Len Blavatnik's Gulfstream lands in Seattle amid World Cup private jet surge

Len Blavatnik's Gulfstream G650, tail number N761LE, was tracked departing Greater Cumberland Regional Airport at 9:12 PM Eastern on June 26th and arriving at King County International Airport (Boeing Field) in Seattle at 1:40 AM Pacific on June 27th, a flight of four hours and 27 minutes.

If Len Blavatnik was aboard, the timing would suggest a trip connected to the FIFA World Cup, which is currently underway in Seattle.
