Exelon Corporation's Dassault Falcon 7X, tail number N496AC, departed Portland International Airport on May 11, 2026, at 10:28 p.m. local time, crossing into Mexico to touch down at Cabo San Lucas International Airport just after 2 a.m. the next day. The 3-hour-36-minute flight cruised at 41,000 feet, reaching a maximum ground speed of 501 knots, ferrying executives from the Pacific Northwest hub to the Baja California peninsula.

The trip coincides with a quiet week in Cabo San Lucas, free of major conferences or regulatory deadlines tied to Exelon's transmission and distribution operations. Instead, it follows the company's first-quarter earnings release on May 6, where Exelon reported adjusted operating earnings of $0.91 per share and announced shifts in capital spending toward transmission projects, per the official release. Cabo remains a favored spot for corporate retreats among U.S. executives seeking respite from boardrooms and grid demands.

This landing caps a whirlwind of recent activity for N496AC, which shuttled between Cabo San Lucas, the Denver area, and Portland over the past week—departing Cabo for Denver on May 7, returning May 9, heading to Portland May 11, and now looping back south. While Exelon's recurring routes stick to domestic business centers like Philadelphia and Washington, D.C., these Baja jaunts hint at off-the-books renewal for CEO Calvin Butler and team, far from Chicago headquarters.
