Royals 'keep it simple' by taking economy flight to Balmoral - amazing fellow passengers

Kate Middleton has stunned fellow passengers after taking an economy flight with children Charlotte and Louis. The Duchess of Cambridge was spotted taking the trip by a surprised member of the public who went on to share a video on TikTok. It is understood that Kate took the commercial flight with seven-year-old Charlotte and four-year-old Louis.

As reported in the Express, the Royal Family members were en route to Balmoral. Prince William is said to have travelled separately with their eldest child Prince George, nine.

The royal spotter said the family were 'keeping it simple'. Taking to social media platform TikTok they said: "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 social media user went on: "She even got up halfway through the flight to get her daughter's iPad. And yes she was stunning, even gave me a smile while looking back at the row behind her to talk to her son."

The post added: "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."

According to the Express report, Kate wore a midi skirt and khaki blazer for the journey, which she had paired with a shoulder bag. The Queen is currently spending her annual summer break at Balmoral in the Scottish Highlands.
