[With Kanye West everywhere from the New York Met Gala to Cuba with his family, JetSmarter member Mazen A. Dayam talks to SOHH about boarding a private flight this week alongside Yeezus himself and celebrity wife Kim Kardashian West.]
Mr. & Mrs. West appeared to be a charming, pleasant, very happy couple. I found them to be very down to earth, smart, approachable – but yes it was definitely cool to fly with them. While Kim slept throughout the flight, Kanye and I started discussing our mutual admiration for watches.
We spoke for a little while about cars, the soaring price of real estate in both New York and Los Angeles and more.
Flying with KimYe took me for a surprise. I am a JetSmarter member and use the service often – and was called to Los Angeles on a last minute business meeting, I boarded and among the handful of people on my flight was Mr & Mrs. West.
Kanye was a complete gentleman. After speaking one on one with him for close to an hour, this guy seemed to me to be a creative genius who worked on art throughout the flight and was so consumed and proud of what he does. As a hard working entrepreneur I admire his drive to continue to succeed and continue to win.
Both Kanye and Kim were pleasant partners on a private plane. Yes they were both tired and so was I.
The kids weren’t flying with them, although they discussed parenting and the kids non-stop.
