Global film icon Jackie Chan has long captivated audiences with his on-screen agility, but his off-screen passion for aviation tells a story of precision, performance, and prestige. The martial arts superstar owns two Embraer private jets; the Legacy 650 and Legacy 500, demonstrating his commitment to efficient global travel and cultural pride, with both jets bearing his signature dragon-themed livery.

Chan’s aviation journey began in 2012, when he became the first Chinese customer of the Embraer Legacy 650. Four years later, he added the Legacy 500, cementing his bond with the Brazilian aircraft manufacturer, where he also serves as a brand ambassador. His selection of midsize, high-tech jets marked a shift in China’s private aviation landscape, traditionally dominated by larger, costlier aircraft.

The Legacy 650, valued at $30 million, offers 3,900 nautical miles of range and can seat up to 14 passengers. Its luxurious three-zone cabin, dual lavatories, and high-speed Wi-Fi make it ideal for long-haul flights between Asia, the Middle East, and Australia. The Legacy 500, priced at $20 million, is a more compact jet with cutting-edge fly-by-wire controls, a range of 3,125 nautical miles, and the ability to land on shorter runways—a perfect fit for regional travel across Asia.

Beyond personal use, Chan’s jets are tools for impact. With roles spanning acting, charity, and global diplomacy, the jets enable him to travel seamlessly, supporting film productions, philanthropy, and cultural engagements worldwide. Adorned with custom emblems and traditional designs, the jets reflect not just wealth and status, but Chan’s dedication to style, identity, and excellence.
