Marc Benioff lands in Dallas the week Salesforce employees push back on ICE business

Marc Benioff flew from Shreveport to Dallas Love Field on May 12, a 38-minute hop in his Gulfstream G650 (N650HA) that touched down just after 2 p.m. local time. The brief flight follows a multi-day swing through Nashville and Oklahoma City, according to the aircraft's recent track.

The same week, more than 1,400 Salesforce employees signed an internal letter calling on Benioff to cancel all active pitches to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, per a CNBC report published February 10. The letter cites concerns that Salesforce may be helping ICE recruit 10,000 new agents and vet tip-line reports. It follows a separate incident in which Benioff reportedly joked about ICE agents monitoring international employees at a company event in Las Vegas, sparking backlash on internal Slack channels, as covered by KRON4 and Wired.

Benioff has drawn scrutiny before for his private-jet use — flight-tracking databases label him a 'climate-change hypocrite' for advocating environmental action while operating a heavily tracked G650. In 2025, he suggested President Trump send the National Guard to San Francisco, a remark he later walked back. Dallas is not a known residence or recurring destination for Benioff, but the city is home to a major Salesforce office.
