Michael Jordan has achieved more than just global renown and a devoted fan base throughout the course of his career. The NBA legend has also amassed an immense wealth of $2 billion. Thanks to his business acumen and exceptional decision-making abilities. It’s not surprising that MJ owns one of the most expensive private jets.
But there is just something very special about his jet that might be able to connect the Air Jordan enthusiasts.
Michael Jordan’s most premium collection.
Alongside his impressive collection of expensive and rare cars, MJ also bought a luxurious yacht for a whopping $80 million. The list goes on.
He is a businessman who is constantly looking for easy ways to get to destinations. And a private jet only serves that corporate function. Fittingly, MJ paid $62 million for the Gulfstream g550. However, in 2017, he gave his private plane a unique facelift. As a result, the jet’s price will almost certainly exceed its original worth. And if you ever happen to stumble across the jet, you’ll know it’s his.
Air Jordan was an inspiration for Michael Jackson’s private jet.
Jordan kicked off the renovation of the jet with fresh novel paint. Previously, the Gulfstream g550 flaunted a brilliant powder blue and white paint. The color is sure to remind you of the North Carolina jersey. Now the plane boasts a white, gray, and black wrap.
Wait, there’s more. As you take a closer look at the plane’s engine, you will notice the number N236MJ. A little decoding shows that the number 23 stands for MJ’s jersey, 16 for the number of titles he’s won, ending with his initials. With space to fit 16 passengers and an ultra-luxurious interior, the jet can travel distances of up to 12 hours without stopping.
