Which specific flight logs in the Epstein files list Donald Trump and who else appeared on those manifests?

1. The core claim: eight flights between 1993 and 1996

An internal email from a New York federal prosecutor dated January 7, 2020, and included in the DOJ release, states that flight records show Trump is listed as a passenger on “at least eight flights between 1993 and 1996,” a period prosecutors flagged because it overlaps with the timeframe they examined for potential charges in the Maxwell case ^{[4] [1]}. Multiple outlets summarized that same language when the DOJ posted the documents, repeating the eight‑flight count and the 1993–1996 window as the primary concrete detail in the files ^{[2] [3]}.

2. Who else appears on those manifests: Maxwell, redacted women, and sparse passenger lists

The prosecutor’s note specifically says Ghislaine Maxwell is recorded on at least four of the flights on which Trump appears, and that two other flights each included a woman later identified in emails as a potential witness in the Maxwell prosecution — though their names are redacted in the public materials ^{[1] [3] [7]}. The email draws attention to at least two striking entries: a 1993 flight in which the only two listed passengers were Epstein and Trump, and a different flight where the manifest lists Epstein, Trump and a redacted individual described as a 20‑year‑old ^{[3] [8] [2]}.

3. What the logs do not disclose in public releases

The released tranche and reporting make clear that many passenger names and identifying details remain redacted in the public DOJ files — journalists and the prosecutor’s email quote limited specifics (for example the redacted 20‑year‑old and the unnamed “possible witnesses”) rather than full, unredacted manifests — so the public record in these releases does not permit a complete, item‑by‑item reproduction of every passenger list for all eight flights ^{[4] [8]}. Reporting notes previous batches included some flight manifests, but the newest release’s most specific revelations are those flagged by the prosecutor’s internal email rather than a fully published, line‑by‑line manifest for each flight ^{[8] [6]}.

4. Context, caveats, and competing narratives

The Justice Department itself warned that portions of the dropped material include false or unverified claims, a point the DOJ reiterated alongside the file release, and media coverage reflects both that caution and political pushback from Trump’s allies who have disputed that he flew on Epstein’s plane ^{[5] [9]}. Trump has denied wrongdoing and said his acquaintanceship with Epstein ended decades ago; the White House has also framed the release as politically motivated even as the prosecutor’s email is cited by numerous outlets as the basis for the eight‑flight statement ^{[6] [1]}.

5. Bottom line for the record: specific flights named in coverage and limitations

The specific flight entries publicized in the DOJ tranche and highlighted by the prosecutor’s email identify Trump on at least eight flights between 1993 and 1996, with Maxwell on at least four of those; they single out a 1993 flight listing only Epstein and Trump and another flight listing Epstein, Trump and a redacted 20‑year‑old, while two additional flights included redacted passengers described as possible Maxwell‑case witnesses — but the full manifests and many passenger names remain redacted in the released files, limiting what can be definitively reconstructed from the public documents alone ^{[4] [2] [3] [7]}.
