Taylor Swift Slashes Private Jet Holdings After Lawsuit Announcement
- IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,February 08 2024]
Taylor Swift has downsized her fleet to one private jet. According to records from the Federal Aviation Authority, the singer parted ways with her Dassault Falcon 900 on January 30.
Previously, the jet was registered under SATA LLC, a company linked to Taylor Swift Productions in Nashville. Swift's holding company acquired the Dassault Falcon 900 in 2009.
Now, the jet is registered to a Missouri-based company established in 2006. Representatives from the company did not respond to Business Insider's request for comment.
The terms of the deal remain unclear, but a new Dassault 900 has a list price of $44 million.
Until January, Swift owned two private jets: the Dassault 900 and a Dassault 7X, registered under Island Jet Inc., connected to Taylor Swift Productions.
The Dassault 900 can accommodate up to 12 passengers, while the Dassault 7X has a larger cabin, carrying up to 16 passengers, suitable for longer flights.
The last flight recorded for the Dassault 900 was on January 30, from Illinois to St. Louis, while the 7X's last flight was on January 28, from Baltimore to Nashville.
If Swift doesn't use her 7X for her Tokyo concerts this week or to attend the Super Bowl in Las Vegas to support her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, she may opt to charter a private plane.
Swift has faced criticism for her private-jet use, topping a list of celebrities with high private-jet carbon emissions in 2022. Her spokesperson previously stated that she purchased carbon credits to offset her jet use.
Despite attempts to fly discreetly, college student Jack Sweeney tracked Swift's flights using public information, prompting a cease-and-desist letter from her legal team, accusing him of stalking and harassing behavior.
