Tyler Perry flew from Barcelona’s Josep Tarradellas El Prat Airport to Clearview Airpark near Atlanta on May 16, 2026, a 7-hour-59-minute return leg aboard his Embraer E-190 (tail N378TP). The flight capped a multi-day swing through southern France and Spain.

Perry’s itinerary aligns with the 2026 Cannes Film Festival, which wrapped days earlier on the French Riviera. The filmmaker, known for his own studio and a steady output of features and television, likely attended the festival for negotiations, premieres, or networking—routine business for a Hollywood producer of his stature. Perry maintains a busy travel schedule, with his jet logging over 150,000 miles across 121 flights in recent tracking data.

The trip also echoes a pattern: Perry frequently uses his aircraft to shuttle between his Atlanta base and international entertainment hubs. While he has not publicly commented on this week’s travel, the flight history points squarely to a work trip bookended by the Cannes calendar.
