ALBANY — Gov. Cuomo flew to the Mets game in Kansas City Tuesday aboard the team owners’ private jet.
Cuomo had three seats on an aircraft owned by the Wilpons, and his staff said he paid for them out of campaign funds.
“The governor departed today to cheer on our hometown team, flying down with team owners Fred and Jeff Wilpon,” said spokesman Richard Azzopardi. “He will return tonight and be back in the office tomorrow.”
The governor’s campaign also paid face value for the tickets to Game 1, and the airfare will be reimbursed at market value, sources said.
