Kate Middleton was reportedly spotted taking an economy flight with her youngest kids, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. 


Despite having access to private jets, VIP airport services and a royal helicopter, Kate Middleton and the two youngest Cambridge kids reportedly opted for an economy flight as they jetted off to Scotland to spend quality time with the Queen at Balmoral this weekend.

According to onlookers, Kate was joined by just two of her brood of three, with Prince George and Prince William believed to have travelled to the Queen's Scottish holiday home separately.

HELLO! reports that a video shared on TikTok from a fellow passenger shares details of Kate, Charlotte and Louis' flight, pointing out that they were just like any other family on board, despite the fact they had security and the children's nanny travelling with them. 

"On a flight to Scotland, Kate Middleton, both kids, nanny and security 2 rows in front of me. Could get a private jet or helicopter but keeping it simple, flying economy," the TikTok user wrote. 

"She even got up half way through the flight to get her daughter's iPad," they added.

Recalling that Duchess Catherine looked as radiant as ever during the flight, the video went on to detail, "And yes she was stunning, even gave me a smile while looking back at row behind her to talk to her son.

"No one on board took any photos or videos. Just a mum taking her children on holiday to see grandmother, but there was a buzz on board."
