Or they could choose to fly commercial like a destitute multimillionaire. The only reason this information is public is that they literally own the jet and the locations of aircraft in public airspace is required to be broadcast for obvious reasons.

Flying commercial wouldn't gain Musk any anonymity. The second he sets foot in a public airport social media of all forms would be flooded with photos of him, what gate he's waiting at, etc. And that's MUCH worse for Musk because everyone and their uncle can see what gate the flight he boarded is going to disembark at, meaning a crowd of people with less-than-kind intentions would have time to gather there in advance of his arrival.

LAX, JFK, and several other large airports have a private entrance for the rich and famous for this reason. Rich people fly commercial, too.

Or just rent a jet for secret shit and send ElonJet on a wild goose chase. It’s literally in the thousands to tens of thousands.

I'll do you one better, billionaires should not allowed to exist.
