The Queen’s flight more than doubled the previous record of 2.2 million when Nancy Pelosi flew to Taiwan.
The plane with the coffin of Elizabeth II, which flew from Edinburgh to London, was watched by more than five million people. This made the Queen’s last flight the most watched flight in history. This was reported by Reuters.
Flightradar24 reported that a total of 4.79 million people watched the flight live online, with another quarter of a million people watching on the YouTube channel.
The company said six million people tried to follow the flight within the first minute after the Boeing C17A Globemaster switched on its transponder at Edinburgh Airport, affecting the stability of the platform.
“70 years after her first flight as a queen aboard the BOAC Argonaut Atalanta, Queen Elizabeth II’s final flight was the most tracked flight in Flightradar24’s history,” said the company’s director of communications.
It was previously reported that the coffin containing the body of British Queen Elizabeth II was brought to Buckingham Palace in central London on the evening of Tuesday, September 13.
