Chris Hemsworth charters a private jet from Sydney back to Byron Bay after filming scenes for Thor

Chris Hemsworth spent his week hard at work on the set of Thor: Love and Thunder in Sydney.

On Friday, the 37-year-old chartered a private jet back home to Byron Bay, and to his wife Elsa Pataky and their three young children.

Instead of opting to do the eight-hour drive home, the actor was seen at a Sydney airport chatting to jet staff before boarding his one-hour flight up north.

It was his second trip by private jet in four days, with the actor also boarding a chartered flight to Sydney alongside his co-star Matt Damon on Sunday. 

Despite his penchant for private flights, Chris is known to be a climate change activist. 

He marched alongside daughter India in a strike at Byron Bay in 2019, calling for action on the issue.
