New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (Democrat) used a NYPD counter-terrorism plane to travel between the city and Montreal, where he is taking a vacation.
The plane has sensors for detecting radioactive material from so-called dirty bombs and is not normally used to fly the mayor, the New York Post reports, but de Blasio’s office confirmed it flew him from Montreal to Westchester County Airport in New York on Thursday.
"NYPD is transporting him in their plane," de Blasio spokesman Eric Phillips said.
De Blasio was in Montreal when the plane came to pick him up and take him to the memorial for slain NYPD detective Miosotis Familia. He took the same plane back to Montreal from Westchester to continue his vacation.
One source told the Post that the use of the plane was "excessive."
"It is very unusual to go on an international flight to go pick up the mayor," the source said..
