Michael Saylor flew from Washington Dulles to Marrakesh on May 15, touching down at Menara Airport after a seven-hour flight aboard his Bombardier Global Express N3877.

The trip comes just days after Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) confirmed on its May 6 earnings call that it is prepared to sell bitcoin to realize tax losses, a maneuver the company first employed in December 2022, as reported by CoinDesk. Saylor’s own tax practices have drawn scrutiny: in June 2024 he settled a $40 million tax fraud suit with Washington, D.C., over allegations he evaded income taxes by claiming Florida residency while actually living in a Georgetown penthouse, per CNBC.

This flight to Marrakesh continues a pattern of globe-trotting aboard N3877. Recent flight data shows the aircraft shuttled between the Bahamas, Miami, and Washington before heading to Morocco, suggesting Saylor remains on the move even as his company’s bitcoin strategy draws new attention.
