00:00Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco don't just travel, they disappear into a world of hidden luxury.
00:04From sleek cars to private jets and even romantic boat rides, their journeys are carefully planned
00:09to stay out of sight. But how exactly do they pull it off? That's what I'm about to show you.
00:14Luxury cars. Let me paint you a picture of devotion that seems almost impossible in our
00:19modern age of instant gratification and quick flights. Imagine being so in love with someone
00:23that you're willing to spend three to four days driving across the entire continental United
00:28States, traversing deserts, mountains and plains, watching the American landscape unfold mile by
00:33mile through your windshield, all because the alternative, stepping onto an airplane, fills
00:38you with such profound terror that it's simply not an option. This is the reality that Benny Blanco
00:43faces every single time he wants to see Selena Gomez. Benny Blanco's fear of flying isn't just
00:48a mild discomfort or a preference for keeping his feet on the ground, it's a severe phobia
00:53that has fundamentally shaped how he navigates his relationship with one of the world's
00:57biggest stars. While most people in long distance relationships might hop on a quick two hour
01:01flight from Los Angeles to New York City, Blanco embarks on what can only be described as a cross
01:06country pilgrimage, a testament to love that puts every romantic gesture you've ever made
01:11to absolute shame. The music producer, who has crafted hits for the biggest names in the
01:16industry, has been documented making these marathon drives regularly, with one particular
01:20journey in May 2025 capturing public attention when he was spotted making a stop in Dallas,
01:26approximately halfway through his transcontinental trek. Think about that for a moment. While you
01:30might complain about a 30 minute commute to work, this man is spending days behind the wheel,
01:35navigating highways and interstates, stopping for gas and rest, all for the chance to spend time
01:40with the woman he loves. But let's break down what these drives actually entail, because the sheer
01:45logistics of repeatedly driving from Los Angeles to New York City are staggering. We're talking about
01:50approximately 2,800 miles of highway, interstate and back roads. We're talking about crossing through
01:56eight or nine states, depending on the route chosen. We're talking about countless gas stops, rest stops,
02:01roadside diners, budget motels or luxury hotels for overnight stays, according to reports. Blanco aims to
02:08reunite with Gomez every three weeks, despite her demanding filming schedule for only murders in the
02:13building in New York City, while he maintains his base of operations in Los Angeles. This means that
02:18roughly every 21 days, Blanco is either preparing for, executing or recovering from a cross-country
02:24drive that would exhaust most people just thinking about it. The commitment is breathtaking. This isn't
02:29a one-time grand gesture made in the honeymoon phase of a relationship. It's a repeated demonstration
02:34of devotion that happens month after month, through changing seasons, through varying weather conditions,
02:40through the inevitable fatigue that comes with such regular long-distance travel.
02:44The drives themselves have become something of a labour of love for Blanco, who has described
02:48these journeys as his way of ensuring they can see each other in person, maintaining the face-to-face
02:53connection that's so crucial to any relationship, but especially one in the public eye. While other
02:58couples might FaceTime or text their way through separations, relying on digital connection to bridge
03:04the physical gap, Blanco literally puts in the miles, creating a physical journey that mirrors
03:08the emotional journey of their relationship, proving that sometimes the old-fashioned way,
03:13which is getting in a car and driving to your loved one, is still the most meaningful.
