Bank of America flew a Gulfstream G280 (tail N228BA) from Old Kingsbury Aerodrome, near San Antonio, to Ellington Airport in Houston on June 1, 2026. The 67-minute hop covered 188 miles at a modest 408 knots, touching down at 15:19 UTC.

The flight lands the same week Bank of America continues a busy stretch of Texas operations. Recent flights show the bank’s aircraft moving between San Antonio, Austin, Fort Worth, and New York repeatedly in late May — including a May 29 trip from New York to San Antonio and a May 21 leg from Fort Worth to San Antonio. This Houston arrival appears to be a routine connection between two major Texas markets where the bank maintains significant corporate and retail presence.

Bank of America’s corporate flight department, one of the largest in finance, operates a fleet that includes a Boeing BBJ and multiple Gulfstreams. The G280’s short hop from the San Antonio-area airfield to Houston fits a pattern of intra-Texas travel supporting executive meetings and regional oversight, with no single headline-grabbing event driving the trip.
