Minor royals Viscount Linley and Lady Sarah Chatto regularly book Dial-a-Cab taxis. Now, financial advisers have devised plans for more senior royals to use the cabs wherever possible.
Members of the Royal household staff, meanwhile, are being encouraged to use public transport or even walk to official events or meetings instead of using cabs.
“Chelsy Davy, Viscount Linley and Lady Sarah Chatto have all used the Dial-a-Cab service and this is a cost-cutting measure. Viscount Linley is a great fan of black cabs,” a source said.
