Lakshmi Mittal
Lakshmi Mittal flew from White Waltham Airfield near London to Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport on the evening of May 28, 2026, a 90-minute hop aboard his Bombardier Global 7500 (G-LOBX).
The flight lands as the French Riviera enters its late-spring social season, though no public event or corporate meeting was publicly listed for Mittal in the area. Per the billionaire's known pattern, the journey is most likely a personal one to a residence maintained by the steel magnate on the Côte d'Azur.
Mittal, who moved his tax residence to Switzerland in 2024 but retains homes in London and Dubai, has long used the region for private getaways. This trip, his only recorded flight in recent days, suggests a quiet start to the summer rather than a business stop—a reminder that even the chairman of the world's largest steel company occasionally flies for pleasure.
