Flight records show Michael Bloomberg's private jets took more than 1,700 trips and emitted at least 10,000 metric tons of CO2 in the past four years

, Michael Barbaro, about a series of events that suggested Bloomberg had been on the island when a severe snowstorm struck New York City on Christmas Day in 2010. a tranche of similar tranche of flight data, then maintained by the Federal Aviation Administration, for the years 2007 to 2010. In those four years, Bloomberg's jets took 981 flights that departed from airports in or near New York City.

The eight aircraft comprise three Dassault Falcon 900EX business jets, a smaller Pilatus PC-24 business jet, a Beechcraft King Air utility aircraft, a Cessna 182 Skylane plane, and two helicopters. After mapping the signal data associated with each aircraft, Business Insider found the vast majority of travel occurred on the three Dassault Falcons, the largest of Bloomberg's jets.

Shortly after Bloomberg announced his candidacy for president on November 24, 2019, the jet began to tour the country, making stops in Mississippi, Georgia, Colorado, Texas, and North Carolina, returning to New York every few days. Often, the jet would make multiple campaign stops in one day. In mid-February, both N47EG and N5MV flew concurrently between campaign rallies in Nashville, Winston-Salem, and Houston.

Between 8 p.m. on March 22, when the order took effect, and June 11, Business Insider found that Bloomberg's jets flew 33 times domestically, including five trips to Palm Beach, the most frequented destination. The number is a 73% decrease from the same period last year, when Bloomberg's Falcons made 124 flights collectively.

The majority of flights taken by Bloomberg's Falcon jets fell into predictable patterns. Most frequent were flights made between New York City and Palm Beach, followed by New York City and London — all locations in which Bloomberg owns homes. Other domestic destinations visited often by Bloomberg's jets were Washington, DC, Dallas, Little Rock, Monterey, and Vail, where Bloomberg owns a vacation property.
