Fear of the Virus, Jakarta Socialite Reportedly Books an Entire Flight

The pandemic has brought out the best in us when it comes to following safety protocol to keep the virus at bay. But some people could go to any length to protect themselves and their families.

Take the case of famous Jakarta Socialite Richard Muljadi. He claimed that he booked an entire flight to Bali to protect himself and his partner from COVID-19. 

Apparently, his wife Shalvynne Chang and he were paranoid about contracting the virus. “Had to make sure no one else (was on) this flight. We ain't flying unless it's just us”, he wrote in his Insta stories. 

He added, “Bye, ghost ship” probably when his journey came to an end. 

Richard shared a couple of pics in his Instagram stories that show him seated alone in a flight. 

He captioned the post: “After I'd book(ed) as many seats as possible, it was still cheaper than chattering (chartering) a PJ (private jet). That's the trick fellas. #LIFEHACKS.”

Even Lion air group – the owners of Batik air confirmed that the wealthy couple were on fight ID-6502 from Jakarta to Denpasar, Bali on the afternoon of Tuesday, January 5, 2021.

The catch here however was that the couple had booked only two seats and not the entire flight as claimed by the wealthy socialite in his Insta stories. 

Richard’s followers believed his claims because he is indeed wealthy and the proof of his opulent lifestyle lies in his Instagram photographs. 

Another stunt of this crazy rich socialite includes gifting an expensive car to his French bull dog with a customized number plate on its birthday. 

Unmistakably, being rich has its own perks!
