Since his arrest on September 16, Sean “Diddy” Combs, who faces sex trafficking charges in Manhattan federal court, has reportedly earned $4.1 million.
The Sun reports that Combs has been making millions by leasing out his $60 million private jet to wealthy passengers who don’t realise he owns it.
The 14-seat aircraft, with a range of 6,750 miles, is being rented through operator Silver Air. Silver Air, which manages the flights, calls itself a provider of a “comprehensive fleet of luxury aircraft.”
The jet, black in colour, is promoted on celebrity charter broker sites like Jettly. The affluent clients booking the plane are unaware that it belongs to the 55-year-old imprisoned owner of Bad Boy Records.
Reports say the Gulfstream has been rented out nearly every other day. Since appearing on rental sites, the G550 has flown 149,540 miles — roughly six times around the globe.
Each flight has averaged 1,186 miles, similar to the distance between Los Angeles and Dallas. The Jettly listing shows that renting Combs’ jet costs $32,597 per trip.
Over the last eight months, the plane has completed 126 trips, bringing in about $4.1 million for Combs.
