Jim Carrey returns to Van Nuys after a weekend in Cabo San Lucas

Jim Carrey flew from Cabo San Lucas International Airport (MMSL) to his home base at Van Nuys Airport (KVNY) on May 17, 2026, a trip of just over two hours in his Gulfstream V, N162JC. The aircraft tracked from Baja California Sur to Southern California at an altitude of 43,050 feet and a top ground speed of 476 knots.

The same week, Carrey has no publicly scheduled film premieres, court appearances, court appearances, or high-profile events in Los Angeles. The flight appears to be a routine return from a long weekend in Cabo, a common leisure destination for West Coast private-jet owners. Carrey sold his longtime Brentwood home for $17 million in August 2025, a 41% discount off the original $28.9 million asking price, per a PEOPLE report from May 2025. Since the sale, he has maintained his aircraft's home base at Van Nuys, suggesting he maintains a residence or storage in the Los Angeles area.

Recent flight patterns show Carrey's Gulfstream V has made multiple trips in May 2026, including a hop to Grand Junction, Colorado, and a stop in Las Vegas, followed by the Cabo excursion. The week's travel suggests a mix of personal leisure and possible real estate or business activity, though no specific public appearance explains the Cabo trip beyond relaxation.
