Dominion Energy flew from Hummel Seaplane Base in New Jersey to London Stansted on June 6, a 2-hour 8-minute hop that landed just after midnight. The Gulfstream G450, tail number N607D, reached 30,000 feet and a top speed of 455 knots on the crossing.
The same week, the company's proposed all-stock merger with NextEra Energy — valued at roughly $67 billion per the SEC filing — moves closer to regulatory review. The combined utility would serve 10 million customers across four states, and Dominion has pledged $2.25 billion in bill credits for its Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina customers over two years post-close, as reported by WHRO. A London stop suggests investor meetings or discussions with international stakeholders ahead of the Virginia State Corporation Commission's expected ruling in January 2027.
The trip marks a departure from Dominion Energy's usual pattern of flights between its Richmond base and domestic hubs like Charlotte, Chicago, and Miami. The seaplane departure in New Jersey, followed by a transatlantic leg, hints at a high-level business agenda tied to the largest utility deal in years.
