John Travolta flew from Westchester County Airport to Hollywood Burbank Airport early on May 23, 2026, piloting his Bombardier Global Express (N59DB) on a five-hour, 24-minute cross-country flight. The trip came less than a week after he flew himself and his daughter Ella Bleu from Cannes, where they attended the premiere of his directorial debut, Propeller One-Way Night Coach.

The destination is no coincidence: the film, which Travolta wrote, directed, and stars in alongside Ella Bleu, premieres globally on Apple TV+ on May 29, per a Yahoo! Entertainment report. The Burbank arrival positions him for the final stretch of press and promotional events in the Los Angeles area ahead of the streaming release.

The flight continues a pattern of hands-on travel for the 72-year-old actor and licensed pilot. Earlier in May, he flew his Global Express to Cannes for the film's festival debut, and recent flight logs show a route from Ocala to Cannes, then to Shannon, Ireland, and on to New York before this final leg to Burbank. Travolta earned his Global Express second-in-command rating in February, adding to a fleet that includes a Boeing 737 and a Dassault Falcon 900, as noted by Brookfield Aviation.
