Flightradar24 shows hundreds of private jets departing Bay Area within 2 hours of Super Bowl ending
Many A-list celebrities were spotted attending the Super Bowl. Around 1,000 private jets descended on the Bay Area ahead of the event.
A Flightradar24 timelapse of flight movements in the Bay Area after the Super Bowl has taken social media by surprise. It captures hundreds of flights leaving the area within just a few hours.
According to a Daily Mail report, approximately 600 private jets are believed to have left five Bay Area airports, including San Francisco, San Jose, Oakland, Livermore and Hayward.
“Last night’s #SuperBowlLX private jet exodus was wild! Five Bay Area airports (SFO, SJC, OAK, LVK & HWD) together saw a 1,136% increase in bizjet departures during the immediate post-game hours—compared to the previous Sunday,” Flightradar24 tweeted along with a graphic. It shows private jets taking off from the area.
The exodus included Kim Kardashian's private jet, according to Business Insider. Kardashian's Gulfstream G650, which costs $65 million, is reportedly registered to an LLC. Her plane took off about two hours after the game ended. According to ADS-B Exchange flight-tracking data cited by the outlet, it flew to Van Nuys Airport in Los Angeles.
