Sean "Diddy" Combs is done with his $250,000 round-trips.

In his latest video blog, shot while boarding a regular old American Airlines flight, the hip-hop and fashion mogul cites inflated fuel costs as the reason he's had to ground his private jet for the time being.

"Gas prices are too motherf--kin' high," Combs complains, explaining that it has just gotten too expensive to fly back and forth between New York and L.A. (where he's pursuing his acting career) twice a month.

"I want to give a shout-out to all my Saudi Arabian brothers and sisters and all my brothers and sisters from all the countries that have oil. If y'all could please send me some oil for my jet, I would truly appreciate it."

The OPEC aficionado can hardly believe his misfortune as he proceeds through the terminal.

"Can you believe this, I'm actually flying commercial, that's how high gas prices are! So I feel you! Look, I'm at the gate right now. This is really happening..."

And then, the little shadow demons from Ghost appear and drag Diddy into the depths of hell.

Aka coach.
