Jay-Z, Drake, Diddy, And More Rappers Top Celebrity Private Jet Leaderboard

It’s no secret that our favorite celebrities do a lot of traveling. Whether it be for business or pleasure, it doesn’t exactly come as a surprise that they spend far more time in the air than most. There’s even a website that allows fans to track their planes, CelebrityPrivateJetTracker. On this site, there’s also a leaderboard, which reveals exactly how many private flights certain celebrities have taken. Various rappers have earned high spots on this list, including Diddy, Jay-Z, Travis Scott, Drake, and more.

Diddy has taken 308 flights on his Gulfstream V, for example, totaling 415,139 miles. Travis Scott has taken 293 flights on his Embraer E-190, which adds up to 402,344 miles. Jay-Z has taken 291 flights on his Gulfstream V, or 386,642 miles.

As for Drake, he’s taken a total of 116 flights on his Boeing 767, or 77,026 miles. He was reportedly gifted the plane back in 2019, and now refers to it as “Air Drake.” In August of this year, he unveiled some big renovation plans for the aircraft. Instead of the bottom of the plane saying “If you’re reading this we left,” it now says “Chances are she’s onboard.” The sky-blue cloud design on the exterior was dreamed up by the late Virgil Abloh.

In the past, various artists including Drake have received backlash for seemingly excessive use of their private jets. In 2022, for instance, critics noticed that he took three flights under 20 minutes within a month. He later took to Instagram to clarify. “This is just them moving planes to whatever airport they are being stored at for anyone who was interested in the logistics…nobody takes that flight,” he wrote.
