92 coach trips and more to come..
A heartfelt thank you to Miss Edna Lockhart from Ixworth, Suffolk.
Sunrise Direct, the local East Anglian specialist coaching tour operator (www.sunrisedirect.com), who recently had the pleasure of visiting Edna to present her with their top booker Loyal Customer Booking Award.

At 79, Edna has been a loyal customer for well over a decade, embarking on 92 remarkable trips with Sunrise Direct in the past 10 years, each trip more memorable than the last! From Eastbourne to the Pennines and from the Lochs and Glens of Scotland to an Ocean Cruise - she has done it all is already planning more for 2025 - she’s journeyed near and far aiming at 2 trips a month, and has enjoyed every moment she has away meeting old faces on the trips and making new friends. ‘’ You are only here once, live for today and have fun is my motto’’ said Edna.
But Edna's loyalty doesn't stop there! Not only has she travelled extensively herself, but she’s also become a true ambassador for Sunrise Direct, sharing her experiences and spreading the word to friends and neighbours in Suffolk.
Edna shared with us, “I love my Sunrise Direct trips – from the moment I book with the lovely team to the moment I return home, I always feel so special and so well looked after. That’s why I book with Sunrise Direct – they look after me and the local pick up in Ixworth is the key to this customer service, the coach drivers are caring and just amazing’’
To show appreciation, Lyn Arnold and Kirsty Laifa from the Sunrise Direct’s customer care team presented Edna with an award, a beautiful bouquet of Spring flowers, and of course, a delicious Easter egg to top it all off. We just wanted to bring a little extra Spring joy to Edna and thank her for her ongoing loyalty and commitment to our Sunrise Direct holidays, We had a lovely time meeting her and hearing all her stories of her trips away.
