Tyler Perry returns to Cobb County after a Bahamas trip — and a brief local hop

Tyler Perry flew from Cobb County International Airport-McCollum Field to Cobb County International Airport-McCollum Field on June 1, 2026, a flight of just two minutes that reached 1,850 feet and a ground speed of 124.6 knots. The brief hop, in his Embraer E-190 (tail N378TP), is logged as a departure and arrival at the same airport — likely a repositioning or maintenance move after a longer journey.

The same week, Perry's aircraft had traveled from San Juan, Puerto Rico, to Cobb County on June 1, following a May 31 flight from Little Rock, Arkansas, to San Juan. The Arkansas leg originated in Cobb County on May 31, suggesting Perry may have attended an event or meeting in Little Rock before heading to the Caribbean. The Bahamas are a known destination for Perry, who owns property on White Bay Cay in Eleuthera.

Perry, a licensed pilot and the first African-American to outright own a major film studio, bases his operations at Cobb County, near his 856-acre Douglasville estate with its private runway. The two-minute flight is a mundane footnote in a week of longer trips — a reminder that even the busiest schedules include the occasional short repositioning hop.
