Kim and Kylie’s rep did not respond when asked by The U.S. Sun about their excessive use of private jets.
GAS-guzzling Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner’s private jets took at least 114 flights in the past year leaving a mammoth carbon footprint – with dozens of flights only lasting a few minutes.
Kim and Kylie own top-of-the-range planes, worth $150M and $72.8M respectively, which have clocked up hundreds of thousands of miles in the last 12 months jet-setting around the world.

Yet some trips haven’t even left Los Angeles County and lasted a mere quarter of an hour.
The stats come from tech wizard Jack Sweeney, 22, who has been using public data to expose the lavish lifestyles of the rich and famous online.
Last week, Taylor Swift threatened to sue Sweeney for publishing the live tracking of her two jets citing “stalking and harassing behavior”.
Just days later Taylor flew 9,000 miles in her private jet from Tokyo to watch boyfriend Travis Kelce in the Super Bowl.
Her lawyer’s “cease” letter was backed by Elon Musk, who called out Sweeney on Twitter saying he “is an awful human being”.
Musk had his beef with him the previous year. He’d offered $5k for Sweeney to stop tracking his jet, but Sweeney refused and, ironically, has a dedicated account @ElonJetNextDay on X.
He even mocked Musk this week, posting on X: “Let’s remember you offered me 5k to stop. Also threatened to sue me, and here we are a year later”.
Sweeney runs numerous websites and social media accounts, some dedicated to just one celeb such as the case with Kim and Kylie.
His site Celebrity Private Jet Tracker states Kim’s Gulfstream G650 has made 69 trips since January last year, that’s 146,097 miles, 119,570 gallons of fuel, and 1,308 metric tons of carbon emissions.
But the real figure is likely to be over 100 trips, as Sweeney admits that his website hasn’t collated every single flight.
‘CAN’T SHE DRIVE?’
Sweeney’s legion of followers has quickly ridiculed Kim and Kylie, especially for the short-haul flights.
The last trip Kim’s plane made from Camarillo to Van Nuys on January 29 outraged some, with one saying: “A f**king 17-minute flight. For f**k sake.”
Another pointed out: “Ridiculous. Can’t she drive?”
A comment on yet another of Kim’s 35-mile LA leaps said: “f**king insane. She could drive there faster”.
Kylie also faces criticism for her plane’s one-day trip to Bordeaux, with a follower quipping: “Kylie just loves pollution.”
