What We Know So Far About the Queen’s Funeral Plans

What we know so far about the Queen’s funeral plans is that her coffin will be transported to the airport by hearse. It will then be flown from Edinburgh to London by the Royal Air Force, and processed on a gun carriage to Westminster Abbey. The funeral service will be held live on television.

The Queen’s coffin is carried out of St Giles’ Cathedral by hearse, with Princess Anne riding along. The state hearse will travel to Edinburgh Airport, where it will be flown to Buckingham Palace. The Queen will be laid to rest in the Bow Room at Buckingham Palace.

The coffin will be flown by a specially-built plane from Edinburgh Airport to RAF Northolt, where the funeral will take place on September 19. Princess Anne will accompany the coffin, as she has done since the Queen’s death at Balmoral. The coffin will then be transported to Buckingham Palace, where King Charles VI and Camilla will receive her body.

Thousands of well-wishers lined the streets of Edinburgh to pay their last respects to the Queen. The honour guard and royal archers lined the streets to welcome the coffin. The hearse carrying the coffin left the cathedral, accompanied by a guard of honour. A C-17 Globemaster aircraft, which has served as a military transport in the past, carried the queen’s coffin 102 miles to the airport.

A large crowd has gathered in central London to pay their respects. Operation London Bridge covers the last journey to the capital and the state funeral of the late Queen. The coffin was flown by Royal Air Force from Edinburgh to London on Tuesday, with Princess Anne accompanying it. The coffin was then flown to Buckingham Palace, where King Charles III and Queen Consort Camilla met.

The procession of the Queen’s coffin will leave Buckingham Palace at 2:22 p.m. (9:22 a.m. Eastern) with four soldiers carrying her coffin. The coffin will be adorned with an imperial state crown and a wreath of flowers. Thousands of people are expected to attend the funeral. Police are estimating that the queue will stretch up to four miles, and the procession could last for hours.

A 123-year-old gun carriage will process the coffin to Westminster Abbey. The Royal Navy will pull the carriage with ropes. It is a tradition dating back to the funeral of Queen Victoria. Around 200 musicians will also accompany the coffin on its final journey. The doors to Westminster Hall will close at 6:30am and the doors to Westminster Abbey will open at 8am for the state funeral service.

There are several factors to consider when watching the Queen’s funeral plans. Firstly, there’s the matter of her death, which will be televised around the world. There are 2,000 guests expected at the state funeral, as well as the King of England and the rest of the royal family. It will also be a humbling and difficult task, but one that will be fitting for her extraordinary reign. The state funeral will take place against a backdrop of deep grief and a lot of people will be paying tribute to Queen Elizabeth II’s long life and dedicated service.

The funeral will be held in the Church of England, which was founded in the 1530s by Henry VIII. The rites of the burial will be based on the Order of Burial of the Dead, from the Book of Common Prayer. The monarch and her spouse must be Protestant, and the law prohibits them from being Catholic.

The ceremony will follow strict protocol, and the body of the deceased will be carried in a state gun carriage by military personnel. The service will last approximately one hour and include the playing of the Last Post, and a two-minute moment of silence for the nation. The coffin will be carried in a procession by Charles and a large number of military personnel to Hyde Park Corner.

Hundreds of thousands of mourners are expected to line up in Westminster Hall to pay their last respects to the Queen. The coffin will be draped in a white floral wreath, and will be accompanied by pine trees from her Balmoral estate and flowers from Windsor Castle and Windsor. The Royal Marines Band will play as the procession passes. The cortege will travel through the city on a bridge, which stretches over the River Thames.
