Our 5 millionth customer to Majorca - 9 year old Emily Darroch from Livingston in Scotland - has been rewarded in true style.

Lucky Emily, along with her father Colin, mother Karan and sister Hannah, had booked a week-long holiday at the Sol Katmandu Park & Resort in Magaluf, and were expecting a family holiday in the sunshine.

However, after we spotted that Emily is our 5 millionth customer to travel to Majorca, we laid on the full VIP treatment for the family, starting with a doorstep surprise at their Livingston home.

As the family was about to set off to Edinburgh Airport, we turned up with Maiya (the Sol Katmandu mascot), to give Emily news of her treat which includes:

• Chauffeur driven limousine transfer to and from Edinburgh Airport
• Red carpet welcome at Edinburgh Airport - along with priority check-in, fast track security, and lounge access
• Time in the cockpit and on the aircraft with the flight crew and cabin crew
• VIP welcome at Palma Airport in Majorca, complete with a dedicated greeting from the Sol Katmandu entertainment troupe
• Private branded Sol Katmandu transfers to and from Palma Airport, as well as a VIP welcome at the resort
• Upgraded room and play pass
• Additional excursions included throughout the holiday
• Car Hire for duration of the stay
• VIP backstage tour at Pirates Adventure Show, as well as a seat at the Captain’s table for dinner

Emily and her family were also surprised with other treats including in-flight meals and drinks, shopping vouchers both in-flight and in Duty Free, as well as other goodies.

To round it all off, Emily and her family were told that this holiday of a lifetime would be completely FREE.

We have been operating to Majorca since 2003, and today the destination is one of our most popular holiday hotspots, with over 100 weekly flights departing to Palma Airport this summer from across our nine UK bases.

Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays said: “At Jet2.com and Jet2holidays we pride ourselves on our family friendly ethos, so we have really brought this to life in celebration of our 5 millionth customer to fly with us to Majorca. Family holidays are all about creating unforgettable memories, and we hope that Emily and her family get to make as many of these as possible throughout their week with us.”

Commenting on the surprise, Emily Darroch said: “We were just getting ready to go to the airport when the Jet2 team turned up with the Sol Katmandu mascot and told me I was the 5 millionth customer to go to Majorca, and that I would be getting some extra special treats as a result. Me and my sister were so excited and I think Mum and Dad were even more excited than us! We are having the most amazing holiday thanks to Jet2 and Sol Katmandu and I cannot wait to tell all my friends about all the things we have done.”

Her father, Colin Darroch said: “Thanks to Jet2.com and Jet2holidays this is quite literally the holiday of a lifetime. We are still pinching ourselves and asking if it is real, as the entire experience has been out of this world. When we were told that Emily was the 5 millionth customer to Majorca we thought we might get a few small treats, but Jet2 and Sol Katmandu have put together the most unbelievable holiday for us. This is the type of thing that you see happening to other people, so we cannot say thank you enough.”
