An investigation has identified that approximately 90 flights connected to Jeffrey Epstein are said to have landed at and took off from UK airports, with some allegedly transporting British women who claim they were victimized by the convicted child sex offender.

Flight Logs Show Pattern of Movement

These aviation records were part of a trove of court documents and papers released by the estate of Jeffrey Epstein that have been made public over the last year. The review uncovered 87 aircraft movements tied to Epstein – including many that were not previously known – landing or taking off from British airfields between the early 1990s and 2018.

Passenger Details and Post-Conviction Travel

Unnamed “females” were recorded among the travelers entering and exiting the UK. Crucially, 15 of these UK flights occurred after Epstein’s 2008 guilty verdict for soliciting sex from a underage person.

“This is ‘astonishing’ that there had never been a ‘full-scale UK investigation’ into his operations in the country,” said US lawyers representing hundreds of Epstein victims.

UK Survivors and Legal Proceedings

A statement from one of the UK-based survivors helped convict Epstein’s associate socialite Ghislaine Maxwell of child sex-trafficking in the US in 2021. Yet, that survivor has not been approached by UK authorities, according to her attorney based in Florida.

In a response, the London's Metropolitan Police said they had “not received any new information that would support restarting the probe.” They noted, “Should new and relevant information be brought to our attention, encompassing any arising from the disclosure of documents in the US, we will review it.”

Ongoing Document Release and Legal Rulings

A bill to disclose every document held by the US government in relation to Epstein passed the House and Senate last month. The US justice department has until 19 December to follow through. Hundreds of thousands of documents are anticipated to be made public.

Additionally, a federal judge ordered last week that the department could disclose case files from a trafficking prosecution against Maxwell, Epstein’s close friend, who is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence over the allegations.
