I identify changes in corporate equities and financial ratios to look for a resulting shift in detailed flight activity. For firms that are considered large based on total assets, regression analysis finds a significant association between a change in equities and flight activity to external locations. The finding suggests that the nonpecuniary benefits of corporate jet travel are a contributing factor to agency costs in specific instances related to firm size and trip destination.
