Larry Page flew from Los Cabos International Airport to Tucson International Airport on May 17, a 75-minute hop in his Gulfstream G650ER. The flight follows a multi-day stay in Baja California Sur, with the jet having arrived in Cabo on May 14 from Provo, Utah — Page’s home base.

There is no major conference, concert, or court date in Tucson this week that explains the trip. Instead, the movement fits a pattern of shuttling between western U.S. airports as Page executes a carefully timed tax-avoidance strategy. As Fortune and Business Insider reported in January, Page bought two Miami waterfront estates for a combined $173.4 million in late December and early January, moved his family office Koop to Delaware, and shifted business entities to Florida — all before a proposed California ballot measure would have imposed a one-time 5% tax on billionaires retroactive to January 1.

Page’s recent flight history shows frequent shuttling between Provo and Phoenix-area airports, with occasional trips to Los Angeles and Chicago. The Cabo-to-Tucson leg likely reflects a repositioning after a personal stay in Mexico, not a newsworthy event in southern Arizona. For a man worth an estimated $269 billion who has told associates he has already left California, per the San Francisco Chronicle, even a quiet flight to Tucson is another data point in a carefully managed exit from the Golden State.
