text: The Secret Service will have to drive Scooby One and Scooby Two back to Chappaqua without HIllary Clinton riding shotgun. Instead, she's flying coach and toting her own luggage. A United Airlines regional jet carried her back to the East Coast on Thursday from the Omaha, Nebraska airport. Her flight was bound for Newark, New Jersey, the major airport most convenient to her spacious Chappaqua, New York home. A reporter with the liberal news outlet Vox tweeted a photo of Clinton toting her own luggage on Thursday in Omaha . SHE'S JUST LIKE US? A Town Car sedan (right) met Mrs. Clinton on the tarmac in Newark on Thursday, flanked by police and Secret Service vehicles . Hillary Clinton took the fast route home from Iowa to the East Coast: just a 3-hour flight instead of 20 hours of driving time . Clinton had just finished a three-day presidential campaign swing in Council Bluffs, Iowa. That's just a few miles away, and home to a cafe where she held a top-secret meeting with Democratic Party insiders who were told to surrender their cell phones and cameras beforehand. In contrast with the private jet service Hillary has been accustomed to on her storied and lucrative speaking tours, her ride home was a no-frills commercial flight without a First Class seat to be found anywhere. For flights from Omaha to Newark, United uses Embraer ERJ-135 and ERJ-145 jets with nothing but narrow economy-class seats. END OF AN ERA? Scooby's first trip ended with a total of 10 confirmed sightings and more than 1,300 miles driven . Clinton flew back East on an EMbraer ERJ-series plane like this one . EASIER TO RUB ELBOWS: The aircraft Mrs. Clinton took home has narrow chairs and the whole plane is economy class, but at least there's no middle seat . Hillary's handlers have been trying to reposition her as an 'everywoman' eager to meet with ordinary people. But her first Iowa event, promoted as a spontaneous coffee shop sit-down with average voters, turned out to be a carefully staged production whose young participants were driven to the cafe by Clinton's Iowa political director. At least three of the 'everyday Americans' featured in Hillary's campaign launch video have ties to Democratic Party politics. And hours before her flight, Secret Service agents parked the now-familiar 'Scooby' van in a handicapped spot so she would have a shorter walk. On Thursday a Vox reporter photographed Hillary at Omaha's Eppley Field airport, holding on to her own rollaboard luggage and talking with a member of the public. But while she boarded the plane like everyone else, she didn't disembark that way: Afellow passenger tweeted a photo of the Town Car sedan – and police escort – that awaited her in Newark on the airport tarmac. Just one person tweeted that Clinton was on their plane, not unlike her Ohio lunch at Chipotle where no one recognized her . EMBARRASSING: U.S. Secret Service parked 'Scooby' in a handicapped space Thursday while Clinton held a top-secret meeting with Democratic Party officials . It's not clear how Clinton's twin 'Scooby' vans, her armored and customized campaign vehicles, will get back to Chappaqua. The Secret Service did not respond to a request for comment. Agents will likely have to drive the vehicles back themselves. If Hillary were the American president, they would be rolled aboard Air Force One and flown east. But that will have to wait at least until January 2017.

  Met by a Town Car and a police escort – on the tarmac – for what's likely a short trip back to her Chappaqua, New York estate .

  Clinton was, however, photographed pulling her own suitcase down an airport concourse .
