Larry Ellison departed Palm Beach International Airport at 2:22 p.m. local time on June 1, 2026, in his Gulfstream G650, N817GS, and landed nine hours and ten minutes later at Lanai Airport. The 4,730-mile flight comes after a string of short Florida hops and a May 20 trip to Van Nuys, California — suggesting a deliberate return to his private island.

The same week, Oracle Corporation holds its annual shareholder meeting on June 3, per a company SEC filing dated May 15. Investors are expected to vote on executive compensation tied to AI infrastructure spending, as well as the integration of Paramount Skydance, which Ellison now controls through a roughly 50% stake. Ellison owns about 98 percent of Lanai, per public records, and maintains a residence there alongside his $173 million Manalapan estate.

Though Ellison’s 2025 flight log shows no prior Hawaii departures — fifty of seventy-one trackable flights began or ended in Florida — this trip restores a known pattern: retreating to Lanai during periods of corporate governance scrutiny. The island, assessed at over $1.2 billion, offers Ellison both privacy and proximity to Pacific time-zone business hours.
