Kylie Jenner Is Getting Major Backlash for Seemingly Taking an Incredibly Short Private Jet Flight
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
Kylie Jenner is getting some pretty intense criticism on social media for allegedly (emphasis on allegedly!) taking a 17-minute flight in her private jet. Which, obviously, isn't the best for the environment (that is an....understatement).
According to Twitter account @CelebJets, which tracks celebrity planes using available flight patterns, Kylie flew from Camarillo to Van Nuys, California, last week. The flight was initially estimated to take about 3 minutes, though Page Six reports that @CelebJets later clarified it took more like 17 minutes.

Twitter was quick to call Kylie out for the fuel use and CO2 emission for such a short trip, noting that "80% of people have never taken a plane and Kylie Jenner is out here taking regular 10 minute flights, 5 flights in the last week under 30 minutes, one was 3 minutes long. Her carbon footprint for one ten minute flight, is more than some people make in a year."
And another Twitter user said, "Europe is on fire, meanwhile Kylie Jenner is taking 15 minute trips in her private jet. I could recycle everything, buy all my clothes second hand, compost and grow my own food for the rest of my life and it wouldn’t even begin to offset the footprint from one of her flights."
More reactions ahead:

The fact that Kylie Jenner took a private jet for 3 MINUTES when all she needed to do was drive for about 40 minutes is wild to me

Can’t wait to see Kylie Jenner post environmental awareness pics on her stories as if she isn’t single-handedly doing more damage to the environment than most of us with her 3 min flights 🥰

Can people not comment "goals" under Kylie Jenner's very tone deaf picture about taking out a private jet for a short trip?! Like what is goals about that? Polluting the earth and not giving a damn about our planet?! I swear when they say Eat the Rich, they mean the Kardashians.

Kylie Jenner alone with her jet made more co2 in 6 months than what I'd make in 3 years just by living life normally https://t.co/pAuD3E86ww

Kylie hasn't commented on the backlash to her private jet use as of yet. Earlier this week, she posted a photo of herself and Travis Scott standing next to both of their jets with the caption "you wanna take mine or yours ?" TBD on if that picture is related to the short trip she allegedly took!
