The Most Unusual Requests on Private Jets

A flight to nowhere

For one famous couple, life on the ground was getting too hectic. So to escape the non-stop celebrity life of exclusive parties and frantic crowds, they chartered a private jet to, well, nowhere. 

According to a private jet charter booking app, for six hours one A-list couple indulged in expensive wine and relaxed with onboard spa treatments, all before satisfying their taste buds with a gourmet meal prepared by a private chef accompanied by the live vocals of an onboard opera singer. Truly the perfect way to escape the hustle and bustle of Hollywood life. After six hours touring the clouds, the pair landed at the same airport they departed from, making this one of the most lavish celebrity dates ever.

Specific flowers

Nothing compares to the sweet scent of a fresh bouquet of flowers. Perhaps it was for this reason that a mystery celebrity requested a cabin filled with white Casablanca lilies for the duration of their private jet charter.

Who do you think it was? Mariah Carey, Katy Perry and Paul McCartney are just a few of the A-list’s known flower lovers, but we may never find the celebrity culprit.

McDonald’s in the sky

Food has a huge impact on our mood, which may explain why some of the most outrageous celebrity private jet charter requests are food orientated. A private jet company shared how a celebrity customer insisted on tucking into a McDonald's Filet-O-Fish burger during their flight. They also demanded the burger was delivered fresh, meaning it had to be procured as the plane was ready to take off.

Here are some other food-related demands:

• One celebrity would only board the private jet once it was stocked with Cool Ranch Doritos and Sparkling Ice Kiwi Strawberry

• Another brought along a team of food tasters to ensure the chef-prepared private jet meal was perfect for their palette

• One even demanded that birthday candles were lit mid-flight, which meant a firefighter had to be on board for safety reasons.

A flight for clothes

Most celebrities take great pride in their appearance, as anyone who has read a fashion magazine or watched an awards ceremony knows. So, it should come as no surprise that after a successful shopping spree, one celebrity faced a huge dilemma: how were they going to get their haul of new outfits back to their home city? With a separate private jet charter, of course.

Indeed, travelling via private jet means you never have to worry about those pesky baggage restrictions at check-in. The only time it becomes problematic, as it was in this particular celebrity’s case, is when the cargo is too heavy for the plane to take off!

Three more celebrity private jet requests

With these outrageous stories, it seems impossible that there could be more, but there are. Here are three more:

1. One celebrity requested that no natural sunlight enter the plane, requiring complete darkness in order to board the aircraft and travel

2. Another requested that an expert dog trainer be on board the jet to train their precious pooch during the flight

3. Lastly, a celebrity once flew out the world's best poker players to join him on his private jet charter from Europe to Vegas in order to help him prepare for his two-day gambling trip in Vegas.
