Michael Jordan flew from Lynden Pindling International Airport in Nassau to Palm Beach International Airport on May 26, 2026, a 34-minute hop in his Gulfstream G650ER, N236MJ. The custom-painted jet, inspired by the Air Jordan 3’s elephant print, touched down at KPBI at 2:26 p.m. local time.

The flight marks a return to his primary residence in Jupiter, Florida, after what appears to be a short trip to the Bahamas. Jordan’s home base is the exclusive Bear’s Club, and his yacht *Mr. Terrible* is often docked in the area. While no major public event coincides with this arrival, Jordan’s travel patterns frequently include quick getaways to nearby islands between business commitments.

Jordan’s recent flights show a flurry of activity around Palm Beach, including trips to Texas and the Bahamas earlier in May. His Gulfstream G650ER, delivered in 2024, has become a familiar sight at airports near NASCAR tracks and his Charlotte-based 23XI Racing team, which won the 2026 Daytona 500 ([simpleflying.com](https://simpleflying.com/michael-jordan-gulfstream-g650er-private-jet/)).
