Prince William, his wife Kate and their children have been spotted getting off a £73 budget flight to Scotland, amid a row over Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's private jet trips.

The Duke of Cambridge and Duchess of Cambridge took the 8.45am flight from Norwich International Airport to Aberdeen Airport with their children this morning.

The royal couple and their family can be spotted being escorted from the budget FlyBe plane and getting into waiting vehicles, where they are expected to be whisked away to visit the Queen and Prince Philip at Balmoral.

The Cambridges appearance on the cheap flight will inevitably lead to comparisons with William's brother Prince Harry and his wife Meghan.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have come in for criticism from some quarters after they took four private jet flights in 11 days this summer.

They flew from London to Ibiza and back before making a return trip to Nice earlier this month, fuelling claims they were contributing to climate change.

This must have been on purpose. Prince William is making a statement.

If that’s the case, then the Brits are fools. She’s Moochelle in spades.

Agree. They are popular. Seen as good parents. They know their role and do it well. Thank goodness Wil was firstborn. Harry was the people’s Prince. The novelty of Meghan had worn off. Harry barefoot?? They are seen as too in your face preachy.

I think for a British subject, it goes deeper than that. After all, they have had a monarch for 1,000 years.

WOW. You are so wrong. Read the UK papers and the comments online on their websites.

I really doubt this was a last minute thing. As people who fly that route have said he would have needed to book the tickets well in advance.

I think the timing is coincidence.

People are loving Prince William and are still clamoring for him to bypass Charles.

Although, a poster here who knows Charles says he really is a conservative.

Will “the people” of the UK ever rise up and destroy this hypocritical & sexually perverted monarchy that steals so much from “the people”

When the scales tip and the Islamists have a plurality I'm sure we'll see what remains of the Monarchy fleeing the palace for the United States, likely in the dead of night as an unruly crowd approaches. So, in about 20 years.

IIRC, Charles is a muzzoid satanic freak.

Can you EVER imagine Prince CHarles struggling with multiple bags and a son trying to grab his arm after getting off a budget airline.

That clip is so relatable to the masses.

Prince Harry needs to take some cues from his brother instead of his father to overcome the growing hatred for his shenanigans.

My mistake, you are correct. I misread the article. I apologize.

They are, but only if the kids survive their parents. I know even regular folks who refuse to travel with their spouse in case of a disaster.

They didn’t need to say a word but William and Kate just blew all Meghan’s silly celebrity cheerleaders right out of the water

Wills is preparing to be King. Harry is preparing for life as a PC henpecked spare, trying to find enjoyment and his life’s purpose where he can

Guess again:

“A passenger on the plane who spotted them said: ‘The family were sat right at the front. I fly this route all the time and we were none the wiser. No-one knew they were on the flight.”

Heaven help the world if Harry and ME-ghan end up with the crowns. Just because she wouldn’t be queen, she’d still rule. Heck she already has Harry under her thumb.

This commercial flight was Wills and Kate’s slap at ME-ghan. The commoners were already mad she and Harry have been flying all over Europe in privates jets.

Harry needs to take his wife to Africa and see how long she’s willing to ‘work’ there. She won’t stand not being able to play with her Hollywood crowd.
