Discount Tire's Bombardier Challenger 300, tail N800BD, was tracked departing Scottsdale Airport at 2:03 p.m. local time on June 29, 2026, and arriving at Albuquerque International Sunport 48 minutes later, climbing to 35,050 feet and reaching a max ground speed of 523.5 knots.

If Discount Tire leadership were aboard, the flight would land in New Mexico the same week the company launches its National Tire Safety Week campaign, offering complimentary tire safety checks at over 1,275 locations nationwide from June 29 to July 4, per a PRNewswire release. The visit also comes as Discount Tire breaks ground on its first Carlsbad, New Mexico store, with construction starting March 30, as reported by the Los Angeles News Journal, suggesting a possible site visit or regional coordination.

The flight follows a pattern of recent trips by the same aircraft, including a June 26 hop from Scottsdale to Colorado and back, and a June 28 leg from San Diego to Los Angeles, consistent with the company's regional business operations across its 40-state footprint.
