I see many Taylor swift posts with plane. Plane out of plane and more plane out of plane. Walking dog in plane, why so much plane?

Taylor uses her private jet way too much. But recently she threatened the Twitter account tracking the plane's movement. So that's probably why the memes are coming out now.

In particular she used a private jet for a 13 minute journey

13 minutes by air, or 13 minutes by ground, out of curiosity?

[–] SgtAStrawberry@lemmy.world 17 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I imagine by air, but hope it was by ground and that there is a video of that one.

Takes off on one runway, lands at another runway at the same airport

Did not think of that one.

That one just seems like there had to be more to it. I know very little about private plane usage but I find it hard to believe that there wasnt more to the story. Hangar space, maintenence, ground fees, lack of accommodation, etc. Even if I had absolute fuck you money and her kind of schedule it saved an estimated 15 minutes.

Maybe. I think I saw something about it being potentially a maintenance flight and she wasn't even onboard. But the memes are already in motion now

So it's basically like when Elon Musk was whining about the same thing, and people made a point to spam his plane's movements everywhere.
