The preferred airline to transport the royal family is British Airways. In 1991, Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip flew aboard a concorde for their visit to the United States.
In addition, the Queen does not use conventional flights, but British Airways charter flights for its official business. Even for leisure. In 2011, the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh traveled to Australia aboard a British chartered Boeing 777.
In contrast, Prince William has already been seen flying low cost on Ryanair to Scotland.
However, Btitish Airways is the darling of royalty, as it is the airline of the same flag.
However, flying alone in an airplane doesn't seem to be very eco-friendly. Public people are often charged for this. With the royal family it is no different.
Prince Harry defended himself by saying that he makes most of his travels commercially normally, and that he only travels privately in specific cases, such as in cases where he needs to ensure the safety of himself or his family.
In addition, he said he uses carbon offsetting to erase his footprint in these cases.
