Nassef Sawiris's Gulfstream G700 returns to Cairo after Mykonos stop during OCI takeover bid

Nassef Sawiris's Gulfstream G700 (tail M-USIK) was tracked departing Mykonos Island National Airport at 17:35 UTC on June 30, 2026, and landing at Cairo International Airport 81 minutes later, per flight data. The aircraft had spent several days shuttling between the Greek island, Paris, and other European destinations before heading back to Egypt.

If Nassef Sawiris was aboard, the flight would bring him home the same week he launched an unsolicited all-cash offer to take OCI Global private at EUR 4.10 per share, as reported by billionaires.africa [billionaires.africa](https://www.billionaires.africa/2026/06/26/egyptian-billionaire-nassef-sawiris-makes-unsolicited-bid-to-take-chemical-giant-oci-global-private-at-eur-4-10-per-share/). The bid aims to resolve a months-long governance deadlock over OCI's proposed combination with Orascon Construction, with minority shareholders pushing for a cash exit.

The brief Mykonos stop fits Sawiris's pattern of mixing Mediterranean leisure with business travel — he also owns Aston Villa FC and manages a global investment portfolio. With the OCI offer memorandum now submitted to Dutch regulators, the return to Cairo may signal preparations for the next phase of the take-private process.
