The rapper said they were just moving the plane, but each trip still emitted about five tons of carbon dioxide, according to CelebJets. By Emily Kirkpatrick.

According to the account, each of these flights resulted in about five tons of carbon dioxide emissions. But that doesn't negate the fact that those short jaunts reportedly resulted in around 15 tons of carbon dioxide emissions. The reality star has yet to respond to these reports, however, she has taken to Instagram to brag about her and her boyfriend Travis Scott each owning their own private jet.

Drake gave an explanation amid backlash after his $185 million private jet, dubbed "Air Drake," was used for a meager 14-minute flight from Toronto.

The trek takes only 45 minutes via car. Each of the flights emitted about five tons of carbon dioxide emissions, CelebJets reported. Climate activists dragged the OVO artist for the swift flights that emitted greenhouse gasses that are harmful to the environment.

A month after Air Drake’s Instagram debut, TMZ reported that CargoJet had given Drake the plane as an investment in advertising — in hopes that the rapper’s social media posts would boost their profile. It turns out that the influencer economy is at least partly to blame for this exercise in conspicuous consumption. In 2019, he debuted Air Drake on Instagram in a video that includes him boasting: “No rental, no timeshare.”

In an Instagram comment on a post highlighting the short flights, the rapper commented, “This is just them moving planes to whatever airport they are being stored at for anyone who was interested in the logistics … nobody takes the flight.” Ah! Drake, nor any other passengers, were even on these flights — so it sounds like they weren’t wasteful at all. Predictably, reports of celebrities taking mind-bogglingly short private-jet flights — including multiple flights by Drake’s private jet from Hamilton, Ontario, to Toronto, a trip that takes roughly an hour by car and 14 to 18 minutes by plane — did not go over well.

The Twitter account CelebJets recently shared one of Drake's flights from Toronto Pearson (YYZ) to Hamilton International Airport (YHM).
