She’s very popular in her native Australia, and now Crown Princess Mary of Denmark has a line of planes from that country named in her honor. 
Budget air carrier Jetstar, a subsidiary of Qantas, has decided to name an aircraft Princess Mary after the Danish royal chose to fly with the airline on her recent holiday.
“Like many Australian mothers, Princess Mary chose to fly with her children on Jetstar,” Jetstar Group general manager commercial operations Bruce Buchanan said.
He said the ‘Princess Mary’ aircraft would be in honour of Mary’s choice to fly Jetstar.
Jetstar is seeking approval from the Royal Danish Embassy to name an A320 aircraft in honour of Princess Mary, the airline said today in a statement.
Crown Princess Mary took her two children, Christian, 2, and Isabella, 17 months to Tasmania, Australia to visit her family last month. Her husband, Crown Prince Frederick joined his family following the closing of the Olympics.
During her stay in Australia, Mary opened a cardiac institution in Sydney and spoke out against cyber-bullying in Melbourne.
