Eddie Murphy chartered two private planes to transport his friends to Greece. The 'Meet Dave' actor is said to have specifically demanded two separate airborne vehicles for the trip - one for adults and one for children.
However, while stars including P. Diddy are cutting down on their jet use in a bid to be ecologically aware, Eddie seemed less than concerned about his damage to the planet - and even failed to use all the seats in the aircraft.
A source said: "Eddie insisted on hiring a 12-seater plane because he said he wanted privacy, but there were only six adults travelling in it in the end. He also booked some more of his friends on a commercial flight to ensure he had a fun-filled holiday."
During his break, Eddie will tour around Greek Islands with friends in a huge lavish yacht. He is also planning trips to Athens on private planes. Eddie is expected to return to America on September 7.
