Shell flew from Rotterdam The Hague Airport to London City Airport on June 10, 2026, a 44-minute hop in a Dassault Falcon 7X registered as VQ-BXH. The flight arrived at 6:48 UTC, a short hop from the company's Dutch operations to the UK capital.

The same week, Shell holds its Annual General Meeting on May 19, 2026, at the Sofitel London Heathrow Hotel, per the company's notice of meeting filed with the SEC. A key item on the agenda is Resolution 23, filed by Dutch campaign group Follow This and co-filed by 21 major institutional investors, which asks Shell to disclose how it would create shareholder value under scenarios of declining oil and gas demand, as reported by Net Zero Investor. The resolution failed to pass, with Shell's board recommending a vote against it, but the trip underscores the company's focus on investor relations and governance during a period of strategic tension.

Shell's corporate aviation arm, Shell Aircraft International, operates a fleet of heavy Dassault Falcons from Cayman Islands registration. Recent flights show the aircraft shuttling between Rotterdam and London multiple times in early June, as well as a long-haul trip to Windhoek, Namibia, on June 8, reflecting the company's global reach in energy operations and regulatory engagements.
