Poonawalla Family's Bombardier Global 6000 (VT-CDP) was tracked flying from Amravati (VAAM) to Pune (VAPO) on July 1, 2026, a short 47-minute hop that brought the aircraft back to its home base. The flight followed a busy week of international movements, including a nonstop from London to Pune on June 23 and subsequent trips to London again on June 27 and 29, per flight data.

If the Poonawalla family was aboard, the timing would suggest a return to Pune after a period of global obligations. The London stops align with Adar Poonawalla's acquisition of a 25,000-square-foot Mayfair mansion, the most expensive London home purchase of 2023, as reported by Brutimes, and the family's ongoing use of Aberconway House as a corporate guesthouse. The Singapore leg, meanwhile, comes as Serum Institute continues distributing COVID-19 vaccines across Asia, a region where the company has deep supply partnerships.

The brief Amravati hop is consistent with a positioning flight or a short visit to the region, possibly related to Serum Institute's operations or family business. The aircraft's pattern of shuttling between Pune and London, as noted by Celebplanes, matches the family's established travel rhythms — Pune being home to their 247-acre estate and Serum Institute's headquarters, London for business and family, and Singapore as a regional hub. The return to Pune on July 1 suggests the aircraft is now parked at its home base for the week.
