Exelon Falcon 7X lands in Colorado after CEO Calvin Butler speaks at energy conference

Exelon's Dassault Falcon 7X, tail N496AC, touched down at Eagle County Regional Airport on June 10 after a 10-hour flight from central Germany. The trip caps a European swing that included stops in Italy and Austria over the preceding days.

The arrival comes the same week Exelon CEO Calvin Butler was in Washington, D.C. speaking on a panel at Semafor World Economy, where he called for permitting reform to address rising electricity costs and inadequate supply to meet surging demand from data centers and other large loads, per Semafor's coverage of the April 16 event. Butler has also been navigating affordability pressures that led Exelon to trim utility spending by $350 million while boosting transmission investment, as detailed by Utility Dive in June.

Eagle County is a known retreat for executives and a gateway to the Vail Valley. The pattern of recent flights shows Exelon's jet transited from Colorado to Europe and back, with stops in Milan and Salzburg, suggesting a multi-leg business trip that concluded with a return to a secondary hub rather than Chicago O'Hare. Exelon's primary base remains KORD, but the Falcon 7X often calls on destinations like KPHL and KIAD for subsidiary meetings and regulatory engagements.
