Meghan Markle’s private jet trip of the Invictus Games in Canada could have cost up to $ 30,000 and created six tons of CO2 on the three -hour flight that included a mysterious stop in the United States, Mailonline can reveal today.
The 43 -year -old Sussex Duchess has returned home in California from Vancouver, without her husband Harry, and it is believed that the couple used the same $ 9 million plane to fly last week.
The average cost of hiring a Jet of that size is between $ 7,000 and $ 10,000 per hour, which means that the old flight of Sabir Star Home could have cost between $ 21,000 and $ 30,000.
Meghan and Harry have previously won green awards and were even named ‘models to follow’ environmental in 2021.
But Meghan’s flight will have burned around 800 gallons of fuel and created around 6.6 tons of CO2, which weighs the same as a large elephant.
Meghan landed at the Santa Barbara airport at 5.01 PM on Tuesday after supporting her husband in Canada in the first Invictus winter games.
But Mailonline can reveal that the flight records for the luxury jet show Bombardier Cl-600 that stopped in Seattle for about 30 minutes before taking off again for its final destination.

Attendees said that the trip home was previously planned and that Meghan only intended to stay for five days as he had done in the 2023 event in Germany.
She took off from Vancouver at 2.06 pm local time on February 11 and landed on the border in Seattle at 2.40 pm
The private jet took off again at 3.14 pm and landed in Santa Barbara almost two hours later.
The Cl-600 Bombardier, which can transport up to ten passengers and has a range of more than 5,000 miles, includes its own private equipment that serves hot foods and drinks.
It also has a large winery for bags and other items, exemplified by the amount of luggage that was obtained when the Duchess of Sussex landed in California on Tuesday.
Mailonline has asked a Duchess spokesman why she used a private plane instead of a commercial flight and the reason for the boxes stop in Seattle.
Meghan was again with his children Archie and Lilibet in Montecito after spending five days in Vancouver and Whistler’s ski resort with Harry to mark the seventh edition of the Invictus Games.
The attendees said that the trip home was previously planned and that Meghan only intended to stay for five days as he had done in the 2023 event in Germany.
After his wife’s departure, the prince took a day off to relax and “relax” before attending the remaining events alone.
The Sussexes will spend the Valentine’s Day separately after Meghan returned only to the house of £ 12 million of the couple in Montecito to see their children Prince Archie, five, and Princess Lilibet, three.
In an Instagram post on Wednesday night, Meghan showed a selection of gifts that had brought from Canada for children, including personalized memories with their names.

Harry will stay in Canada to see the rest of the injured and veteran service personnel tournament, which will end with Sunday’s closure ceremony.
The plans were not granted in advance for security reasons, and a source close to the couple said: ‘This was always planned. Meghan goes home to be with her children.
‘Meghan left the games in Dusseldorf early after five days to go home. This is Prince Harry’s event and she is there to support him, but this was planned.
It occurs after it was said that Meghan told fans in a wheelchair basketball match in Vancouver on Sunday that missed her children.
Meanwhile, Harry spoke with his favorite magazine of the United States ‘people’ to talk about Invictus and the impact he has on people’s lives.
He also touched how he speaks of sincere military veterans to his son Archie, five.
Harry was shining in his praise to Meghan, who occupied the center of the stage with his public exhibitions of affection at the opening ceremony against 40,000 people in Vancouver.
He was seen planting a kiss in Harry and resting his head on his shoulder.
He said: ‘Having my wife supporting me is incredible. I love that she is by my side.
“It is such an important piece for all this adventure.”
Harry told People that he is already anxious for the 2027 games held in Birmingham.
‘It is surprising how, after 10 years, we are still doing this. We will continue the games during the time that is necessary, and the need increases instead of reducing.

“Therefore, the fact that there will be a complete cycle to the United Kingdom is a place that I never thought we would be,” he said.
The first Invictus games were held in London in 2014.
“I wish we could close this because there was no need for it, but as long as it is necessary, we will keep it in operation,” he said.
“I know that the United Kingdom hopes to have the games back to where it started.”
With Meghan now in California, it is said that Harry is taking the day to enjoy the resort in the market in its own rhythm.
He is an avid skier and Will had an idea of what is offered when he had in tubes in Blackcomb Mountain with Meghan and Whistler Mountain, where he presented medals in the adaptive event of alpine skiing.
The assistants are not launching details of Harry’s plans for their last day in Whistler before returning to Vancouver for the climax of the games with the endings and the closing ceremony.

Harry smiled as he posed for photos with athletes while attending the Biatlon event during the three of the Invictus Games on February 11.
In his autobiography he confessed that he always felt guilty for enjoying skiing trips with his father, Prince Carlos, because his mother, Princess Diana, did not like.
He wrote in ‘About’ that he felt like a ‘bad son’ for having fun on these trips.
Harry will attend three events and brave freezing temperatures of up to -11 in Canada.
The prince showed that he does not need Meghan to throw a multitude of fans when he was harassed when he arrived for an Invictus Games ceremony in Whistler Mountain previously.
Fans pushed to approach Harry and take a picture while raising the slopes under the bright sun.
His bodyguard Chris Sánchez, a former presidential service agent of the United States, fought to help Harry through the crowds.
