Crown has started flying its three luxury jets to emerging Asian economies including Thailand and Cambodia as it trawls the region for high-rollers, an analysis of flight data reveals. Data from Airservices Australia shows that Crown's fleet of private jets is increasingly flying to overseas destinations. Billionaire James Packer has jetted back into Australia for a stay at Crown Casino. The reason for his visit — his first in a year — has not been confirmed but it could be for the funeral of his long-time personal chef Justin Bull, who was found dead at his Sydney cafe on Friday.
PM and treasurer bill taxpayers for private jet to Lachlan Murdoch's Christmas party. Anthony Pratt, the former NSW premier Mike Baird and the Crown casino boss, John Alexander. The Royal Family of Bahrain travels in two private Boeing 747 jet, with registration A9C-HMK and A9C-HAK. ‘HAK' obviously stands for Hamad al Khalifa. This jet was originally built for the Sultan of Oman. Its customized interior cost more than US$ 100 million. Later the jet was sold to the Royal Family of Abu Dhabi. A 'whale' in Crown's dictionary means a person who can lose up to $10 million in just one hour and who can be 'delivered' to the venue via a private jet. That's exactly what Jiang was doing, or was at least tasked to do.

Kakavas v Crown Melbourne Ltd & Ors [2013] HCA 25 is a landmarkAustralianjudgment of the High Court.[1] The matter related to claims that casino had taken unfair or unconscientious advantage of the opportunity created by a patron's special disadvantage, being a gambling problem.[2]
Harry Kakavas a known problem gambler who had a gambling turnover of $1.5 billion and losses of $20.5 million claimed Melbourne's Crown Casino had engaged in unconscionable conduct by 'luring' him into the casino with incentives and the use of the casino's private jet.[3] In earlier proceedings it had also been claimed that a duty of care was owed by Crown to a patron with a gambling problem[4] and that Crown lured or enticed him into its casino.[5][6]
The High Court, in a joint judgement, approved the observation by the primary judge that '[i]n the absence of a relevant legislative provision, there is no general duty upon a casino to protect gamblers from themselves.'[7] The Court found that Mr Kakavas wasn't at a special disadvantage which made him susceptible to exploitation by Crown and was able to make rational decisions in his own interests, including deciding from time to time to refrain from gambling altogether. Crown did not knowingly victimise Mr Kavakas by allowing him to gamble at its casino.[8]
