The Department of Homeland Security has a ‘$70 million sex plane’ that the agency confirms Secretary Kristi Noem has traveled on, according to reporting by the Wall Street Journal. The Leased Boeing 737 MAX with private rear cabin is in process of being acquired by the agency for $70 million. Secretary Noem has traveled on the jet with Corey Lewandowski, whom she has been rumored to be in an extramarital relationship with since at least 2000.
The stated purpose of the aircraft is “high-profile deportations” though DHS says it’s also used for Cabinet-level travel. Staff reportedly call it the secretary’s “big, beautiful jet.” Acquisition of it was funded by the Big Beautiful Bill. There is not actual evidence that the bedroom has been used as a power by the hour motel.
- The Journal reports they “do little to hide” a romantic relationship inside the agnecy, with Trump allegedly raising it repeatedly.
- Lewandowski allegedly got a Coast Guard pilot fired because Noem’s personal blanket didn’t get transferred to a replacement plane after a maintenance-driven aircraft swap. The pilot was later reinstated when no backup pilot was available.
The aircraft appears to be N471US (MSN 61329) with a “5 zone VVIP” layout for 17 passengers, including two suites with full-size beds and a master bathroom with a shower stall.
Looks like CBP has a new jet

I think the right question taxpayers should be asking is: “where’s Qatar when you need them?” since they’ve been picking up the tab for administration private jets?
Meanwhile, there’s some debate over whether this should be considered “Corey Lewandowski’s and Kristi Noem’s private sex plane” or whether it’s more correctly thought of as “a public sex plane.”
Given the events of the past few days, perhaps the poor puppy that met its end in the gravel pit made the mistake of sleeping on Noem’s precious blankie. If true, that military pilot should be very happy that he was merely fired, and not fired upon.
Sex on a public Homeland Security plane.
Better than sex at the MSP Airport men’s restroom?
C’mon, Gary. Points and miles. Points and miles.
@ Thing 1 — That blog was discontinued.
Just another theft from the US Treasury into the hands of the grifters. What a corrupt administration.
Supposedly some of Noem’s people in CBP are really trying hard to round up people because it makes her look “tough enough” to get the 2028 GOP nomination. I guess this won’t help make that nightmare scenario any more likely.
Wow Gary, thought this blog was about airline business and travel perks. What was that gossip columnist name who use to publish all types of crap about celebrities, Gary something or other? There are a lot of unsubstantiated and libelous statements published here.. I doubt, he said, she said, will hold up at your trial for publishing those statements about any citizen. Maybe this group can take up a collection and send niceties to your jail cell to give to the other inmates. ;>)
Looks like WSJ and this blog have sunk to a new low. Wasn’t this blog supposed to be about the Airline Industry?
This kind of thing happens in every administration. Don’t know why any of this would surprise anyone. That’s even assuming this is true (maybe it is, maybe it isn’t).
Filth. Both of them.
I think their infidelity makes a difference. If they’re doing that, what other promises are they breaking? How can they be trusted? Isn’t sex the most common blackmail topic?
At one time I thought of the Wall Street Journal as being above politics but that day has long since passed.
@av8reb – you said ” thought this blog was about airline business and travel perks”
You don’t think having a private jet, with a master BR and shower, and a lover on board, is a perk? 🙂
DRAIN THE SWAMP
So are these the new colors of US Govt Jets ?
@bigtree. Sex at the MSP restrooms is really quite fun. One of my favorite layover cities!
The federal executive transport fleet was aging rapidly, and the supply-chain issues still plaguing the air transport industry made that even worth. The MAX is one of the more stable airliners from that perspective. This airplane has entered the federal government fleet, can be reassigned at any time, and reconfiguration is not difficult.
