President Donald Trump is planning to return to his Mar-a-Lago Club this coming weekend, according to White House press secretary Sean Spicer.

Spicer, who reported the president's plans at Monday's White House press briefing, did not say how long the president would stay in Palm Beach. However, according to a new advisory issued Monday morning by the Federal Aviation Administration, Trump will be there Friday through Sunday.

It will be Trump’s fifth weekend in Palm Beach since taking office.

The FAA advisories, which serve as an early warning to pilots that temporary flight restrictions are forthcoming for “VIP movement,” have become the first sign Trump is planning a trip to his part-time Palm Beach home.

Also Monday morning: Axios reported that Trump plans to host Chinese President Xi Jinping at Mar-a-Lago for two days in April.
