John Travolta's aviation company, Constellation Productions, was defrauded out of nearly $800,000 between October 2021 and July 2023. That's over R14 million. One pilot is in jail after being charged with money laundering more than $100,000, committing organised fraud of property of more than $50,000, and committing grand theft of more than $100,000. The total charges reportedly stolen from the Grease actor were $785,050.

According to the police report, an accounting review of the invoices from Lux and the actual FBOs revealed that the charges from the brokerage were inflated either through an incorrect report of gallons purchased, a change in price per gallon, or both. In addition, Lux Fuels invoices contained administration fees. Further investigation revealed that some of the funds in the Lux Fuels account were transferred to an account held by JPL Aviation, managed by Lacruz Romero, the police report says.
