According to the findings, the &#8220;All Too Well&#8221; singer embarked on 170 flights since January and has already emitted 8,293.54 tonnes, or 1,184.8 times more than the average person&#8217;s total annual emissions.<\/p>\n<p>The flight time totals 22,923 minutes in the air (or 15.9 days) with the average flight time being just 80 minutes, and the quickest flight from Missouri to Nashville taking just 36 minutes.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Taylor Swift&#39;s Falcon 7X 825 mile (717 NM) flight from ALB to BNA<\/p>\n<p>~ 752 gallons (2,847 liters). <br \/>~ 5,040 lbs (2,286 kg) of jet fuel used. <br \/>~ $5,061 cost of fuel. <br \/>~ 8 tons of CO2 emissions.<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Celebrity Jets (@CelebJets) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CelebJets\/status\/1553434686201946112?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">July 30, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Reps for the singer responded to a request from\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.etonline.com\/taylor-swifts-representatives-respond-to-blatantly-incorrect-private-jet-usage-backlash-188333\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Entertainment Tonight<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>for comment, telling the publication that the majority of flights weren&#8217;t actually for Swift. &#8220;Taylor\u2019s jet is loaned out regularly to other individuals. To attribute most or all of these trips to her is blatantly incorrect,&#8221; a spokesperson said.<\/p>\n<p>It comes after Kylie Jenner was criticized for allegedly taking a <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/kylie-jenner-private-jet-controversy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">17-minute flight<\/a> in her private jet from Camarillo to Van Nuys in California last month. The flight information was published to the Twitter account @CelebJets.

Instead, her on-again off-again beau Travis Scott came in at number 10 while her older sister Kim Kardashian came in at number 7 with 57 flights. Other celebrities to make the infamous list included Oprah Winfrey, Mark Wahlberg, filmmaker Steven Spielberg, Blake Shelton (the husband to Gwen Stefani), Alex Rodriguez, Jay-Z and boxer Floyd
