Even Swifties are struggling to defend Taylor’s private jet use

To be fair, swifts are renowned for long-distance flight. Africa to Northern Europe and back, every year.

Are you saying her private jets are fan jets? I had assumed that all modern jet aircraft use fan jets.
dearieme - in a sense they are, the fans paid for them.
