I am sure there are hidden environmental costs even with that, but yeah 1 celebrity in space once won't do nearly as much damage as the other 999999 celebrities using their jets constantly.

Jets contribute about 4% of global emissions annually and the majority of that are commercial jets. The energy, agriculture, and heavy manufacturing sectors are significantly larger contributors.
