Ingvar Kamprad, founder of IKEA, is said to still fly by coach and be cheap in general. This might just be the public image he's presenting though.

- schmittz 15y agoHe is, in general, extremely frugal. However, he also owns a chalet and Porsche that he drives when at the private chalet (although, I'd argue that for someone worth more than 20 billion dollars, that's fairly frugal.)
- Chrono 15y agoI seem to recall that IKEA offers their more frequent flying employees business class tickets but if they choose to take the standard (slave) class tickets they get 50% of the difference. I don't know if this is the case any more but I am reasonably certain it was some time ago, alas I have no source.
