Brad Pitt airport plane angelina jolie airplane private plane

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie packed up the entire family for a private flight out of Van Nuys at 10:30am this morning, the day of Brad's 46th birthday.

With the amount of bags they had -- not to mention the piles and piles of presents our photogs spotted -- and the long goodbyes to their staff, it looks as if the Jolie-Pitt family will be gone for quite some time!

The globe-trotting couple has spent their past holidays out of town (either in France or New Orleans) and it looks like this year won't be any different!
