Vistajet in Solomon islands
Nice product placement shot on BBC TV news, showing the Vistajet logo.

Question: was this a round trip charter, or seperate segments, as is very common with UK royals.

They went BA to Singapore.

Wish I knew how to get around cabotage laws so easily.

T'was all within British Commonwealth States, thus HRH William & bint don't need diplo permits & such.

Wish it was that simple; cabotage rules apply regardless of the DipCat of the punter.

And (sadly, now that the map's no longer pink) the Commonwealth would probably argue quite heavily that they aren't part of British territory!