03:17But Blanco's relationship with luxury cars isn't solely about these gruelling cross-country
03:22marathons. The man knows how to transform his ground transportation preference into opportunities
03:27for romance, creativity and celebration. In April 2025, Blanco rented a luxury limousine in Los Angeles
03:33for a themed date night where he and Gomez recreated a prom night experience, complete with corsages,
03:39formal attire and all the nostalgic glamour of a high school dance, but with significantly better
03:44transportation and without the awkward teenage angst. This ability to transform his ground travel
03:50necessity into opportunities for creativity and romance is perhaps one of the most endearing aspects
03:55of Blanco's approach to luxury car transportation. He's not just grudgingly avoiding planes and making
04:01do with whatever ground transportation is available. He's actively finding ways to make his preferred
04:06methods special, memorable and fun. It's a mindset that turns limitation into opportunity, transforming
04:12what could be seen as a burden or inconvenience into something that actually enhances their relationship
04:17and creates unique memories that flying simply couldn't provide. When it came time for his bachelor party
04:23in Las Vegas in August 2025, Blanco kept things consistent with his travel philosophy, opting for a short
04:29drive from Los Angeles approximately four hours through the desert rather than taking a quick flight
04:34that would have gotten him there in under an hour. Even for a celebratory occasion with friends, even when
04:39the distance is relatively short and manageable by plane for most people, even when the convenience factor
04:44might have been tempting, Blanco stays true to his ground transportation commitment. The luxury car
04:49component of Blanco and Gomez's travel story reached its most elaborate expression during their wedding
04:54weekend in Santa Barbara on September 27, 2025. This spectacular event required coordinating transportation
05:02not just for the couple themselves, but for dozens of high-profile guests, each with their own travel
05:07preferences, security needs and schedules, all while maintaining the privacy and exclusivity that such a
05:13celebrity wedding demands. The wedding logistics involved multiple forms of luxury ground transportation,
05:19from private cars making two-hour drives from Los Angeles to elaborate three-car motorcades for ultra-high
05:24profile guests like Taylor Swift. The choice of Santa Barbara as a venue was particularly clever from
05:29a transportation perspective, close enough to Los Angeles to make driving a viable and even pleasant
05:34option, eliminating the need for air travel for those who, like Blanco, preferred to keep their wheels
05:39on the ground. For guests who valued discretion and security above all else, Taylor Swift's three-car
05:45motorcade represented the pinnacle of luxury ground transportation. Multiple vehicles working in
05:50coordination, security personnel managing every detail, tinted windows protecting privacy, and
05:55professional drivers ensuring that one of the world's biggest pop stars could arrive safely and in
05:59style. This wasn't just about getting from point A to point B, it was about making a statement, about
06:05ensuring safety, and about arriving at one of the most important celebrations in your friend's life,
06:10with the gravitas and security that befits global superstardom. The couple even arranged shuttle buses to
06:16transport guests between hotels and the venue, a practical touch that ensured everyone could arrive
06:21safely and on time without the stress of navigating unfamiliar roads. Dealing with parking logistics
06:26or worrying about coordinating multiple vehicles, these weren't your average school buses of course,
06:31we're talking luxury coaches with comfortable seating, climate control, and all the amenities that
06:35wedding guests at this caliber of event would expect and deserve. Now let's shift our perspective from
06:41the highways of Benny Blanco's ground-bound world to the clouds, where Selena Gomez navigates her
06:46incredibly busy, demanding, and complex life with the efficiency, luxury, and privacy that her career
06:52absolutely requires. Private jets
06:54If Blanco's story is one of creative workarounds, determined ground travel, and persistent problem
07:00solving to overcome his flying phobia, then Selena's transportation tale is about maximizing time,
07:05maintaining privacy, ensuring security, and traveling in the kind of style that befits one of the
07:10entertainment industry's most successful, recognizable, and beloved stars. Selena Gomez's
07:15primary mode of transportation is the private jet, that ultimate symbol of celebrity convenience,
07:20luxury, and the rarefied air of A-list Hollywood life. For someone juggling an intense filming schedule,
07:26promotional appearances that span multiple cities and countries, business meetings for her various
07:30ventures, including her cosmetics line Rare Beauty, recording sessions for her music career, and a
07:35personal life that spans multiple cities and time zones. Commercial flights simply don't offer the
07:40flexibility, privacy, security, or efficiency that private aviation provides. We're talking about
07:46chartered jets that allow her to work on her own schedule, depart when she's ready rather than when
07:51airlines dictate, avoid the chaos and public exposure of airports and commercial terminals, and
07:56travel with the comfort, security, and discretion that her level of fame absolutely demands.
