Aflac flew from Paradise Falls Airport in Georgia to Beverly Regional Airport in Massachusetts on the evening of May 28, 2026 — a 1-hour 52-minute hop in its Gulfstream G280, tail number N280AF. The brief flight from the Atlanta-area strip to the North Shore airport put Aflac within a short drive of downtown Boston the same week the America's Health Insurance Plans (AHIP) Medicare conference is being held at the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center, per the AHIP events calendar published Tuesday.

The conference, which runs May 27-29, is one of the largest annual gatherings of Medicare Advantage and supplemental insurance executives. Aflac, based in Columbus, Georgia, has a major presence in the Medicare supplement market alongside its core Japanese operations. CEO Daniel Amos or other senior leadership typically attend these sessions to meet with brokers and regulators, according to past AHIP attendance records. The May 28 flight arrived just ahead of the final day of programming.

The trip to Beverly fits Aflac’s recurring pattern of flying to Northeast airports. N280AF made two visits to the New York area earlier in May — Washington Dulles on May 21 and Newark on May 27 — and returned to Columbus after the Boston-area trip. Aflac’s choice of Beverly over Logan Airport suggests a preference for general-aviation convenience over a full-service hub, common for corporate travelers arriving for a single-day conference.
