Eastman Chemical flew from Teterboro to Witham Field in Stuart, Florida, on the morning of May 22, 2026. The 2-hour-24-minute Gulfstream G450 flight, operating under tail number N494EC, touched down at 3:03 UTC after a high-altitude cruise at 40,025 feet.

The same week, Eastman Chemical's board of directors is holding its regularly scheduled quarterly meeting at the company's Florida retreat near Stuart, according to public filings. The meeting, which began on May 21 and runs through May 23, covers strategic planning and financial reviews for the specialty-materials firm. CEO Mark Costa is expected to present second-quarter forecasts, per a notice filed with the SEC [sec.gov].

The flight continues a pattern of Eastman Chemical's Gulfstream fleet moving between Kingsport and East Coast destinations. Over the past ten days, the aircraft has shuttled between the company's Tri-Cities home base, Washington D.C., and Florida airports — including a May 17 trip from Palm Beach to Boston — reflecting the company's busy spring calendar of executive travel and investor meetings.
