Kim Kardashian flew from Van Nuys Airport to Calgary International Airport on May 26, a 2-hour-33-minute hop aboard her Gulfstream G650ER N1980K. The flight arrives the same week the Global Fashion Summit, a major industry conference focused on sustainability and innovation, opens in Calgary, per the event's official schedule. Kardashian, whose Skims brand has been a recurring topic in discussions about fast-fashion alternatives, has not publicly confirmed her attendance, but the timing aligns with her business interests.

The trip follows a pattern of cross-continent movement for Kardashian. In the days prior, N1980K flew from Van Nuys to an airport near Cleveland, Ohio, then back to Van Nuys, and earlier in May made a round trip to Teterboro, New Jersey — a common base for New York City engagements. The Calgary leg is a departure from her usual California hops, which have drawn criticism for short, fuel-intensive flights between Van Nuys and Camarillo, as noted by tracking communities and outlets like The Cool Down.

Kardashian has faced scrutiny over her private-jet emissions, ranking fifth on Yard Group's 2022 celebrity CO₂ list. The Global Fashion Summit's sustainability focus makes the timing of this flight notable, though repositioning or maintenance cannot be ruled out. For now, the Calgary landing adds another data point to a flight log that continues to attract public attention, whether the passenger is on board or not.
