How do the Royal family travel? Take a glimpse at jet-setting Royal life

Get the highlights without all the rules.

There are a lot of rules about travelling when you’re a royal – heck; there are a lot of rules about everything.

There’s an official rule that two heirs to the royal throne should never be on the same plane together. The macabre reason being the protection of the Royal bloodline, should anything happen to the plane.

Then there’s the rule that the entirety of the British Royal Family must always pack a black outfit only to be worn in the sad case that a family member dies while they’re travelling.

That’s just the tip of the iceberg, but the good news is you can travel like a Royal without all the pomp and ceremony.

Take a look at some of their favourite hotspots below.
