The numbers are in and they're not good. As a leader in innovation and sustainability, most would expect better from Musk.
The mercurial business magnate was all over the globe in 2022: visiting Ellison in Hawaii, partying in Berlin and meeting the Pope in Rome. Frequently, he was traveling between his different businesses, with sometimes daily trips from Tesla’s Austin headquarters to SpaceX’s LA-area office. And once he acquired Twitter in October, his visits to the social-media site’s Bay Area home increased exponentially.
In total, Musk’s private plane circled Earth a total of 12.4 times, an incomprehensible span even to those of us with frequent-flyer status. While that in itself is notable, most surprising might be the length of some of Musk’s trips. Several flights lasted 15 minutes or less, including one from the SpaceX headquarters in Hawthorne, California, to LAX just six miles away.
