Jerry Jones flew from Dallas Love Field to a remote airstrip in Peru on May 10, then continued to Brazil on May 11, arriving the same week the NFL confirmed the Dallas Cowboys will play the Baltimore Ravens at Maracanã Stadium in Rio de Janeiro in Week 3 of the 2026 season, per a team announcement covered by DallasCowboys.com.

Jones, who has business interests in Brazil and called the game "a big deal" in a February interview, was joined by players including quarterback Dak Prescott, who said he was "super excited" for the international trip. The Cowboys last played outside the U.S. in 2014, and the Rio game marks the NFL's first in Brazil.

The flight follows a pattern of Cowboys-related travel: Jones flew to Florida on May 7 and returned to Dallas on May 9, likely for team business. His Gulfstream V, tail N1DC, remains the primary aircraft for the Jones family and Cowboys operations.
