Elon Musk appears to have given up on trying to camouflage his private-jet travels with an FAA program used by Jeff Bezos and Taylor Swift

• Last year, Elon Musk stopped using an FAA program allowing jet owners to fly incognito, JetSpy said.
• Musk tried to thwart jet-tracking in the past, offering to pay a student to stop posting his flights online.
• There is no “silver bullet” to preventing the public from tracking personal jets, the FAA has said.

After trying to dodge jet-tracking accounts for the better part of a year and even forcing the college student who tracks his jets to stop sharing live data on Twitter, Elon Musk appears to have stopped taking advantage of a federal program designed to help camouflage his air travels.

The Tesla CEO had signed up for a free Federal Aviation Administration program that allows private jet owners to fly incognito using a temporary aircraft registration number in January of 2022, but Musk hasn’t used the program since August 20, 2022, according to the aircraft-tracking company JetSpy.
