Sean “Diddy” Combs may be fighting serious charges in court, but his business ventures are still rolling along. The US Sun reports that the music and fashion mogul has quietly turned his $60 million Gulfstream G550 into a money maker while he sits behind bars.
Since September 2024, Diddy’s jet has taken off roughly one hundred twenty-six times, logging close to one hundred fifty thousand miles. Aviation experts say that a single charter flight on a G550 can cost at least $32,000, depending on the distance and any extras. At that rate, the jet could have already produced well over four million dollars in revenue.
The Gulfstream G550 is known for its long range, flying more than 6,000 miles without stopping. It seats up to 19 passengers in a luxury cabin that features lie-flat seats, a full galley, and high-speed Wi-Fi. Renting a jet like this appeals to celebrities, business leaders, and wealthy vacationers who want privacy and speed. By leasing out the plane instead of letting it sit idle, Diddy keeps cash flowing while he focuses on his legal defense.
Speaking of court, there was a new development in his federal trial this week. Diddy’s lawyers asked the judge for a mistrial, claiming an arson investigator’s testimony could mislead the jury. The judge removed the disputed comments from the record but ruled they were not serious enough to halt the case.
