Elon Musk flies to San Jose the same week his new Gulfstream G800 footprint grows in California.

Elon Musk flew from Austin to San Jose on May 26, 2026, aboard his Gulfstream G650ER (N628TS), landing at Norman Y. Mineta San Jose International Airport at 12:08 p.m. local time after a three-hour-seven-minute hop from his home base in Texas.

The arrival comes the same week that fresh flight tracking data, per celebplanes records, shows Musk’s newer Gulfstream G800 (N8628) making multiple trips between San Jose and Austin and shuttling between Hawthorne and Los Angeles. San Jose serves as the gateway to Silicon Valley, where Musk’s Neuralink and Tesla’s Engineering HQ are based — a familiar beat for a CEO whose 2024 travel log logged 355 flights, per JetSpy data cited by Business Insider.

Musk’s G650ER has flown several short West Coast hops in recent days, including a May 23 run from Brownsville to Moffett Field. The new G800, delivered in February 2025 and registered under Falcon Landing LLC, lacks full FAA Privacy ICAO Address protection, keeping it visible to ADS-B networks — a curious omission for a subject who has called jet tracking “assassination coordinates,” as noted in a ground control report.
