Elon Musk’s private jet has landed in Florida, where the billionaire will reportedly watch the election results roll in with Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago.

After flying from Austin to Cameron County, Texas — where SpaceX is located and Musk said he voted — earlier this afternoon, Musk’s private jet landed in West Palm Beach, according to the jet-tracking service Jetspy.

The New York Times, citing three sources with knowledge of Musk’s schedule, reported Tuesday that Musk planned to spend election night with Trump, who’s hosting a private dinner for donors at his club. Trump is then expected to attend a larger watch event at the Palm Beach Convention Center.

Representatives for Musk and Trump’s campaigns did not respond to requests for confirmation from Business Insider.

Earlier in the day, Musk appeared to take steps to fly incognito when his private jet began using a federal program that allows private jet owners to cloak their travels with a temporary aircraft registration number.

Musk first signed up for the free “privacy ICAO aircraft address” program, also known as PIA, through the Federal Aviation Administration in 2022. He stopped using the program later that year and briefly used the program again in June 2024.

Jack Sweeney, the college student who gained popularity for tracking Musk’s jets, was the first to point out Musk’s new PIA on Tuesday.

Sweeney told Business Insider that Musk’s jets were easily identifiable because they continued broadcasting their call sign. Jet spotters like Sweeney can often dodge celebrities’ efforts to fly incognito by using context clues, such as social-media posts and airports the planes frequent.

Musk endorsed Trump in July and has since poured more than $130 million into the election to support the former president and the Republican Party, campaign filings show.

Most of that money — nearly $119 million — has gone to Musk’s America PAC, a pro-Trump super PAC that’s spent most of its money on canvassing efforts and digital ads. The PAC had also vowed to give away $1 million each day to a registered voter who signed a petition to support free speech and the right to bear arms.

Musk, who’s been a vocal supporter of Trump on his X platform, turned up on the campaign trail, holding town hall events for the former president and speaking at Trump rallies in Pennsylvania and New York City.

Tesla and SpaceX, companies run by Musk, rely on favorable federal regulations, subsidies, and government contracts. Trump is expected to lower taxes on corporations, and his tax plan would likely favor the wealthy.

Trump has also suggested he would give Musk an advisory role in the administration, putting him in charge of a “department of government efficiency.”
