Justin Flies Southwest To Vegas

TMZ caught Justin exiting the Southwest Airport in Las Vegas yesterday afternoon where it was reported he would be holding a party for the premiere of his new tequila brand 901.

Even though he’s worth a kazillion dollars, Justin Timberlake skipped the private jet for a low-budget Southwest Airlines flight from Burbank to Las Vegas on Friday afternoon. This is how the rich stay rich.

According to a TMZ spy who happened to be on the same flight, JT and his bodyguard were allowed to board the plane first — but somehow the massive bodyguard got stuck in the dreaded middle seat anyway. We’re told the bodyguard tried to shoo away a passenger who asked for an autograph after the flight, but Justin happily signed anyway.

Even when flying budget, Justin keeps it first class.
