Barack Obama was photographed boarding Ashton Kutcher’s plane Thursday night in Los Angeles.
He was seen with several members of his security detail around 6.30pm as they boarded the plane at Van Nuys Airport.
Dressed in a suit and holding a drink, Obama climbed the steps of a multi-vehicle motorcade.
He has various celebrity friends and has been spotted on Steven Spielberg’s jet in the past.
Obama may have been in LA to visit his two daughters, Sasha and Malia, who both live in the Southern California city.

Van Nuys Airport is a public airport in north Los Angeles.
Kutcher and his wife Mila Kunis met Leonardo DiCaprio at the airport last year after a trip to the Bahamas
DiCaprio, waiting to board his own private jet, bumped fists with Kunis before exchanging what appeared to be a few friendly words.
The three, who met at a private jet terminal, struck a tongue-in-cheek note as they are all known for their vocal support for environmental issues.
More than five years ago, Kutcher, along with Jay Z, Will Smith and Marc Benioff, invested in BlackJet, an on-demand private jet startup. It went out of business in 2016.
It’s not clear if Kutcher owns the jet Obama boarded or if it was chartered.
