Nassef Sawiris's Gulfstream G700 (registration M-YNNS) was tracked flying from Ses Salines (S'Olivó) Airfield in Mallorca to Cairo International Airport on June 27, a 3-hour 16-minute journey arriving at 23:13 local time. The aircraft reached a max altitude of 49,025 feet and a ground speed of 519.8 knots before touching down in Egypt.

If aboard, Nassef Sawiris would arrive in Cairo the same week his formal exit from the United Kingdom continues to reshape his travel patterns. Per [billionaires.africa](https://www.billionaires.africa/2026/04/24/egyptian-billionaire-nassef-sawiris-formally-closes-his-london-family-office-completing-a-uk-exit-triggered-by-the-end-of-the-non-dom-tax-status/), the billionaire closed his London family office in April after relocating his personal residence to Italy and Abu Dhabi, driven by the abolition of the UK's non-domicile tax status. The Mallorca stopover aligns with his new Mediterranean residency pattern.

The aircraft's recent flight history shows a mix of Middle Eastern and European legs, including a June 24 run from Abu Dhabi to Damascus and a June 25 positioning from Damascus to Cairo. With London no longer a recurring destination in recent tracking data, Sawiris's aviation movements now reflect his tax-driven base shift from the UK to Italy and the UAE, as reported by [Bloomberg via billionaires.africa](https://www.billionaires.africa/2026/04/24/egyptian-billionaire-nassef-sawiris-formally-closes-his-london-family-office-completing-a-uk-exit-triggered-by-the-end-of-the-non-dom-tax-status/).
