Boeing’s execs refuse to relocate, instead taking private jets to work: report

The top dogs of Boeing are living the high life — refusing to relocate their residences despite the aerospace giant’s push for staffers to return to the office — and instead commuting via private jet to the company’s headquarters, according to a report.

David Calhoun took over as Boeing’s CEO just before the pandemic, in January 2020.

Like most of the US workforce, he worked from home at the time between his two abodes: a sprawling waterfront estate on New Hampshire’s Lake Sunapee, and another in a gated resort community in Buffalo, SC, according to the Wall Street Journal.

Flight records reviewed by the Journal showed that Calhoun has taken more than 400 trips using Boeing’s fleet of private jets. However, not all of the trips have taken him to Arlington, Va., where Boeing moved its corporate headquarters from Chicago last May.

Records showed that Calhoun used the company’s private planes to jump around the US, making stops in California, Texas and multiple places on Florida’s coasts, the Journal found.

Other flights headed toward Berlin, Dublin and Turks and Caicos, according to the outlet.
