Travis Kalanick flies to Belém as CloudKitchens eyes Brazil expansion

Travis Kalanick flew from Fazenda Bom Gosto Airport in rural Brazil to Val de Cans/Júlio Cezar Ribeiro International Airport in Belém on June 3, 2026, a 31-minute hop aboard his Gulfstream G650ER, N10100. The aircraft, registered to his 10100 Fund, touched down at 20:43 local time after a brief climb to 37,000 feet.

The same week, CloudKitchens—Kalanick's ghost-kitchen venture valued at $15 billion in 2021—has been scouting new locations in northern Brazil, per local business reports. Belém, a logistics hub near the mouth of the Amazon, is a candidate for the company's expansion into emerging markets, where it already operates across 110 cities in 30 countries. Kalanick's travel pattern over the prior week, which included stops near Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, suggests a broader Latin American tour.

The flight follows Kalanick's confirmed relocation to Austin in December 2025, timed to avoid California's proposed wealth tax. His recent movements—hopping from Los Angeles to San Francisco in May, then south to Brazil—track with CloudKitchens' international push and his personal investment strategy, which has shifted focus to high-growth regions outside the United States.
