Drake Responds To Criticism Of Alleged 14-Minute Private Jet Ride

Author Autumn Hawkins
LONG BEACH, CALIFORNIA - OCTOBER 30: Drake speaks onstage during Drake's Till Death Do Us Part rap battle on October 30, 2021 in Long Beach, California.

Kylie Jenner caught some heat last week for her viral Instagram post of her flexing about her and Travis Scott’s private jets and for an alleged 12-minute flight. Now, Drake is also catching some backlash from an alleged 14-minute flight on “Air Drake.” The flight in question was from Hamilton, Ontario to his hometown of Toronto, Ontario which would take approximately 14 minutes in the air and a little over an hour driving. However, the Honestly, Nevermind rapper has responded, refuting these allegations.

“This is just them moving planes to whatever airport they are being stored at, for anyone who was interested in the logistics,” the Toronto rapper wrote under Cultural Millenials Instagram post. “Nobody takes that flight,” Drake confirmed.
