@dalehileman,
Thanks.

So you think

Have a good trip.

can be used? I'm not sure, because it doesn't sound idiomatic.

@WBYeats,
Why do you have to respond with an idiom?

You give directions. They say thank you. You respond "You're welcome"

@chai2,
Thanks.

But by idiomatic, I mean the usual way of how native speakers use the language, not of or pertaining to idioms.
