Shaquille O'Neal lands in Boston the week of the NBA playoffs and a TNT reunion.

Shaquille O'Neal flew from Amery, Wisconsin, to Boston Logan International Airport on the evening of May 14, arriving just after midnight in his Bombardier Challenger 605, N3250N. The 2-hour, 29-minute trip followed a day spent in Wisconsin, after earlier flights that week had taken him from the California coast to the Minneapolis area.

The timing of the flight coincides with Shaquille O'Neal's return to TNT's "Inside the NBA" broadcast desk. He missed the network's coverage of the NBA playoffs on Sunday and Tuesday, with Charles Barkley revealing on air that O'Neal was in New York attending the network's upfronts, a major advertising sales event, per Athlon Sports. O'Neal was back in Studio J on Wednesday, where he and Barkley traded barbs over Dwight Howard having filled in as guest analyst — a moment Yahoo Sports described as "all in good fun."

Boston is a familiar destination for O'Neal, who played his final NBA season with the Celtics and has made guest appearances on local station WCVB during past playoff runs. The Challenger 605, which he bought after once saying he'd never own a private jet, logged a reported annual maintenance cost of over $1.3 million, per Supercar Blondie — a figure that hasn't slowed his travel schedule.
