Vinod Khosla
Vinod Khosla flew from Camarillo to Hayward Executive Airport on May 29, 2026, a 50-minute hop aboard his Gulfstream V (N85NV). The flight arrived just before 5 a.m. local time, after a brief overnight stay at KCMA. Hayward serves as a low-fuss alternative to San Francisco International, about 25 miles south of Khosla's Portola Valley home.
The same week, there are no headline conferences, hearings, or sporting events in Hayward or nearby Oakland. However, per the previous day's flight log, Khosla had flown from Hayward to Camarillo on May 28 — a pattern of short-haul shuttles along the California coast. This return leg looks like a standard trip home after an overnight at the Camarillo-area airport, which is near his Martins Beach property and a frequent hub for that coastal corridor.
Khosla has been splitting time between the Bay Area and points south for years. His recent flights show a consistent loop: San Jose/Hayward ↔ Augusta ↔ New York ↔ Camarillo. This dawn arrival at KHWD is simply the last link in a short round trip — a tech billionaire's errand on the other side of the Santa Monica Mountains, tucked into a Wednesday night.
