Taylor Swift will leave a big carbon footprint in the next 10 days, as she’s set to travel nearly 20,000 miles by private jet.

The Karma hitmaker, 34, will make a mad dash from her Eras Tour stop in Tokyo, Japan, in order to get to Las Vegas on Sunday so she can watch boyfriend Travis Kelce, 34, compete in the Super Bowl.

Swift flew 5,477 miles from LA to Tokyo on Monday, following the Grammy awards. On Saturday she will fly 5,530 miles to watch Travis and the Kansas City Chiefs play against San Francisco 49ers, as per The Sun.

The singer — who recently sold one of her jets — will then fly another 8,157 miles to Melbourne to resume her tour, totaling 19,164 air miles. 

It comes after the star was ranked as the world’s most carbon-polluting celebrity for two years by analytics agency Yard in 2022.

The ten-day period travel is expected to amount to 122 tons of CO2 emissions, according to the publication.

In her biggest trip to date, Swift flew from Sao Paulo, Brazil to Kansas City – with a stopover in Tampa, Florida.

The journey used 4,151 gallons of fuel, which is believed to be worth $23, 250.

However, a spokesman for Taylor explained she has been offsetting her carbon footprint by buying carbon credits, which support verified projects which help cut global emissions in order to ‘protect vulnerable ecosystems.’

They told DailyMail.com she was working to lessen her jets’ carbon emissions by traveling less frequently than in previous years.

‘Before the tour kicked off in March of 2023, Taylor purchased more than double the carbon credits needed to offset all tour travel,’ the spokesperson explained.

In 2022 Yard estimated that Swift’s jet had made 170 flights in seven months, amounting to 8,000 tons of carbon emissions.

‘That is 1,184 times more than the average person’s annual emissions.’

Swift’s spokesperson defended her private jet use, claiming she ‘regularly loans’ her plane to other people. 

‘To attribute most or all of these trips to her is blatantly incorrect.’ 

Earlier in the day it was reported that Swift has downsized and sold one of her gas-guzzling private jets.

The 14-time Grammy winner sold her $40 million Dassault Falcon 900LX on January 30 to car insurance company Car Shield based in Missouri, now estimated to be worth around $7million second-hand, according to documents obtained by DailyMail.com.

While many have called on the star to reduce her travel, it is unlikely that the globetrotting superstar will switch to commercial flights due to security fears.

She reportedly purchased the jet for $40million in 2011, with FAA records showing that the 900LX was transferred to Triangle Real Estate from SATA LLC in Nashville, which is believed to stand for her family members’ names, after her father Scott, mother Andrea, Taylor and brother Austin.

The ownership switched on January 30, with Triangle Real Estate LLC appearing to have been on the hunt for an upgrade after selling its $400k 1976 Cessna 421 on January 25, opting for Swift’s larger plane instead.

Swift still owns her Dassault Falcon 7X which if bought new costs $54million. She has been using the jet as her main mode of transport for the Eras Tour.

The larger of her jets is listed under Island Jet Inc which is tied to Taylor Swift Productions in Nashville, Tennessee, along with SATA LLC, according to documents from the Tennessee Secretary of State.

She previously sold a smaller Dassault Falcon 50 jet in 2020, after she purchased it in 2012 for $4million. Swift donated the proceeds to charity.

It is unclear if Swift is planning to upgrade her fleet just in time for the longest leg of her international tour starts – jetting to to perform on February 16.

This comes as it was revealed Swift’s lawyers sent a letter to Jack Sweeney, 21, demanding that he stop logging her flights and locations.

Sweeney, a junior at the University of Central Florida, has run several accounts that track the flight paths of planes and helicopters owned by celebrities, billionaires, politicians and other public figures.

His accounts use publicly available data, and also share the estimates of their planet warning emissions – with the college student first going head to head with Elon Musk in 2022 for sharing his jet’s details. 

In a statement to DailyMail.com Sweeney said: ‘I think it’s important to note that nowhere do I intend for harm. I actually think Swift has some good songs.’

‘I believe in transparency and public information.’

Swift’s attorneys in Washington saying the pop superstar would have ‘have no choice but to pursue any and all legal remedies’ if he did not stop his ‘stalking and harassing behavior’, according to the Washington Post.

It added that Sweeney’s accounts had caused Swift and her family ‘direct and irreparable harm, as well as emotional and physical distress,’ as well as heightening her ‘constant state of fear for her personal safety’.

The letter, which was sent to Sweeney’s family home, said that there was no ‘legitimate interest in or public need for this information, other than to stalk, harass, and exert dominion and control.’

Swift has seen stalkers show up outside her homes, with one man arrested last month outside her townhouse in Manhattan.
