There's a few 'hacks' that the Duchess and her team are believed to use to make sure she is always looking perfect.
Firstly, it has previously been reported that the Duchess of Cambridge and her team lay her dresses out flat on their own chairs during fights.
Royal correspondent Emily Andrews previously told Channel 5 documentary Secrets of the Royal Flight, that she has "been on a plane where Kate's dresses had their own seat to make sure they were kept flat."
She said during the interview: "They are not going to be shoved in the hold just to be squashed by everyone else's."

According to reports from Marie Claire, the Duchess of Cambridge also takes care with items that do get packed into a suitcase.
Kate is said to carefully fold her clothes before wrapping them individually in tissue paper.
As well as this, the Duchess also uses separate garment bags for her dresses to keep them as crease-free as possible.
Of course, all of the Duchess of Cambridge's outfits will have been planned out prior to the trip, all fitting the purpose they need to serve on the day.
