Donald Trump's private plane was recommissioned as he contemplated a presidential run.
The jet went from Louisiana to Florida on Wednesday.
After being out of storage, the plane was taken to Louisiana for maintenance and a new livery.
The Boeing 757 is back in action.
The plane flew from Louisiana to West Palm Beach, Florida, on Wednesday. That is close to Mar-a-Lago.
After spending two years in New York and a year in Louisiana, the former president's plane is back in Florida.
Trump's 757 became a symbol of his wealth after he bought it from Paul Allen. Trump used the plane until he took office and then switched to Air Force One.
As Trump continues to tease a presidential run, the 757 came back. He said on his website that the plane, which has two bedrooms, a dining room, and 24K gold plated on the seats, was being restored in Louisiana for use at upcoming rallies.
Trump included links to his donation page in an email he sent to his political action committee in March.
The construction of the plane has been a secret and I can't wait to show it to the world.
Trump told The Hill that the story that he was raising money to replace his 757 was not true.
He told the outlet that the jet is owned by him and financed by him with no debt.
In July of this year, Trump posted a video on social media of his original 757 aircraft.
He said in the post that the jet was completely renovated and had a new paint job with an American flag on the tail.
The president of Landlocked Aviation said it took about a month to paint the plane.
The new look of Trump's private jet was put to use over the weekend when it flew to Texas.
