He used military jets more often, and they cost more than civilian aircraft to fly. He's worth $13 million, but a million bucks is a big dent. Now that he's resigned, he won't be eager to repay that much money.
Some people (Trump included) look at these sweet government posts as wealth amplifiers.

A million bucks worth of high class transportation free, and the bragging rights are priceless.

Trump is the king of projection. Anything he attacks others for, he does himself.

So much for draining the swamp. Seems like most of them are swimming laps in it, diving in and rolling all over in it.

Got any factual data to back up that assertion?

You mean reimbursing for his seat on these flights as opposed to the entire flight?

Maybe he expected his aids/ entourage to pay for their own seats.

Kellyanne Conway accompanied him on some of these flights.

More will be revealed.
