With 170 flights in a single year, Taylor’s Falcon 7X isn’t exactly gathering dust. Her reps claimed many of those weren’t her personal trips, but that didn’t stop the internet from lighting up. Her jet reportedly had the highest carbon emissions of any celeb on the list. It’s a hard pill to swallow when you're also promoting environmental causes.

Mayweather doesn’t just travel he performs. Whether it’s posing mid-flight or casually broadcasting from inside his Gulfstream III, the man flies loud. His emissions? More than 1,000 times what an average person produces in a year. For someone nicknamed “Money,” the extravagance tracks. But critics are asking at what cost?

Kim didn’t just buy a plane she built an experience. “Kim Air,” her custom $150 million Gulfstream G650ER, took a year to design and features things like two spa-style bathrooms and a dreamy sleep cabin. But what really stirred up the backlash? Four ultra-short flights in under a month. Social media wasn’t kind.

In true Kanye fashion, he went over the top chartering a private Boeing 747. That’s a full-on commercial airliner turned personal palace, complete with a marble bathroom and double bed. Most airlines need 400 passengers to justify that jet. Kanye used it... solo. Allegedly, it was a gift from Adidas. Even so, the internet had questions. Lots of them.

Yes and then some. Their Bombardier Challenger 850, gifted by Beyoncé to Jay Z, logged more than 13 days in the air in one year. That’s over 300 hours of flight time. Fans love them, but even loyal followers started side-eyeing the environmental impact. Turns out, love may lift you up but it also leaves a trail of jet fuel.

So, what’s the deal? Private jets aren’t new, and no one expects celebs to fly economy. But in an age where climate change is front-page news, the optics matter. Luxury is fine but maybe not when it comes with emissions larger than small towns.

Sometimes, flying high means falling hard in the court of public opinion.
