Travolta's two-jet day, and his 707's long voyage ends in Australia

Start with the biggest carbon footprint: John Travolta alone emitted 126.7 metric tons of CO₂ yesterday—more than half of the entire celeb-plane fleet's daily total of 894.2 tons. Across 120 closed flights, the jets covered 97,190 miles and spent 217.7 hours airborne. Travolta was both top mover (2 flights, 21.1 hours) and top emitter. Allegheny County Airport (KAGC) logged the most arrivals, with nine.

John Travolta's Boeing 737-300, tail N327JT, departed Spokane International Airport and flew 11.9 hours to Shannon Airport—the longest single flight of the day. The aircraft, built in 1988 and once a commercial airliner, now serves as Travolta's personal long-haul cruiser. This particular leg likely positioned him for further travel; he also flew N59DB, a Dassault Falcon 900B, from St. Petersburg Clearwater to Nice-Côte d'Azur in 9.2 hours

. The dual flights underscore a busy transatlantic schedule for the actor-pilot, whose aviation collection has made headlines today as his former Boeing 707—once owned by Frank Sinatra—arrived by ship in Australia after two months at sea [abc.net.au](https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-05-13/john-travolta-plane-arrives-by-boat/106673372).

Corporate America was also airborne. Nike's Gulfstream G650ER, tail N6453, flew from Portland Hillsboro to London Luton in 8.4 hours

—likely shuttling executives for European retail or marketing meetings. Halliburton's N235DX, a Bombardier Global 6000, made a 7.5-hour hop from Amsterdam to Pittsburgh International

, a route that suggests a return from energy-industry talks. And Elon Musk's Gulfstream G650ER, N8628, flew from Joint Base Andrews to Ted Stevens Anchorage International in 6.4 hours

. Anchorage is a frequent refueling stop for trans-Pacific travel, hinting at a possible onward leg to Asia.

Today, the aviation world is watching Shellharbour, where John Travolta's donated Boeing 707 will be trucked from Port Kembla to the Historical Aircraft Restoration Society (HARS) museum. The aircraft—which Travolta flew as a Qantas ambassador and which once ferried Frank Sinatra—was disassembled in Georgia and shipped across the Pacific. HARS vice president Maureen Massey called the arrival a “thrill” after nearly a decade of planning [abc.net.au](https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-05-13/john-travolta-plane-arrives-by-boat/106673372). Meanwhile, celebrity airport traffic tracked by CelebrityPrivateJetTracker shows Opa Locka Airport in Miami as a hotspot this month, with 12 unique celebrity visitors including Alex Rodriguez, Floyd Mayweather, and Lady Gaga [celebrityprivatejettracker.com](https://celebrityprivatejettracker.com/airports/). Expect another busy day of private-jet movement around the Cannes Film Festival and NHL playoffs.

The desk is tracking a flight plan that may appear for N8628 (Elon Musk) from Anchorage eastward, possibly toward Asia or back to California. Our prediction model correctly scored 46 of 104 guesses yesterday; we're refining parameters for today's slate. Also watch for HARS to begin reassembling Travolta's 707—a six-month project that will turn a piece of Hollywood-aviation history into a static display by early 2027.
