Prince William spotted in economy class seats for journey home from American wedding


This weekend Prince William was spotted in economy class when he took an internal flight in the US after celebrating his friend Guy Pelly’s marriage.

On the American Airlines plane he took a window seat and is understood to have ordered water during the 1hour 30 domestic flight. A similar flight was on sale today for £250.
Holding his hand luggage he boarded a plane separately to the rest of the passengers in Memphis, surrounded by security officers.


The photo was taken by US television reporter Eli Ross who was on the flight - he posted the image on Twitter writing: 'I am still amazed #Prince William flies COACH. That's pretty humble/awesome. Who knew?'

Eli Ross is a reporter for Local 24 News and CW 30 News in Memphis - the station had already been covering the wedding extensively.
The cost of the trip itself is being met privately by both the princes - Prince William is understood to have changed planes at Dallas Fort Worth to return to the UK.
