He Xiyan and Ye Hao boarded the Ye family private jet on the 30th of April. Ye Snr. had purchased this private jet, a Boeing 787 passenger jet that could seat more than 300 passengers. Ye Snr. was a very proud man, so it made sense for him to make such a high-profile purchase. This jet belonged to the Ye family and when it wasn't in use, they would lease the jet to a local airline and it would be used for international flights. However, the Ye family stopped leasing this jet over the past two years because Ye Hao had to travel overseas so frequently.
Their pilot was a Norweigian named Philip. He was an experienced pilot who had clocked more than 10,000 hours under his belt.
It might seem strange but this was her first time on the Ye family private jet despite being Ye Hao's ex-wife.
They were a small group on a large plane. Ye Hao had brought along four bodyguards and his assistant on the trip.
