Michael Jordan flew from Genoa, Italy, to Appleton, Wisconsin, on June 4, 2026, aboard his Gulfstream G650ER, tail number N236MJ. The 8-hour-32-minute flight arrived at Appleton International Airport in the evening, a destination not among his typical recurring stops.

The trip comes the same week Jordan was in southern Spain for the LIV Golf Andalucía tournament at Valderrama Golf Club in Sotogrande, as reported by The Olive Press. He landed his custom jet in Málaga on June 2, ahead of the event featuring Spanish stars Jon Rahm and Sergio García. The Appleton arrival suggests a return to the United States after the golf outing, possibly for business or personal reasons.

Jordan, who co-owns 23XI Racing and won the 2026 Daytona 500, frequently uses his Gulfstream for cross-country and transatlantic travel. The G650ER’s 7,500-nautical-mile range allows nonstop journeys like this one, connecting European events to U.S. destinations without refueling stops.
