Imagine the turquoise waters of the Caribbean sparkling below as Jeffrey Epstein’s private jet, the notorious Lolita Express, descends toward his secluded Little St. James island—now infamous as the epicenter of alleged sex trafficking horrors.
Flight logs and court records repeatedly place Prince Andrew and supermodel Naomi Campbell among the high-profile passengers making dozens of trips aboard the plane, with routes leading straight to that private paradise where Epstein is accused of exploiting and abusing young women. Prince Andrew appears in multiple entries, including flights to and from the island, while Campbell logged at least five documented flights in the early 2000s, some originating from the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Both have denied any knowledge of or involvement in Epstein’s crimes—Andrew settled a civil lawsuit with an accuser, and Campbell has called his actions “indefensible”—yet their frequent presence on these logs raises unsettling questions: What drew them to those isolated skies? What conversations or events unfolded on the ground?
The elite connections linger in the shadows, but the full story of those island visits remains shrouded in silence.
The turquoise waters of the Caribbean sparkle below as Jeffrey Epstein’s private jet, the notorious Lolita Express, begins its descent toward Little St. James—the secluded island now synonymous with allegations of sex trafficking and abuse.
Flight logs, pilot testimonies, and unsealed court records from cases involving Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell repeatedly place high-profile figures among the passengers on routes leading to this private paradise in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Prince Andrew, the Duke of York (later stripped of his royal titles in 2025 amid ongoing controversy), appears in multiple entries. Logs document him flying with Epstein and Maxwell, including a 2000 trip from New Jersey to Florida, and earlier records from February 1999 show visits to the island. Virginia Giuffre, one of Epstein’s accusers, alleged sexual encounters with Andrew on the island and elsewhere, claims supported in part by flight logs placing them in the same locations—though Andrew has consistently denied any wrongdoing, settled a civil lawsuit with Giuffre in 2022 for an undisclosed sum, and stated he ended contact once Epstein’s crimes became known.
Supermodel Naomi Campbell also features prominently in the records. Flight logs list her on at least four to five documented flights in the early 2000s, including some originating from or connected to the U.S. Virgin Islands. She met Epstein around 2001 through mutual contacts in fashion and modeling circles, where he was a frequent presence at events like Victoria’s Secret shows. Campbell has repeatedly denied any knowledge of or involvement in Epstein’s criminal activities, describing his actions as “indefensible” in interviews and emphasizing she cut ties long before his convictions. She has pushed back against speculation, noting that association alone does not imply guilt.
The Lolita Express—a Boeing 727 often used to shuttle guests between Epstein’s properties—became a symbol of unchecked elite access. Passengers ranged from politicians and celebrities to young women later identified as victims or witnesses. While many flights involved legitimate social or business travel, the island itself, with its isolated compound, stands accused as the epicenter of exploitation, where underage girls were allegedly abused for Epstein’s gratification and that of associates.
Both Prince Andrew and Naomi Campbell have maintained they had no awareness of Epstein’s horrors during their associations. Andrew, in a infamous 2019 BBC interview, defended his friendship as limited and unrelated to crimes; Campbell has framed her encounters as professional or incidental. No flight logs or official probes have directly implicated either in criminal acts, and presence on manifests alone proves no misconduct—many traveled with staff, family, or in groups for varied reasons.
Yet the frequency of these journeys to such a remote destination raises persistent, unsettling questions: What drew powerful figures to those isolated skies and shores? What interactions occurred amid the luxury and seclusion? The elite connections linger in the public record’s shadows—photos, manifests, and denials—while the full story of those island visits remains partially shrouded in redactions, settlements, and silence. As more documents surface under transparency efforts, the turquoise waters below continue to reflect fragments of a scandal that refuses to fully submerge.