08:01This is an A-level aircraft with a luxury interior and breathtaking designs. The most delightful,
08:06romantic, and Instagram-worthy aspect of Selena's private jet usage came to light in September 2025,
08:13when fans and photographers spotted her jet featuring a custom wrap with Benny Blanco's face.
08:18Yes, you read that correctly. Selena Gomez literally turned her private jet into a flying billboard,
08:23celebrating her love for her then-fiancé, transforming a multi-million dollar piece of aviation
08:28equipment into perhaps the most elaborate and visible declaration of love ever conceived.
08:33The jet, which she affectionately dubbed her, Runway in the Skies, became an instant social media
08:39sensation, with fans swooning over this public declaration of affection that could be seen from
08:44thousands of feet below, visible to anyone who happened to look up as she soared overhead.
08:48Think about the audacity, the romance, the sheer joy and fun of this gesture. While most people might
08:53put a photo of their partner on their phone's lock screen or maybe wear a piece of jewellery with
08:58their initials or get a small tattoo in their honour, Selena wrapped an entire aircraft, a massive,
09:02expensive, technologically sophisticated piece of aviation equipment, with her beloved's face.
09:08It's the kind of grand, romantic gesture that only someone of Selena's stature could pull off,
09:13and it perfectly encapsulates the playful, public, unabashedly affectionate nature of their relationship.
09:18Every time she boards that plane, every time she flies to a new destination for work or pleasure,
09:23she's quite literally surrounded by her love for Blanco, carrying him with her in the most visible
09:27way possible, even when he can't join her in the air due to his phobia. The private jet lifestyle
09:32reached peak glamour, luxury and celebration during Gomez's bachelorette weekend in Cabo San Lucas,
09:38Mexico, in August 2025. For this pre-wedding celebration with her closest friends, likely
09:43including some of the biggest names in entertainment, beauty and fashion, Selena chartered a private jet
09:48that whisked the entire party from Los Angeles to the luxurious Mexican resort destination, where they
09:54would spend the weekend on yachts, enjoying spa treatments, celebrating her upcoming nuptials and
09:59creating memories that would last a lifetime. This is where the contrast between Selena and Blanco's
10:04travel styles becomes most apparent and most stark. While he was likely preparing for or recovering from
10:09one of his exhausting cross-country drives, while he was planning his own bachelor party that would require
10:14careful ground transportation logistics, she was jetting off with her friends for a weekend of
10:19luxury and celebration that took just a few hours from departure to arrival. But rather than representing
10:25a fundamental incompatibility or a source of friction between them, this difference actually highlights
10:30the complementary nature of their relationship, the way they've each carved out their own transportation
10:35spheres while respecting each other's needs, preferences and limitations. The Cabo trip exemplifies
10:40how Selena uses private aviation not just for work, but for maintaining her personal relationships and
10:46creating memorable experiences with her loved ones. The chartered jet allowed her entire bachelorette party to
10:52travel together as a cohesive group, arriving in style for a weekend of yacht-based festivities that would have
10:57been significantly more complicated, time-consuming and stressful to coordinate using commercial flights, which
11:03would have meant coordinating multiple schedules, dealing with potential delays that could throw off the whole weekend and
11:09arriving at different times rather than altogether. The privacy afforded by private aviation also meant
11:14that she could celebrate this intimate pre-wedding moment without the intrusion of paparazzi at every
11:19airport gate, without fans recognizing her at commercial terminals and requesting photos when she might just
11:25want to relax with her friends, and without the details of her celebration being leaked in real time by other
11:30passengers posting to social media. For a celebrity of Selena's magnitude, privacy isn't just a preference, it's a
11:36necessity for maintaining any sense of normalcy and intimacy in important life moments. Now, beyond the
11:42romantic gestures and celebration trips, beyond the Instagram-worthy moments and the viral social media
11:47posts, Selena's use of private jets is fundamentally about the practical, unavoidable demands of her
11:52multifaceted career. Her frequent charters between Los Angeles and New York City for filming
