Kim Kardashian flies to Cleveland the week of the 2026 Memorial Day air show

Kim Kardashian flew from Van Nuys Airport to Burke Lakefront Airport in Cleveland on May 25, a 3-hour-50-minute hop aboard her Gulfstream G650ER, N1980K. The flight touched down just before 4 p.m. local time.

The same week, Cleveland is hosting its 2026 Cleveland National Air Show over Memorial Day weekend, a major regional event featuring aerial demonstrations and vintage aircraft displays at Burke Lakefront. While Kardashian has no known business ties to the show, the airport's location on the lakefront makes it a convenient gateway for private aviation during the holiday weekend.

The trip follows a pattern of short-haul flights from Van Nuys to secondary airports, including previous hops to Camarillo and San Diego. Kardashian has drawn criticism for such legs in the past, per IBTimes UK, but this flight's destination aligns with a public event rather than a repositioning move.
