Drake proudly owns Air Drake, a private Boeing 767 aircraft, and his success has inspired other artists, like DJ Khaled, to aspire to similar levels of wealth and ownership of their own aircraft.
The rapper had previously expressed his desire to have a jet, sharing his aspirations during a trip to Los Angeles with Fat Joe a few months prior to receiving his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Drake, alongside a hired Bombardier Global 7500, expressed his hope for owning one someday, stating in a post, “May Allah grant me one of these things someday. Global 7500,” acknowledging the business aspect of the luxury jet.
Recent videos on his Instagram account reveal Drake’s upgraded aspirations from the Global 7500 to a Boeing. In the footage, his black Rolls-Royce Phantom is showcased next to a Boeing 767.
In the description, Drake humorously states, “I’m just window shopping, I want to feel like Drake!” and emphasizes that having a plane would enable him to tour the world with his loved ones. In another video, he takes viewers on a detailed tour of the massive aircraft, expressing his enjoyment of flying and his desire to experience the allure of a Boeing.
The specific plane in question appears to be one of the largest private aircraft, a Boeing 767-200(ER), owned by billionaire and Miami attorney John H. Ruiz.
This aircraft, among the 121 produced and delivered, boasts an impressive interior spanning 2,000 square feet, featuring two staterooms, two lounges, a formal dining room, a private cinema, a DJ station, and four bathrooms. Renovated by the Florida-based aircraft design firm VIP Completions, the plane exemplifies opulence and luxury.
While it remains unknown whether this approximately $38 million private airplane is for sale, DJ Khaled, with a net worth of $75 million, could afford it if it were on the market. Drake’s extravagant ownership of Air Drake continues to be a symbol of his immense success and a source of inspiration for those in the music industry.
