The overall travel budget of the whole family amounted to £2.7million for the year as the annual review into their figures between April 1 2018 to March 31 2019 has been released. However, staggeringly, Prince Charles’ own personal travel budget has amounted to nearly half of that amount, registering at £1.3million. The cost of Charles and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall’s, travel by air and rail rose by nearly a third from £1.01million to £1.33million this year.
The review, however, stated that Charles used the train the most which cost around £20,000 per trip.
Charles and Camilla’s royal tour of the Carribean and Cuba in February amounted to a staggering £417,000.
Moreover, their travel to West Africa totalled £216,000, although only trips worth more than £15,000 are required to be logged.
Speaking on the review, a Palace aide said: “His overseas travel was at the behest of the Foreign Office who realise he is a terrific ambassador for Britain.”