11:57Only Murders in the Building represent the kind of bi-coastal lifestyle that's common among top-tier
12:02entertainers, but would be nearly impossible to maintain using commercial flights with their fixed
12:07schedules, potential delays, and lack of flexibility. Think about the logistics that private aviation
12:12makes possible. Selena might finish filming a particularly intense scene in New York on a Friday evening,
12:17need to attend an important business meeting for one of her various ventures, or a promotional event
12:22for a brand partnership in Los Angeles on Saturday, and be back on set in New York by Monday morning for
12:27the next week of filming. Commercial flights with their fixed schedules that might not align with her
12:31needs, security lines that would add hours to every journey, potential delays that could jeopardize
12:36important commitments, and the constant risk of flights being cancelled or overbooked simply can't
12:41accommodate this kind of flexibility and reliability. Private aviation allows her to maximize her time,
12:47working while traveling with her team rather than sitting idly in airports, departing as soon as she's
12:52finished with one commitment to get to the next, and maintaining the kind of demanding schedule that
12:57her multifaceted career as an actress, singer, businesswoman, and philanthropist requires.
13:02When you're operating at the level of Selena Gomez, where your time is literally worth thousands
13:06of dollars per hour, where missing a commitment could cost hundreds of thousands in lost opportunities
13:11or breach of contract penalties, private jets aren't really a luxury, they're a business necessity.
13:16Moreover, the privacy and security of private jets can't be overstated for someone at Selena's level of fame.
13:22Commercial flying would mean navigating airports filled with fans and photographers who might
13:26surround her at every turn, dealing with the constant stress of being photographed at her
13:31worst moments when she's tired from filming, makeup free during early morning flights or even
13:36emotional after difficult scenes. Private aviation provides a sanctuary of sorts, a space where she
13:41can relax without performing, prepare for upcoming work without being watched, take important phone
13:46calls without worrying about being overheard, or simply exist without the constant awareness of being watched.
13:52judged and photographed. It's not just about luxury or showing off wealth, it's about creating a
13:57space where she can be herself, where she can work effectively, and where she can maintain the kind
14:01of productivity and professionalism that her career demands. Now it would be remiss not to acknowledge
14:07that private jet usage, particularly frequent private jet usage, comes with significant environmental
14:12costs and has become increasingly controversial in an era of climate awareness. This is a conversation that
14:18celebrities who use private aviation frequently must navigate, balancing their legitimate security and
14:23logistical needs against the environmental impact of their travel choices. Although this aspect of
14:28Selena's travel isn't the focus of this story, it's still an important context that shapes public
14:33perception of celebrity aviation and adds another layer of complexity to these transportation decisions.
14:38Now when driving across America isn't enough, or when Selenid Blanco needs to travel internationally without
14:43flying, the couple turns to one of the most romantic and adventurous forms of transportation imaginable.
14:49Luxury boats and yachts. Benny Blanco's most extraordinary boat journey came when,
14:54after driving from Los Angeles to New York, he embarked on an eight-day transatlantic boat voyage to Europe.
14:59Picture this extraordinary, almost cinematic journey. After completing one of his already exhausting
15:04cross-country drives, covering nearly 3,000 miles over three or four days. After arriving in New York,
15:10tired but determined, Blanco then boarded a boat for an eight-day crossing of the Atlantic Ocean.
15:15While other travelers, including Selena herself when she travels internationally, might make the
15:20journey from New York to Europe in a matter of seven or eight hours aboard a comfortable airplane,
15:24arriving refreshed and ready to go, Blanco spent more than a week on the water, watching the endless
15:29expanse of oceans stretch to the horizon in every direction, dealing with potential seasickness,
15:34experiencing the unique isolation of being at sea with no land in sight,
15:38and embracing what can only be described as one of the slowest forms of modern international travel.
