I once heard that the Queen's younger sister Princees Margaret, when travelling to Mustique from London with her retinue, allegedly always had herself booked into what was then BA Economy class.

This was done in the full knowledge that, once recognised, they would automatically be upgraded to first class. It was thought that it would be unthinkble for BA her to have travelled in economy class with the proles

Can anyone on here shed any light on this, or is it just urban legend?
