Kim Kardashian flew from Bedlands Gate Airfield in the United Kingdom to Los Angeles International Airport on June 9, a 9-hour-35-minute transatlantic crossing in her Gulfstream G650ER, N1980K. The trip capped a European swing that included stops in Nice, Paris, and the UK, according to flight tracking data.

The journey home came days after Kardashian attended the Monaco Grand Prix, where her boyfriend, Lewis Hamilton, secured a second-place finish for Ferrari. Per a Yahoo Sports report on June 8, Kardashian was spotted in the Ferrari garage throughout the weekend and shared a celebratory moment with Hamilton after the race. The Cut noted that her presence generated both attention and some friction with F1 fans, particularly when she appeared to decline an interview with Sky Sports reporter Martin Brundle.

The long flight stands in contrast to the short-hop criticism Kardashian has faced in the past—including a widely discussed nine-minute hop between Los Angeles and Van Nuys that even prompted her mother, Kris Jenner, to raise concerns, per an IBTimes UK report. This time, however, the journey spanned continents, and the destination was a major event: one of Formula 1's most glamorous weekends.
