Lolita Express Passenger List: Every Name

The Most Infamous Private Jet in History

Jeffrey Epstein's Boeing 727-200, tail number N908JE, was dubbed the 'Lolita Express' by the media after court filings revealed that it transported underage girls to Epstein's properties. The aircraft, along with several smaller jets and helicopters in Epstein's fleet, generated hundreds of pages of flight logs maintained by his pilots. These logs — handwritten manifests recording passengers, dates, and routes — have become some of the most scrutinized documents in the case.

The flight logs were first obtained through subpoenas in the Giuffre v. Maxwell civil case and later supplemented by records released through the DOJ under the Transparency Act. The combined record documents flights between 1995 and 2013, covering routes between Epstein's properties in New York, Palm Beach, New Mexico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and international destinations.

How the Logs Are Structured

Each flight log entry records the date, departure and arrival airports, and a list of passengers. The logs were maintained by hand by pilots Larry Visoski and David Rodgers, among others. Passengers are typically listed by last name or, in some cases, by first name only — a pattern that investigators noted was more common for young women who were later identified as victims. Some entries include notations about the number of passengers without naming all of them.

The handwritten nature of the logs means that some names are difficult to decipher, and researchers have disagreed about specific readings. This archive indexes the flight log documents with the best available transcriptions, cross-referenced against other documents in the case to verify passenger identities where possible.

Notable Passengers Documented in the Logs

The flight logs document a wide range of passengers across hundreds of flights. Former President Bill Clinton appears on multiple flights, including a 2002 trip to Africa. Prince Andrew appears on flights between various destinations. Other notable names documented in the logs include former Senator George Mitchell, attorney Alan Dershowitz, model Naomi Campbell, actor Kevin Spacey, and numerous business executives and academics.

It is important to note that appearing on a flight log means a person was recorded as having traveled on the aircraft. Many flights were between Epstein's various properties, while others were to conferences, business meetings, or philanthropic events. The logs do not, by themselves, indicate knowledge of criminal activity. However, they provide a factual record of who was in Epstein's orbit and how frequently they interacted with him.

The Unnamed Passengers

Among the most concerning patterns in the flight logs is the presence of unnamed passengers — individuals recorded only by first name, initials, or generic descriptions like 'female' or '1 female.' Investigators have identified many of these unnamed passengers as young women and girls who were victims of Epstein's trafficking operation. The contrast between the careful recording of prominent passengers' full names and the anonymization of young women on the same flights is itself a data point in understanding how the operation functioned.

Epstein's Full Aircraft Fleet

While the Boeing 727 is the most discussed aircraft in the case, Epstein maintained a fleet of aircraft that included at least one Gulfstream IV, a Gulfstream V, and several helicopters used primarily for transfers between airports and his properties. Flight logs exist for multiple aircraft in the fleet, though the 727 logs have received the most public attention due to the volume of flights and the prominence of passengers recorded on them. The smaller aircraft were frequently used for shorter routes, including the hop from St. Thomas airport to the helipad on Little St. James Island.

The helicopter shuttle between St. Thomas and Little St. James was a critical link in Epstein's logistics chain. Staff testimony describes a regular pattern in which guests and visitors arriving on commercial flights to St. Thomas were met at the airport and transported to the island by helicopter. This shuttle service meant that individuals could visit the island without appearing on the Boeing 727's passenger logs, a fact that complicates efforts to compile a comprehensive visitor list from flight records alone.

Pilot Testimony

Epstein's pilots — primarily Larry Visoski and David Rodgers — have provided testimony about their years flying for Epstein. Visoski, who served as Epstein's chief pilot for over 25 years, testified during the Maxwell trial that he maintained the flight logs and recorded passenger names as instructed. He stated that he did not witness sexual abuse on the aircraft but acknowledged that he was typically in the cockpit during flights and had limited visibility into the passenger cabin. The pilots' testimony established the authenticity and general reliability of the flight logs as contemporaneous records of who traveled on Epstein's aircraft.

Rodgers, who also maintained flight records, testified about the frequency and patterns of flights between Epstein's properties. His testimony helped investigators establish timelines that could be cross-referenced with victim accounts and other documentary evidence. The pilots' records have become one of the most important investigative tools in the case, providing a factual backbone that supports or contradicts claims made by individuals about their interactions with Epstein.
