William and Kate surprise air travellers
PASSENGERS on a scheduled flight from London to Aberdeen were shocked to see Prince William and Kate Middleton join them on board.
The couple, who recently rekindled their relationship after splitting up earlier in the year, jetted in to Scotland last night for a short break at the Queen's Balmoral Estate. A fellow passenger on the flight said: "They did not get any special treatment. They were offered the same in-flight snack as all the other passengers."
The couple, who were accompanied by a bodyguard, were the first to get off the plane when it touched down shortly after 6pm.
They left the airport's main terminal building in a Range Rover, driven by the prince.
William and Miss Middleton have been at the centre of recent controversy over media intrusion.
Last week Clarence House said the couple were "aggressively" pursued by the paparazzi as they left a London nightclub.
