Kim Kardashian's Gulfstream G650ER flies 6,700 miles from Honolulu to Singapore for Lewis Hamilton's F1 Sprint race
Why It MattersLong-range business jets increasingly function as scheduling tools for high-profile individuals juggling global commitments, with ultra-long-range range capability enabling attendance that would otherwise be logistically impossible.
What happened
Kim Kardashian's private Gulfstream G650ER, registered N1980K, departed Honolulu, Hawaii on Friday, 9 October, and flew nonstop for 12 hours and 41 minutes, covering approximately 6,700 miles before landing in Singapore early Saturday morning.

Kardashian was then spotted at the back of the Scuderia Ferrari garage during the Singapore Grand Prix Sprint race at the Marina Bay Street Circuit, wearing a pink halter-neck maxi dress. The 45-year-old Skims founder was there to support her boyfriend, seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton. After a 30-minute rain delay, Hamilton launched from sixth on the grid and moved up to third place.
The Singapore appearance was Kardashian's first official visit to the Formula 1 paddock since her debut at the Monaco Grand Prix in early June, where Hamilton also finished on the podium in second place.
Industry impact & what to watch
Cases like this illustrate how ultra-long-range jets such as the G650ER are used to compress travel between distant points on a tight personal schedule, where a single nonstop sector replaces what would otherwise require routing through intermediate stops. The aircraft's range let the Honolulu-to-Singapore trip happen in one continuous flight rather than a multi-leg itinerary, which matters for anyone whose commitments span two separate time zones within the same race weekend.
In the private-charter and fractional-ownership segment, this kind of trip underscores why demand for the longest-range cabin classes tracks high-profile sporting and entertainment calendars — buyers and lessees value guaranteed nonstop capability over cost efficiency when a fixed event time cannot move. Whether Kardashian attends further races this season, and whether her travel pattern again pairs with Hamilton's race calendar, will depend on both their schedules going forward.