15:43He reportedly likened the experience to being on the Titanic, a mix of adventure,
15:48romance, grandeur, and probably no small amount of discomfort and apprehension.
15:52The comparison is apt in more ways than one. Like those early 20th-century passengers who crossed
15:56the Atlantic in luxury liners because airplanes either didn't exist yet, Blanco is choosing a mode
16:01of transportation from a different era. He is embracing a slower, more contemplative way of crossing
16:06oceans that most modern travelers have completely abandoned in favor of the speed and efficiency
16:11of air travel. This wasn't just about avoiding planes, it was about pushing through discomfort,
16:16embracing alternative methods that most people would consider impractical or impossible,
16:20and refusing to let fear dictate the boundaries of his relationship, or limit his ability to
16:25support Gomez in her international work commitments. The sheer determination required to complete such a journey,
16:31especially after already driving across an entire continent, speaks volumes about the depth of
16:37Blanco's commitment to making this relationship work, despite the geographical, logistical,
16:41and psychological challenges that most couples will never have to face. But not all of the couple's
16:46boat and yacht experiences involve epic transatlantic crossings or dramatic ocean voyages. Some of their
16:52most intimate and romantic maritime moments have come during domestic lake getaways that represent the
16:57perfect compromise between their two travel styles. These trips allow them to experience the luxury,
17:03privacy, and romance of yacht travel without Blanco needing to confront his flying phobia, creating a
17:08sweet spot where both of their needs and preferences can be met simultaneously. In September 2025, shortly
17:14after their respective bachelor and bachelorette parties, the couple enjoyed a serene lake getaway that
17:19perfectly encapsulates their blended approach to travel. This trip involved a relatively short drive from
17:24Los Angeles, likely to somewhere in the Lake Tahoe area or another nearby lake destination that California and the
17:30surrounding states offer in abundance. Somewhere they could enjoy the tranquility of water-based recreation, the luxury of
17:36private boat access, and the romance of being on the water together, all without Blanco needing to step onto a
17:42plane or endure a multi-day journey to get there. The beauty of these lake trips is multifaceted and reveals the
17:47thoughtfulness with which this couple approaches their shared travel experiences. First, they're easily accessible by car from Los Angeles,
17:54Los Angeles, meaning the couple can depart on their own schedule without the need for flight planning,
17:58coordination with aviation companies, or dealing with any of the logistics that air travel requires.
18:04They can leave when they're ready, drive at their own pace, stop along the way if they want to explore
18:08a town or grab a meal, and arrive when it suits them rather than being locked into departure time set by
18:13airlines or charter companies. Second, once they arrive at their lake destination, the activities which include
18:19boating, relaxing on decks, swimming, enjoying the natural scenery, perhaps fishing or water sports,
18:24provide exactly the kind of romantic, peaceful, disconnected from Hollywood environment that
18:28allows them to reconnect away from the chaos of their busy lives. These getaways feature small
18:33boats or yachts for romantic outings, giving them the privacy and luxury they desire while staying true
18:39to Blanco's ground and water transportation preferences. There's something almost poetic about a couple
18:44finding their sweet spot on a lake, not quite on solid ground where Blanco does most of his traveling,
18:49not quite flying through the air where Selena spends much of her professional life, but floating
18:54peacefully on water, literally meeting in the middle between their two transportation worlds.
