But it's GOOD to know...
From the article, TWO ospreys were used.
TWO ospreys cost just under $176 MILLIONS. Hourly cost for TWO ospreys, $22,000. FLight time, figure 1 hour, round trip for TWO ospreys: $88,000.
Was the second Osprey for Bo's food, water dishes (for a water dog), toys, and its comfy cushion?
I think the mini-mooches and grand-mooch are all flying in separately as well.
It’s good to be Royal.
Absolutely. Especially when you realize that it is NOT a long drive to MA and to take the damn ferry over to MAAAtha’s. This is utterly ridiculous... no security concerns whatsoever to justify this idiotic expense. Look at who is on the ground— an excessively overweight “fixer” looking black dude, a female Navy officer and other security types— who are they to be flown afterwards... oh and with the dog?
The second Osprey was a decoy.
Ping.
Article, and # 25.
Even more from the article:
More than 70 hotel rooms, each costing up to $345 (£220) a night, have been booked out for Secret Service agents, who took charge of luggage including two large mesh bags full of basketballs.
