Larry Page
Larry Page flew N618PB from Monterey, California, to Provo, Utah, late on May 20, landing just after 8:00 p.m. local time in a one-hour-and-eighteen-minute hop. The short trip follows a week of flights that began with a May 13 run from Chicago to Provo, then to Cabo San Lucas and back to Monterey — a pattern that suggests Page has been winding down his physical presence in California.
The same week, the proposed California wealth tax — a one-time 5% levy on billionaires retroactive to January 1 — remains a live ballot measure for November 2026, according to reporting from Fortune, Fox Business, and The Real Deal. Page moved aggressively to avoid the liability last December, buying two Miami mansions for $173 million, relocating his family office Koop to Delaware, and shifting his flying-car venture One Aero to Florida, all ahead of the Jan. 1 residency cutoff. Provo, where Page has long based his fleet, serves as his de facto home airport; the return there, rather than to his new Miami estates, suggests he is still managing the transition out of California.
The fleet manager Blue City Holdings keeps N618PB and other Gulfstreams tied to Page, Sergey Brin, and Eric Schmidt at Provo Municipal Airport, reinforcing the airport's role as a low-key operational hub for the Google co-founders. Tuesday evening's flight — a simple hop from the Monterey Peninsula back to Utah — reads less like a business meeting and more like a quiet return to familiar ground after a strategically busy few months.
