Rafa Nadal was spotted on an economy flight despite his £125million fortune.

The tennis ace appeared on court to salute Andy Murray’s last Wimbledon match last Fri (5 Jul).

But before heading to SW19 he flew from Majorca to Barcelona in his homeland.

Shocked passengers saw him on the flight sitting in the cheap seats on regular flight.

Nadal, 37 – who has won a whopping 22 Grand Slam titles including 14 French Opens under – didn’t let his success get to his head.

Fan Luigi Gatto said: “Nadal in economy class from Mallorca to Barcelona.”

Susan gushed: “He is the best.

“Just awesome.”

Amit added: : “It’s humbling to see a global superstar like Nadal opting for economy class.

“It reminds us that humility and simplicity often accompany true greatness.

“It’s not the class you fly, but the class you display.”

But due to the flight time being half an hour on June 30, others weren’t as impressed.

Tom said: “It’s a 30 minute flight. I think he’ll manage.”

“Does he really not have a private jet,” asked Gaelan.

Another user quipped: “Bet he went to the toilet just to show all the non-believers that he is actually on the flight.”

Murray – who didn’t play in the singles – was on court for his last match with brother Jamie in the mens’ doubles.

He was due to play mixed doubles with Emma Raducanu but she pulled out due to injury.

Nadal clapped him as he came off court for the last time and watched as he spoke to the Wimbledon crowd.
