DJ Khaled's Global 6500 N2320 Flies Los Angeles to Las Vegas in 44 Minutes
Why It MattersShort hops like this show large-cabin long-range jets regularly flying sub-hour regional legs, a demand pattern that ties up high-end aircraft on routes far below their design range.
A Bombardier Global 6500 registered N2320, associated with DJ Khaled, flew 205 nm from Los Angeles International (KLAX) to Las Vegas's Harry Reid International (KLAS) on October 25, 2026. The flight took 44 minutes, averaging 279 knots ground speed and reaching a highest altitude of 25,000 feet. The leg covered about 3 percent of the aircraft's 6,600 nm range and burned an estimated 301 US gallons of fuel, producing about 2.9 metric tons of CO2.
It was the first tracked landing at Las Vegas in the 18-flight window from August 4 to October 22. Khaled's home base is Miami International Airport, 1,887 nm from Harry Reid International. In the tracked window, the aircraft's most common destinations were Miami (six landings), Teterboro (four) and Paris (two). Before this flight it had been on the ground in Los Angeles for about three days.
In the 30 days before the flight, N2320 flew three legs: Miami to Los Angeles on October 22 (2,036 nm, the longest), Teterboro to Miami on October 13, and Miami to Teterboro on October 7. Together they totaled 9.4 hours in the air, about 3,934 nm and an estimated 36,837 kg of CO2.
Other tracked aircraft that landed at Las Vegas in the preceding 24 hours included a Gulfstream V operated by Peter Thiel, about 19 hours earlier, and a Bombardier Global 7500 operated by Stan Kroenke, about 2 hours earlier. No public appearance or event tied to Khaled was found in Las Vegas for the date of the flight.
