Mark Zuckerberg flies to Monterey the same week the G700 delivery trip is logged

Mark Zuckerberg flew from Reid-Hillview Airport of Santa Clara County to Monterey Regional Airport on May 26, 2026, a 26-minute hop aboard his Gulfstream G700, tail number N3880. The aircraft reached a max altitude of 7,050 feet and a max ground speed of 296 knots.

The same week, N3880 completed a multi-day trip: Orlando to San Jose on May 21, preceded by a short repositioning flight from Salinas, per Celebplanes flight logs. The G700—delivered in December 2024 for about $80 million, registered to A7P Trust Co Inc and operated by Solairus Aviation—has been Zuckerberg's second jet since early 2025, as reported by Simple Flying. The Monterey runway is a recurring stop for Zuckerberg, who owns a $59 million estate at Lake Tahoe and frequently shuttles between California airports.

This quick hop fits a pattern: N3880 flew Monterey to Moffett on May 10 before a round trip to Lihue, Hawaii, and back. On May 5, both jets operated simultaneously—N68885 Westchester to Moffett, N3880 Columbus via a seaplane base. The short leg to Monterey could signal a weekend retreat or a meeting at a coastal property; no public event in Monterey this week explains the landing, but the flight continues the rhythm of a CEO balancing Hawaii, the mainland, and California.
