No private jet, bus to service for world leaders at Queen's funeral: Report
World leaders preparing to attend one of the UK's most significant and historic events in recent times have reportedly been informed of the strict protocol that will be in place for Queen Elizabeth II's funeral ceremony at Westminster Abbey in London next Monday, September 19.
According to Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) documents obtained by Politico', all international heads of state and their spouses planning to arrive in London for the State Funeral have been asked to arrive on commercial flights rather than private jets and have also been asked not to use helicopters to get around.
They have reportedly been told they cannot use their own state cars to arrive at the service at Westminster Abbey scheduled for 11am local time and would instead be taken by bus from a site in west London.
Westminster Abbey will be so packed for the event that it will be impossible for more than a single, senior representative per country and their spouse to attend, the FCDO notes
