MGM Resorts lands in Macau two days before key annual general meeting

MGM Resorts flew one of its Embraer Legacy 500 jets from Narita International Airport in Tokyo to Macau International Airport on May 12, covering the 4-hour, 25-minute hop at altitudes up to 38,025 feet. The tail number N783MM touched down at 11:36 a.m. local time, ferrying what are likely high-level executives across the East China Sea.

The timing aligns neatly with MGM China's annual general meeting scheduled for May 14 at the MGM Cotai resort, where shareholders will vote on dividends, board mandates, and share issuance authority, as reported by The Globe and Mail on March 31. Macau remains a cornerstone of MGM Resorts' international portfolio, with MGM Macau and MGM Cotai driving significant revenue amid the region's gaming rebound.

This Asia-bound jaunt fits MGM Resorts' pattern of shuttling leaders between Las Vegas headquarters and overseas outposts. Recent flights traced a circuitous route: from Las Vegas to Anchorage on May 11, onward to near Tokyo that evening, and a short hop within Japan before heading to Macau—perhaps scouting opportunities or wrapping regional business before the AGM demands attention.
