It’s a non-negotiable for the reality TV star.
Kim Kardashian’s private jet is as luxurious as it gets.
But “Kim Air” passengers must respect the rule of the founder of SKIMS to make it so.
Its Gulfstream G65OER – a model also owned by Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos – was initially priced at $95 million.
She would have bought it in February 2022.
However, when you add in the modifications , renovations and lavish design , it ended up paying US$150 million .
The G650ER is the extended-range version of Gulfstream’s G650 , which entered the private jet market in 2008.
Kim’s ER model, which has a range of 7,500 nautical miles (8,630 miles/13,890 km), was introduced in 2014 and is 500 nautical miles ahead of its predecessor.

The aircraft is equipped with two Rolls-Royce BR725 A1-12 engines.
It can fly at a maximum speed of 616 knots or 709 mph (1,141 km/h), with a cruising speed of 516 knots or 594 mph (955 km/h).
He was officially introduced to fans in June 2023 on HBO’s The Kardashians , through an MTV Cribs-style appearance.
And, of course, the famous sister didn’t just buy off the shelf.
The reality star worked with two stylists to make “Kim Air” exactly match her lavish tastes.
Tommy Clements, of Clements Designs, is a Los Angeles-based designer known for his “easy glamor and high intimacy” in his interiors.

During her visit, she explained that while it is customary for planes to be dark with light leather, she opted for light, streamlined wood.
She also has a bathroom forward and aft so her passengers have choices when nature calls.
And, of course, she made sure each seat had its own phone charger so they could always scroll through their Instagram feed along the way.
“I never dreamed of owning a plane. I just wanted it to be like an extension of me and my home,” she said.
With the comforts of home in mind, she said the “best, most exciting part” of her new car was the cashmere accents.
The pillows, headrests, ceilings, seats and overhead luggage compartments are all covered in rare and expensive cashmere.
But even a billionaire doesn’t want to see spills and stains on his immaculate furniture.
Kim Kardashian’s private jet has one rule that she made clear on The Kardashians .
“Don’t breathe, don’t touch anything,” she said jokingly.

She has already asked that those on board not wear shoes.
Kendall Jenner , the supermodel’s sister, considered getting a spray tan before heading to Milan for the Prada show, but Kim talked her out of it.
“Have you seen the cashmere seats? You can’t get a tan on my cashmere seats,” she said.
The passionate entrepreneur is even considering a collaboration with her brand SKIMS to match her jet.
The shapewear brand is known for its nude shades, which reflect the interiors of its mansion.
“So, wouldn’t it be so cute if I made personalized SKIMS in this color, like pajamas, socks, blankets and slippers?
Turns out she’s planning a travel collection for the hit brand.
Even the exterior is a neutral cream color.
It has 16 oval windows that offer a dream view of the sky.
Additionally, improved air ionization apparently makes it feel like breathing “fresh outside air” in a normally stale airplane.
