As the owner of Tesla, SpaceX, and X, Elon Musk is always on the go to meet with business owners, world leaders, and other personalities to do business and influence the masses. The tech billionaire can do with with not just one, but five different jets to which he has exclusive access to.
With the revenue Musk rakes in each year, paying for all these jets and crews for flights and maintenance is just a drop in the bucket for him. Get a glimpse of Musk's fleet and what makes each jet special to tycoons like him.
Dassault Falcon 900B

Musk's first private jet, the Falcon, was acquired in 2012 before Musk was even known as a billionaire. The aircraft at the time was priced at $26 million.
Manufactured by French aviator Dassault, the first iterations of the plane were made in the early 80s, and was a jet considered to be “way ahead of its time”. Link
The 900B seats 12 passengers and sports a classic interior that holds up nicely to this day.
Musk's Falcon reportedly hasn't been flown since 2016, according to a report from PlaneLogger.
Gulfstream G550

Musk is apparently a big fan of Gulfstream jets, as he owns two G550s. The U.S. aviator started to assemble the G550 in the early 2000s, but has been discontinued since.
Musk reportedly purchased both models pre-owned, which has cost him roughly around $14 million for each jet. One was reportedly built in 2004 and the other in 2007 (https://jackstech.net/falconlanding/). In comparison, a new G550 would cost $62 million.
The ultra-long-range jet sports two Rolls-Royce BF710-C4-11 engines and has room for 19 passengers in three different cabins.
Both jets are reportedly still active today, intended for flights for SpaceX and Tesla employees.
Gulfstream G650ER

Known as a very popular jet among billionaires like Jeff Bezos, the GulfSteam 650ER is known to be a very fast plane that broke over 100 world speed records. Despite this, the aircraft is still the largest jet the company made at the time — both 99 feet in length and width. This jet also seats 19 in four different cabins.
The G650ER was built in 2015. Until Musk upgraded, the G650ER was Musk's numero uno and had reportedly logged over 100,000 miles each year. Musk purchased this plane in 2016 to the tune of $70 million.
This plane was tracked by then-college student Jack Sweeney, who posted flight data on the jet on the account @ElonJet. Musk offered $5,000 to for the man to stop tracking the jet. After multiple suspensions, Sweeney still operates under the handle @ElonJetNextDay.
Gulfstream G700

Musk pre-purchased the new Gulfstream G700 in 2022 and made his first flight in 2023 for a whopping $75 million. The plane didn't even receive FAA-type certification until late March of 2024.
The G700 is the largest plane in Gulfstream's fleet with a length of 109 feet and a wingspan of 103 feet. The jet is souped with two Rolls-Royce Pearl 700 engines. While this jet too seats 19 people, it's among five different cabins. Passengers also feel like royalty with the cabins releasing plasma-ironized air to ensure every square inch is bacteria-free.
How many flights Elon plans to take in his new jet remains to be seen, but he's certainly thinking ahead with how he uses his jets and how he prioritizes work over spending time in the air. For a man who owns three different corporations, all these planes can come in handy for speedy travel for himself as well as his staff.
