Celebrity private jets
When we see celebrities on social media inside of a private jet, our imaginations run wild. Everyone has always dreamed of having their own private plane, but many celebrities are doing it every day. If you think about it though, it makes sense because to fly commercial is so inconvenient nowadays. For most celebrities, time is money, so flying on a private jet is logical. Let's take a look at the world of the high net worth, and all of their assistants.
VIDEO: The most expensive celebrity private jets
Tom Cruise has his own private jet, and he's a pilot
The Mission Impossible star takes private aviation to a whole new level. Not own does Tom Cruise own four private jets, but he can fly them too (like John Travolta). The cost, though, isn't something that Cruise needs to worry about because his net worth has been reported at $600,000.
Because Tom Cruise has his very own air force, he has several different size planes. One small plane, a P-51 Mustang, is an old WWII plane. If he needs to take longer flights, then he'll likely go for a Gulfstream IV so that he has plenty of room for family seating. It's even been reported that one of his planes has a jacuzzi. That's living in luxury!
Taylor Swift's private jet
No other celebrity private jets are as controversial as Taylor Swift's plane. She has had a lot of bad press about flying all over the world and burning up a lot of fuel, which of course hurts the environment.
Taylor Swift has a Dassault Falcon 900, which can fit 19 passengers with a range of 4,600 miles. So, in other words, you can fly clear across the country without breaking a sweat; and you can bring your whole celebrity entourage with you (assistants, publicity agents, personal trainers, private chefs, etc.).

Kylie Jenner's private jet
Kylie Jenner is another celebrity that likes to post photos onboard her planes, sometimes referred to as Kylie Air. As a social media mogul in her own right, Kylie Jenner isn't the only one of the Kardashians that has her own plane.
Like Swift, Kylie has taken a little heat for using a private jet so much. But how could someone so famous fly around the globe in economy class? It isn't very realistic for her critics to suggest it.

Kim Kardashian doesn't need a private jet charter
Because Kim Kardashian is a billionaire, she's got to travel in style. Her private jet is valued at over $150,000,000, so she's living in the lap of luxury. Kim has a plane with a dining room and plenty of cabin space so she can rest easy and have a comfortable trip.
Kim is richest member of the Kardashian clan, so of course she needs to have the biggest private jet. As a private plane owner, Kim needs her own flight crew as well. That's the part not often talked about. The plane itself is a large expense but having a flight a crew is also very costly (not counting, naturally, the entourage with nannies, personal assistants, and personal chefs). Kim Air, we salute you.

What model jets do celebrities own?
It's very important when purchasing a private jet that you speak with a broker who knows your needs. Considerations include the level of usage, miles to be flown, distance, and number of passengers you will have. Some of the popular jets that celebrities like include the Bombardier Global Express XRS, Embraer Legacy, Gulfstream V, and the Bombardier Challenger.
If you're a billionaire like Bill Gates or Oprah Winfrey and you have a lot of money to spend, then you can get a private Boeing jet. The larger jets will have a longer maximum range and two bathrooms. The large Boeing jets have a top speed of 600 mph, so you can arrive at destinations much faster.
