collaboration, Growth and the Return of Coach Holidays

At The Coach Travel Group, collaboration is more than a business model, it’s how we protect heritage, support growth and deliver the travel experiences customers truly value. As we look ahead to 2026, that collaborative approach is clearly reflected in the return of coach holidays for two much‑loved regional operators: Worthing Coaches and Lucketts Coaches.

Coach Holidays Return for 2026

After a period away from holiday programmes, both Worthing Coaches and Lucketts are proudly returning to what many customers know them for, coach holidays. With the launch of their brand‑new 2026 Coach Holiday Brochures, the operators are once again offering a wide range of carefully planned breaks.

This return marks an important milestone, not just for the operators themselves, but for the communities and loyal customers who have been asking for holidays to return.

Stronger Through Collaboration

Through their partnership with The Coach Travel Group, Worthing Coaches and Lucketts are able to draw on the experience, scale and shared expertise of the wider Group. A key part of this collaboration has been working closely with fellow group operator Barnes Coaches, whose 105+ years of experience in delivering high‑quality coach holidays has helped shape the new 2026 programmes.

By working together, the operators have been able to:

• Reintroduce a strong holiday offering with confidence
• Expand destination choice while maintaining trusted standards
• Deliver professionally planned itineraries backed by experienced operations

This collaborative model allows each brand to remain proudly local, while benefiting from the reassurance and capability of a wider group.

New 2026 Holiday Brochures

The newly launched Worthing Coaches 2026 Holiday Brochure and Lucketts Coaches 2026 Holiday Brochure showcase the best of what this partnership can achieve. Customers will find:

• A selection of classic UK coach holidays customers know and love
• New and refreshed destinations for 2026
• Comfortable travel, quality accommodation and carefully chosen excursions

Most importantly, customers can book knowing their holiday is supported by trusted, family‑influenced operators working together behind the scenes.

Looking Ahead

The return of coach holidays for Worthing Coaches and Lucketts is a clear example of how The Coach Travel Group’s collaborative approach drives sustainable growth. By helping operators return to their roots while strengthening their future, we’re ensuring coach holidays remain accessible, enjoyable and relevant for years to come.

As we move into 2026, we’re proud to see our operators working together combining heritage, experience and ambition to bring holidays back where they belong.
