Larry Ellison flies from Van Nuys to Palm Beach the week of the Stargate AI summit's quarterly review

Larry Ellison flew his Gulfstream G650, tail N817GS, from Van Nuys Airport (KVNY) to Palm Beach International Airport (KPBI) on May 21, 2026, a flight lasting four hours and fifteen minutes. The aircraft reached a maximum altitude of 47,050 feet and a top ground speed of 556 knots.

Ellison’s return to his Manalapan home comes the same week as the quarterly review of the Stargate AI infrastructure initiative, the $500 billion venture he announced with former President Donald Trump at the White House in 2025, per a recent report from the Billionaire Reporter. Oracle, which controls a 15% stake in TikTok’s U.S. entity as part of the same deal, is also navigating ongoing federal data center policy talks. With Mar-a-Lago a 20-minute drive from his estate, these private meetings increasingly occur in that orbit.

The flight continues a pattern established after Ellison filed his Florida declaration of domicile in 2023; of 71 trackable flights in 2025, 50 started or ended in the state, according to celebrityprivatejettracker.com. While his G650 regularly links his California tech interests in San Jose and Van Nuys to his Florida base, this move lands him at the geographic center of his business deals and regulatory playbooks.
