Sir Keir Starmer has been nicknamed "never-here Keir" by his own colleagues as he racks up the air miles while in No10.
The Prime Minister will have spent around one-sixth of his leadership trotting the globe on foreign trips, and has been warned to re-focus his attentions to the UK.
It has been said that ministers have called for Mr Starmer to "get off the plane" as he continues to break records - he is Britain's most travelled Prime Minister.
Mr Starmer has already visited 44 countries during his 17 months in office.
And they haven't exactly been particularly close to him, either. Mr Starmer was in Brazil last week and has visited Samoa and Mumbai already.
The Prime Minister's popularity is currently at its lowest since he became party leader in 2020 and is facing calls to send other ministers such as Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy on some trips instead.
A government source said: “Why is he constantly on a plane? He has a deputy prime minister who was literally foreign secretary and would rather like to carry on doing that. Give it to him. It’s nice to feel important abroad but he needs to stick at home."
“He should share the load, is the polite way of putting it. He’s got a perfectly good deputy and foreign secretary. It’s just not tangible for the electorate," another said.

Rachel Reeves isn't ‘playing fast and loose with people’s money’ says Lisa Nandy
Rachel Reeves will not “play fast and loose with people’s money”, Lisa Nandy said, as reports emerge the Chancellor is set to scrap the proposed income tax hike in the upcoming Budget.
She explained to the BBC: “What I can tell you is as somebody who sits around that Cabinet table, who has discussions with Rachel and has known her for a long time, is that she won’t play fast and loose with people’s money.
“She does take her promises seriously, and she will do everything that she can to make sure that those choices are the fairest possible choices.”

Lisa Nandy says BBC will deal with Donald Trump legal action with 'seriousness it demands'
Lisa Nandy has said she is confident that the BBC is dealing with the threat of legal action from President Donald Trump with the "seriousness" that it requires.
Ms Nandy told the BBC: “The BBC, as you know, is independent of Government and so they are having those direct discussions with the US administration and with their own lawyers, but I have been speaking daily to the chair of the board, the director-general and other senior leadership within the BBC.
“I am confident that they’re gripping this with the seriousness that it demands.
“They’ve consulted lawyers and they believe that there is no grounds for defamation, not least because the programme was not aired in the United States, because there were other voices on the programme that spoke in support of the president, and because he went on to win that election during which the programme was aired.
“Nevertheless, the senior leadership at the highest levels believed that this was a really serious editorial failing.“That is the basis on which they have apologised to the president, and apologised to Parliament and the public as well.”
Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves SCRAP hated income tax raid plans in panic over voter fury
Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves have scrapped their highly contentious plans to raise income tax

Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves have scrapped their highly contentious plans to raise income tax over fears of voter fury - and amid the prospect of a Labour coup.
With just 12 days remaining until Ms Reeves's "nightmare before Christmas" Budget, officials have told the Financial Times the Downing Street duo have committed to a major U-turn and returned to the confines of Labour's manifesto.
It is said the pair "ripped up" proposals to raise the basic and higher rates of income tax specifically over fears of angering MPs and the electorate.
Exactly a week ago, the Chancellor wrote to the Office for Budget Responsibility confirming that hiking the levy would be among the "major measures" announced on November 26.