18:59In early September 2025, just weeks before their wedding, Selena and Blanco embarked on a luxury yacht
19:05outing that combined romance with celebration, intimacy with luxury, and provided yet another example of how
19:11maritime travel has become a cornerstone of their shared experiences. Yachts have become a recurring
19:16theme in their joint travel, offering the perfect blend of luxury that matches their celebrity status,
19:21privacy that protects them from the constant intrusion of paparazzi and public scrutiny,
19:26and Blanco-friendly transportation that allows him to participate fully without confronting his flying
19:31phobia. Whether it's a day trip along the stunning California coast, where they can watch the sunset over
19:35the Pacific while enjoying champagne and each other's company, or a longer excursion to explore hidden
19:40coves and private beaches, these maritime adventures allow them to experience the thrill of travel,
19:46the excitement of new horizons, and the romance of being on the water together, all while staying
19:50within Blanco's comfort zone. The yacht trips are particularly clever and thoughtful because they
19:55offer many of the same benefits that private aviation provides Selena, and that is privacy, luxury,
20:00flexibility, and the ability to travel with friends and family in a controlled environment. There's also
20:05something deeply symbolic about the couple's embrace of boats and yachts as a primary form of shared
20:10travel. Water has long been associated with romance, with journey, and with the idea of embarking on
20:15adventures together. When couples talk about being in the same boat or navigating life's waters together,
20:21they're using maritime metaphors to describe partnership, collaboration, and shared destiny.
20:26So for Selena and Blanco, these aren't just metaphors, they're literal experiences that define how
20:31they travel together and create shared memories. The yacht trips also represent a form of travel that's
20:36inherently slower, more present, and more about the journey than the destination. Unlike flying,
20:40where you're transported from one place to another in a matter of hours with little awareness of the
20:45space you're traversing, yacht travel forces you to be present with the water, the weather, and the
20:50gradual change of scenery as you move along a coastline or across a lake. It's a form of travel
20:54that encourages conversation, relaxation, and presence, exactly the qualities that a busy celebrity couple
21:00needs to maintain their connection amid the chaos of their professional lives. From a practical standpoint,
21:06boat and yacht travel offer several advantages that make it ideal for a couple in Selena and Blanco's
21:11unique situation. First, it provides privacy that's nearly impossible to achieve with other forms of
21:16travel. When you're on a private yacht, you're in a controlled environment where the only people
21:20present are those you've invited. There are no paparazzi hiding in bathrooms, no fans asking for
21:25selfies at inopportune moments, no risk of someone recording your private conversations and selling
21:30them to tabloids. The water itself becomes a moat of sorts, a buffer between you and the world that
21:35allows for genuine intimacy and relaxation. Second, yacht travel offers flexibility that rivals even
21:41private aviation. You can depart when you're ready, change your itinerary mid-journey, extend your trip if
21:46you're having a wonderful time, or even cut it short if work demands call you back to shore. There's no
21:50flight plan to file, no air traffic control to coordinate with, no weather restrictions as
21:55stringent as those that govern aviation. While you obviously need to respect weather conditions
22:00and maritime safety, there's a freedom to water travel that appeals to people who value spontaneity
22:05and flexibility. As Selena and Blanco settle into married life, it's easy to imagine that boats and
22:10yachts will continue to play a central role in their shared travel experiences. Perhaps they'll explore
22:15more of the California coast, discovering hidden beaches and charming seaside towns that can only be
22:20accessed by water. Maybe they'll plan longer yacht trips to Mexico, Central America or the Caribbean,
22:25destinations that are accessible by boat without requiring the kind of multi-week ocean crossing
22:30that transatlantic travel demands. There might even be romantic dinner cruises, anniversary celebrations
22:36aboard yachts, or simply lazy Sunday afternoons floating on a quiet lake somewhere, away from the
22:41demands of Hollywood and the scrutiny of the public eye. It's safe to say that the maritime aspect of
22:46this couple's travel story opens up possibilities for future adventures that honor both of their
22:51preferences. They could explore the Mediterranean by yacht, visiting the French Riviera, the Italian
22:56coast, or the Greek islands. These are places that are accessible by boat once Blanco has completed
23:01whatever ground-based journey gets him to Europe. Without doubt, it becomes evident that Selena Gomez
23:05and Benny Blanco's travel isn't just about privacy. It's also about luxury, one that is rarely seen amongst
23:11many celebrities today. But what do you think? Are there other celebrity couple that comes close?
