That's some ridiculous micro management of a CEO. Didn't expect to see that in a contract for someone at that level.

It seems more like he isn't an exception to the hybrid work policy that applies to everyone else. Although it notes "when not traveling for work", so chances are he'll be flying all over the place anyway for unnecessary meetings and schmoozing sessions. Or whatever else a CEO can't do remotely

Also what are the odds they're gonna be paying for all the flights.

100%, that's basically the entire point of a company jet.
