Earlier today (August 16), Lindise Chrisley shares a photo of Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker as they prepare to board a plane. According to the caption, it is Kourtney’s sister, Kylie Jenner’s plane. This is a major milestone for Blink-182 drummer, Travis Barker. He hasn’t been on a plane since surviving a plane crash in 2008.

In 2008, Travis was on a private plane heading towards Van Nuys, California when the jet crashed in South Carolina. The two pilots, Travis’ security guard, Charles Still, and his assistant, Chris Baker, did not survive. Travis ending up enduring months in the hospital and contemplated suicide according to an interview he gave ABC News in 2015.

Did he do it for Kourt?

In June, the drummer tweets that “I might fly again.” People are quick to speculate that it has something to do with Kourtney. Which may be true in part. It’s no secret that the Kardashian-Jenners like to frequently travel by plane. However, in 2015 he told the media something that he tells his children. “I tell my children, ‘When you’re ready to fly, I’m ready to fly’,” shares the father of two.

According to CNN Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker traveled from Los Angeles to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. Once there, the paparazzi capture a photo of the couple disembarking from Kylie’s private jet.  Buzzfeed reports the couple met Kourtney’s mom, Kris Jenner, and her boyfriend, Corey Gamble in Cabo.

A source close to the couple gives some insight into the significance of this trip. “Kourtney has been very supportive. She never pushed for him to fly. They have managed to travel in the US without having to fly and Kourtney has been totally fine with it.”

What does this have to do with Lindsie Chrisley?

So what does this have to do with Lindsie Chrisley? Almost nothing. In 2014, when Chrisley Knows Best was about to premiere the media speculates that the Chrisleys are going to remind views of the Kardashians. Since then, there have been sporadic comments on social media along the lines of “quit trying to be like the Kardashians.”

Yahoo article at the time lists the parallels of the Chrisleys and Kardashians. They say that Todd and Kris are similar since they are the leaders of their families. Almost by proxy, they liken Julie to Caitlyn Jenner. Due to their love of fashion, the article pairs Savannah with Kim. Here’s the irony, the article also compares Lindsie to Kourtney. The author makes this pairing because both women “are comfortable doing what’s best for themselves.”
