Larry Ellison lands at Witham Field, returning to his Manalapan estate

Larry Ellison departed Palm Beach International Airport at 2:48pm on May 21, touching down at Witham Field in Martin County 23 minutes later aboard his Gulfstream G650 (N817GS). The short 40-mile flight is a frequent route for the Oracle chairman, who has made a 16-acre, $173 million compound in Manalapan his primary residence since filing a declaration of domicile in May 2023, per [recentlyheard.com](https://recentlyheard.com/larry-ellisons-trump-proximity-play/).

The same week that Ellison is consolidating his Florida footprint—he owns the Eau Palm Beach Resort and Lion Country Safari—he continues to deepen ties with President Donald Trump's circle. Ellison appeared at the White House last year for the Stargate AI announcement and helped broker Oracle's 15% stake in TikTok's U.S. entity. Mar-a-Lago, a 20-minute drive from his Manalapan home, is where many such conversations occur.

Of his 71 trackable flights in 2025, 50 started or ended in Florida, and the Palm Beach–Witham Field shuttle is a recurring pattern: this is his third such hop in four days. The flight is likely a simple commute home after a brief stop at Palm Beach, where Ellison keeps his primary aircraft and conducts business. Quietly, Florida remains his operational center.
