Travis Kalanick flies to Brussels as CloudKitchens eyes European expansion

Travis Kalanick flew from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport to Brussels Airport on June 8, 2026, a 4-hour 36-minute hop aboard his Gulfstream G650ER, N10100. The aircraft, registered to his 10100 Fund, touched down at 02:25 UTC after climbing to 40,025 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, but Brussels sits at the heart of Europe, where the company already operates across 110 cities in 30 countries. The trip aligns with CloudKitchens' international push, as Kalanick recently exited stealth mode to discuss automating the physical world, per a podcast transcript from the All-In Podcast. Brussels, a logistics hub near the mouth of the Scheldt, is a candidate for the company's expansion into emerging markets, where it already operates across 110 cities in 30 countries.

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.
