Which specific flight logs in the Epstein files list Little St. James as a destination and which passengers are named in those logs?
Executive summary
The Department of Justice’s release of Epstein-related documents included handwritten flight logs that prosecutors entered at the Ghislaine Maxwell trial and which, according to multiple news outlets and archive repositories, contain repeated entries for flights to Little Saint James (also called Little St. James) and passenger names associated with Epstein’s network [1] [2] [3]. Public reporting and the raw log repositories name numerous passengers who appear on those logs, but the sources provided do not supply a single, compact list in this briefing that ties every specific log page number to every named passenger for every Little St. James entry — researchers must consult the DOJ and DocumentCloud files page-by-page for a definitive cross-reference [1] [2].
1. What the official flight‑log releases actually contain
The U.S. Department of Justice made flight logs part of the evidentiary record in the U.S. v. Maxwell matter; the DOJ-hosted “Flight Log_Released in U.S. v. Maxwell” document is the official source for the hand‑written logs that list aircraft tail numbers, dates, routes and passenger names, and includes entries that prosecutors used at trial [1]. Independent archives and DocumentCloud mirror those logs and present the same scanned pages; DocumentCloud explicitly hosts the flight‑log pages entered in evidence [2]. Public archival collections also host an “unredacted” compiled PDF of Epstein flight logs that mirrors many of those same handwritten entries [4].
2. Which pages and entries list Little St. James as a destination — reporting vs. primary records
Reporting by outlets that reviewed the DOJ release and log scans states that Little St. James was a “regular destination” in the logs introduced at trial — for instance, Law & Crime summarized that the nearly 120 pages of handwritten flight logs showed repeated trips and passenger lists, and that pilots testified the island was a routine stop [3]. However, the sources provided here do not include a single extracted table mapping each scanned page number to the specific “Little St. James” notation; instead, the primary evidence lives in the DOJ and DocumentCloud scanned log files, which must be read page‑by‑page to identify each Little St. James entry [1] [2].
3. Which passengers are named on logs that go to Little St. James
News reports and trial exhibits show that the flight logs and related testimony name a mix of Epstein, his staff, pilots, and various high‑profile passengers on trips that included Little St. James. Law & Crime noted detailed passenger lists entered into evidence and cited specific entries such as references to meetings with Princess Sarah Ferguson on the ground [3]. Newsweek summarized pilot testimony that Little St. James was a regular destination and referenced named flyers in the logs, including political and entertainment figures [5]. Wikipedia’s compilation of flight‑log reporting lists frequently cited names associated with Epstein’s aircraft manifests — for example, names reported in public summaries include Ron Burkle, Naomi Campbell, Alan Dershowitz and Larry Summers — but that source aggregates reporting rather than serving as a primary log index [6]. Importantly, some claims about particular individuals — such as Bill Clinton — are contested: Wikipedia and other reporting note claimed sightings but also that Secret Service records and the logs as released do not show Clinton flying on Epstein’s planes near the United States [7] [6].
4. Newer document releases and email records that complicate the picture
Beyond the flight logs, DOJ document releases have included emails and attachments showing planning of island visits by people who are not always clearly tied to specific plane manifests; recent reporting (The Guardian, BBC, The New York Times) used the wider DOJ dump to show email discussions about trips to Little St. James by figures like Elon Musk (email planning in 2012–2013) and Howard Lutnick (a planned 2012 family visit), but those email threads are distinct from the handwritten flight‑log pages and do not by themselves prove a named individual’s appearance on a particular logged flight [8] [9] [10].
5. How to verify specific log pages and named passengers
The only way to answer with full precision which exact flight‑log pages list Little St. James and which named passengers appear on those particular pages is to consult the DOJ flight‑log release and the DocumentCloud scan set directly and transcribe the relevant page numbers and lines [1] [2]. Public reporting points to many names and confirms Little St. James repeatedly appears as a destination in the evidentiary logs, but the sources assembled here do not contain one precompiled crosswalk that lists every log page, date, and passenger for every Little St. James entry [3] [5].
