The Frenchman has decided to film his journey, from take-off to arrival and everything in between, in order to show his social media followers exactly what he gets up to.
Being one of the most high-profile, highly paid footballers in the world, Benzema’s lifestyle is nothing short of incomprehensible luxury and fans were given the opportunity to take a closer look courtesy of a series of videos filmed by the 29-year-old.

Starting in chronological order, Benzema kicked off the documenting of his trip by whipping out the camera and showing fans his incredible private jet.
Filming from the runway, Benzema panned across the sleek silver airliner while his entourage busied around him to get things in order for the flight.
A short while later the Madrid ace had arrived at his destination – the Balearic island of Ibiza, one of Europe’s most highly sought after holiday destinations.
Like many high-profile stars, Benzema has property on the White Island and immediately gave fans the tour upon touchdown.

Even though he may be on holiday Benzema is keen to keep in shape ahead of the new season
The striker began by filming the exterior of the plush villa, an expansive holiday home which boasts pristine views out across the Mediterranean and a huge, cliff top pool.
Ever the professional Benzema then hit the gym. That is a built-in home gym, of course.
Going through a series of weight-based exercises before hitting the treadmill, Benzema enjoyed the panoramic views which the plush establishment has to offer.
The filming didn’t stop there for the Madrid hitman, who then decided to take fans on a night journey out across the island.
While unwinding with friends Benzema fired the camera into action once more, filming himself joking around while driving dodgem cars around a track.
The striker could be seen laughing and joking around with his friends while whizzing around a track, bathed in neon light.

Benzema will have the coming weeks to relax and replenish himself before joining back up with his Madrid team-mates ahead of their pre-season tour to America.
As is now custom for Madrid, the Galacticos will head to the States and face the likes of Manchester United, Manchester City and their bitter rivals Barcelona while out there.
While he is no doubt trying to keep football off his mind for a while, Benzema may well be curious about what sort of a Madrid side he will be going back to.
Benzema will now enjoy his break before heading to the USA with Madrid on pre-season tour
The Spanish giants have been heavily linked with the most talked about young footballer on the planet this summer – Kylian Mbappe – and are widely expected to bring the striker to the Bernabeu for a world record fee.
It still remains to be seen however if Los Blancos will be able to keep hold of their prized asset Cristiano Ronaldo, who has voiced concern regarding his career in Spain after being embroiled in a tax dispute with the authorities.
Benzema and Madrid will travel to the US ahead of their first pre-season fixture against Manchester United at the Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara on July 23.
