  • Sean "Diddy" Combs' private aircraft appears to be available to charter.
  • The Gulfstream G550, known as LoveAir, is also listed for sale, Combs' attorneys said.
  • Diddy remains behind bars in Brooklyn following his arrest for sex trafficking.

Sean "Diddy" Combs' luxe private jet is seemingly available to charter while the disgraced music mogul sits in jail.

The Gulfstream G550, known as LoveAir, appears to be available to rent through Silver Air, a private jet charter company based in Southern California.

Federal Aviation Administration records show the jet, registered N1969C, is owned by LoveAir LLC, a Combs-owned entity. An aircraft of the same model and tail number is listed on the private jet marketplace Victor, with Silver Air noted as the operator.

The description and photos match an aircraft listed on Silver Air's website with no tail number shown.

Silver Air declined to comment on the listing. Combs' attorneys and Victor did not immediately respond to a request for comment on this story.

The G550 was built in 2015 and features a matte black exterior and beige interiors. It can hold 14 passengers, is pet-friendly, and features an entertainment system, according to the listing on Victor.

Since Combs' September arrest and indictment on federal charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution, the jet has taken 30 flights. This includes destinations like French Polynesia, New Zealand, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Baja, Mexico, according to JetSpy data.

Chartering the jet is likely a temporary money-maker for Combs. He is also trying to sell the plane, his attorneys said in his latest bid to be released from jail ahead of his criminal trial.

Combs' attorneys filed that bail request on Friday. Combs has pleaded not guilty to the federal charges.

Used jets of the same make and model are available for sale between $26 million and $30 million, according to listings by the private aviation company Liberty Jet.

The plane, which prosecutors have argued could make him a flight risk, is one of his remaining liquid assets.

While the specific jet is not mentioned by name in any of the suits against Combs, several lawsuits accuse him of flying his alleged sexual abuse victims on private or commercial planes or of procuring illicit drugs via plane. Combs has repeatedly denied committing sexual assault.

Since a slew of civil lawsuits began last year, Diddy's business empire — which at one point included a lucrative deal with Diageo, a catalog of music hits, and a successful clothing line — has crumbled.

He maintains ownership of a mansion on Miami's Star Island that is worth about $48 million, as well as valuable jewelry and art collections. Star Island home has been offered as collateral in Combs' three requests to be released from jail on a $50 million bond package. Judges have previously denied Combs' first two bail bids. His latest bail request will be considered at a new court hearing set for next week.

He also owns a mansion in Los Angeles that was put on the market for $61.5 million in September, weeks before his arrest.
