Melania Trump's Hotel Charges Were $174,000 For A Day Trip To Toronto: Records
Mary Papenfuss
First lady Melania Trump’s hotel bills for a day trip to Toronto last year added up to an astonishing $174,000, according to federal expense documents reported by Quartz. She did not spend the night.
The startling expenditures dwarfed the $95,000 cost of Trump’s stop at the InterContinental Cairo Semiramis, where she stayed for less than half a day at the end of her tour of Africa last month.
Trump’s spokeswoman Stephanie Grisham implied in an email to Quartz that the first lady’s “advance team†was responsible for some of the costs. The team ensures “safety measures, medical care, communications, motorcade needs and logistics are all in place,†she wrote. They’re all “legally required for official travel,†she added.
But federal expense documents reported separate, additional costs for the advance team that added up to $18,000, according to Quartz.

If these people go anywhere, minimally, it must be at least, say, $30-50 thousand.
In Toronto for those "Invictus" games, those are important, Prince Harry was there as well.
