Spotted: 30 celebrities on private jets

Legendary musician Lionel Richie and his model daughter Sofia shared a series of snaps from a private jet jaunt to New York in September 2017. The pair were joined by other members of the Richie family who visited the American city from their home in LA to support Sofia as she walked in Jeremy Scott's New York Fashion Week runway show.

One reason many people choose to fly by private jet is that it offers unparalleled comfort and privacy to work while travelling. Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson demonstrated this perfectly when he shared these snaps of himself doing 'homework' for his upcoming movie Skyscraper while on a quick jaunt to Vancouver in Canada where the film is shooting.

When you're an international pop icon with a world tour and hectic promotional schedule to stick to flying private is the only way to go. It can also be super stylish, as Kylie Minogue showed with this fun snap taken on her arrival to the UK in March 2017. But the biggest benefit to having your own plane? Flexibility - Kylie shared a picture of herself on a gorgeous tropical beach just days later.

American model Karlie Kloss swapped New York Fashion Week for a relaxing break in St Barths in February 2017 but that didn't mean she forgot all the hard work going on back home. Posing on the private jet ready to whisk her off to the Caribbean, she posted this image with the caption, "St Barths bound. Wearing my @DVF wrap dress on this runway...and wishing good luck to @DVF and @saunderstudio on their #NYFW runway today".

As one of the favourites to win the prestigious European Championships it seems only right that the Spanish football team should be treated to a little A-list treatment. Goalkeeper David De Gea shared this picture of the impeccably turned out team disembarking from their private jet when they arrived in France ahead of the tournament on June 10, 2016.

Cristiano Ronaldo - a man roundly considered one of the world's best footballers and a sports star often spotted on luxury yacht vacations - celebrated Real Madrid's recent Champions League win in style on board a private jet with a group of friends in June 2016.

When you're on tour as a member of one of the world's biggest girl groups then how better to travel the world than on a private jet? Recently spotted in Singapore and Australia before heading off to holiday on a luxury yacht in Marbella, Little Mix's Leigh-Anne Pinnock shows just how glamorous flying private can be.

Reality TV star Kim Kardashian also headed to the French Riviera in May 2016. Making herself right at home, Kardashian is clearly in no need of a beginner's guide to flying by private jet and cheekily captioned this snap of herself spreading out on board "Cramped".

As one of the most successful pop stars in the world it's no surprise that sometimes Justin Bieber is forced to take overnight flights between tour locations. Luckily flying private means he has access to a comfortable bed that even the best first class cabins can't compete with.

Flying private may come as second nature to some celebrities but for Hollywood A-lister Chris Pratt it is still an experience worth sharing. He posted this image to social media with the caption, "Got to take a jet. Which is the pinnacle of luxury travel. So blessed and fortunate and still embracing how fantastic this is. Some people lose that. I don't think I will. Who knows? I hope not to."
