Lemann Family flies to Sardinia as Mediterranean yachting season begins

Lemann Family flew from Paris-Le Bourget to a point off the coast of Sardinia on June 21, a 1-hour-37-minute hop in their Gulfstream G650ER (PS-FGT). The aircraft descended to a coordinate just east of Villasimius, a stretch of Mediterranean water more commonly visited by superyachts than by fixed-wing aircraft.

The destination is almost certainly the explorer yacht Anawa, which per Superyacht Fan is owned by Jorge Paulo Lemann and equipped with a helipad and helicopter hangar. Sardinia in late June is a seasonal hub for the superyacht crowd, and the flight suggests Lemann is joining the vessel for a summer cruise after a period of heavy transatlantic travel.

The trip follows a busy week: on June 14, Lemann flew from Rio de Janeiro to Paris, then made two short hops to Brussels and back on June 14 and 18. The shift from investment meetings in Brazil and Europe to a leisure destination off Sardinia fits the pattern of a billionaire who, as Forbes notes, resides primarily in Zurich but keeps a yacht in the Mediterranean for summer escapes.
