'Retired pilot' claimed Trump's plane flew to Epstein's island 37 times. Here are the facts
In August 2025, a Facebook user who said he was a former Canadian Airlines pilot claimed that U.S. President Donald Trump's plane flew to the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein's island at least 37 times.
Epstein, who died in prison in 2019, owned the Great St. James and Little St. James islands, part of the U.S. Virgin Islands. Prosecutors claimed Epstein trafficked underage girls to Little St. James to conceal the abuse of his victims.
However, we found no evidence that the claim about Trump's plane flying to Little St. James was true. We could not verify that the Facebook user who made the claim actually worked for Canadian Airlines, a carrier that Air Canada acquired in 2001. Alongside the claim, the Facebook user shared a picture of himself wearing what appeared to be a pilot's costume from the online retailer Amazon.
Reporting about Little St. James found that guests accessed the island either by boat or helicopter because it didn't have an airstrip, further discrediting the claim that any of Trump or his businesses' planes would have flown to or landed there.
Trump said in January 2025 that he never visited Epstein's island.
In August 2025, a claim (archived) circulated online, reportedly made by a retired Canadian Airlines pilot, that U.S. President Donald Trump's plane flew to the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein's island at least 37 times.
Tom Crosby, the Facebook user who first made the claim on Aug. 6, 2025, wrote:
I dont know, but every flight that flies is tracked by ATS. Donald Trump's plane flew to Epstein's island at least 37 times, tracked on radar. You're welcome. All flights anywhere are saved for ten years or more. Retired pilot, Canadian Airlines First Officer Tom Crosby
(Facebook user Tom Crosby)
The claim was popular on Facebook (archived). It also circulated on X (archived), Threads (archived) and Bluesky (archived). Snopes readers wrote in asking if the claim was true.
However, we found no evidence to prove Crosby's claim and further research shed doubt on his alleged credentials. Commenters on Crosby's post pointed out that the pin he wore in the attached photo did not look like one belonging to Canadian Airlines, a carrier that Air Canada acquired in 2001. Rather, the pin appeared to come from a pilot's costume from the online retailer Amazon, which also included a white shirt with epaulets like the one Crosby wore.
Commenters also asked for more proof of Crosby's claim, which we also did not find reported in reputable news sources (archived, archived, archived, archived). The claim would have been widely reported if true. Crosby claimed "All flights anywhere are saved for ten years or more," a statement we found difficult to stand up.
We reached out to Crosby to ask for evidence of his claim and former employment with Canadian Airlines. We also reached out to Air Canada to attempt to verify Crosby's claimed former employment. We reached out to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the government agency that regulates civil aviation in the U.S., to verify Crosby's claims about flight record retention. We await replies to our queries.
Trump said in January 2025 he never visited Epstein's island, which prosecutors alleged the financier used to conceal the sex trafficking and abuse of underage victims. Epstein owned the Great St. James and Little St. James islands in the U.S. Virgin Islands before his death in 2019. He used Little St. James to entertain prominent guests from fields spanning politics, entertainment and business and had reportedly intended to develop Great St. James with homes and other amenities.
Crosby's claim departed from reality
Upon inspection, elements of Crosby's claim appeared to discredit the idea that flight records existed to prove that "Donald Trump's plane" flew to Little St. James Island 37 times.
Firstly, the Trump Organization owns multiple planes and helicopters. Trump bought a Boeing 727 in 1997 that had previously flown as part of Trump Shuttle, Trump's short-lived airline. He then replaced the 727 in 2011 with the current Trump Force One. The Trump Organization also owned a Cessna Citation X that it sold in May 2024. Crosby did not specify which aircraft his claim referred to. Additionally, Little St. James Island does not have an airstrip. Rather, an investigation into visitors to the island by the tech magazine WIRED in 2024 found that people arrived on the island either by helicopter or boat after flying to nearby St. Thomas.
