I will book her a ticket and won’t let the faculty there find out so that she gets a chance to see the environment.
As a faculty member, do you see it a minus point if a candidate tells you his wife comes with him ( for sure at his own expense)
Can I take my wife to campus interview ?

As a faculty member, do you see it a minus point if a candidate tells you his wife comes with him ( for sure at his own expense)No, quite the opposite, it shows that you are serious about going there. The only way that I can see this backfiring is if you word it in a way that can be interpreted as you asking for them to pay her tickets.

He explicitly said that 1) he was paying for her ticket, and 2) he would not let the faculty there find out.
Why explicitly mention the very thing he said he wouldn't do as the possible point of failure? You might have as usefully offered: "The only way that I can see this backfiring is if you anaIIy penetrate your wife in the faculty lounge and invite your interviewers for a bukake".

I will definitely pay for her ticket . I am worried that someone may find it unprofessional

It shouldn't be considered unprofessional if you of course won't take her to seminars/department or anything like that. Most people in the hiring committee are seniors, and they understand the family dynamics (and appreciate the fact that you are not just flying around, but putting thought into the decision)
I understand that you will be paying, what I am saying is that you should be careful to not say anything that could be *interpreted as* you asking them to pay her ticket, even if you are not asking for it.

Why do you feel compelled to repeatedly warn him about the very things that he's explicitly stated as being acutely aware of?
Are you phvking daft?
