Introducing a new era in Solent Coaches history

 

Solent Coaches is now part of the Lucketts Group, a family coach firm based just down the road in Fareham. Nothing will change for customers. You’ll get the same great service, from the same faces you’ve got to know over the years and it’s very much business as usual.

 

 

Who is Lucketts Group?

Lucketts is an independent and family owned coach provider operating a fleet of around 160 vehicles across five core brands – Lucketts Travel, Coliseum Coaches, Worthing Coaches, Mortons Travel and now Solent Coaches. It was established in 1926 by Harry Luckett and is still owned by the Luckett family today, with his son David the current chairman.

 

Lucketts is the biggest independent coach travel provider in the South and has ambitious plans to grow even more in coming years. Solent Coaches will play an important part in this and we look forward to building on the existing success of Solent Coaches and growing the business with Lucketts backing.

 

 

Q&A

I’m a Solent Coaches customer, does my booking still stand?

Yes. It’s business as usual with all bookings firmly standing.

 

Will I deal with different people now?

No, you’ll see the same faces you’ve always dealt with and the same drivers behind the wheel.

 

How do I go about booking a coach now?

The same way you always have – by calling the usual number or dropping by the office.

 

Will the prices change?

No.

 

Will we be on different coaches now?

For now you’ll be on the same Solent Coaches. However, we’re looking to make significant investment in the fleet so you can expect to see some new and improved vehicles very soon. Plus we can now call on vehicles from the vast fleet across the Group.
