He’s leavin’ on a jet plane, don’t know if swagger will be back again…

Eric Adams has spent his final weeks as New York City’s mayor flying around the world on the taxpayers’ dime — as he admits he’s hunting for a jet-setting new gig with first-class benefits.

Speculation over his future job prospects comes as Hizzoner bolted to Uzbekistan in Central Asia on Tuesday, after wrapping up a high-profile, five-day jaunt in Israel.

Mayor Adams has spent much of the past month traveling outside of New York City.

Sources said Adams is leaning toward a job offer with an Israeli-owned international construction company, but still has potential ambassadorships with President Trump’s administration in the pipeline, with one to the Republic of the Congo recently being floated.

“Countries are calling me and asking me to come and do what I did in New York City,” he told reporters on Election Day.

Adams, who has roughly six weeks left in office, has noticeably been more frequently absent from the city since he finally dropped his longshot re-election bid on Sept. 28.

Within days of that fateful decision, Adams traveled to Albania — a Balkan nation where his raunchy rapper son Jordan Coleman famously competed in an “American Idol” knockoff.

He then traveled to Washington, DC, on Nov. 6 for a business roundtable — and prelude to his upcoming trip this week — with Uzbek President Shavkat Miriziyoyev.

Adams then flew to Israel Friday, his second visit to the country since taking office in 2022.

He took veiled swipes at Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani during the jaunt, which Adams’ office said was meant to highlight the threat of growing antisemitism and his administration’s commitment to protecting Jewish New Yorkers.

Adams met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday, and on Tuesday, visited a kibbutz attacked by Hamas on Oct. 7., 2023 and then the offices of a cybersecurity company, Armis, and a weather technology firm, Tomorrow.io.

The mayor’s fondness for flying off to faraway places has been a frequent feature and punchline of his public life, notably his lavish, perk-filled Turkish Airlines trips while serving as Brooklyn borough president that led to his since-dropped historic federal bribery indictment.

His first-and-only term saw him travel to Mexico, Ecuador and Colombia on a voyage to visit the dangerous Darién Gap at the height of the migrant crisis in 2023. He also visited Greece and Qatar.

Those conspicuous overseas trips stopped after Adams’ corruption case cast a shadow over his globetrotting and, ultimately, dealt a fatal blow his chances of becoming a two-term mayor.

The dismissal of Adams’ case arguably killed his re-election chances, but he pressed with his campaign for months — even as many pols, Trump included, worried it would help socialist mayoral contender Mamdani’s chances of winning.

Adams ultimately faced an extraordinary pressure campaign to stand aside and give former Gov. Andrew Cuomo a fighting chance of thwarting Mamdani.

The arm-twisting extended to the White House, where officials had floated a plum ambassadorship — such as to Saudi Arabia — to entice him from the race.

Adams even met with Trump’s special envoy to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, during an undisclosed trip to Florida in early September.

The ambassadorship talks, however, seemed to fizzle out as Adams couldn’t get face time with Trump — even when the president was in Yankee Stadium on Sept. 11.

But sources said an ambassadorship still isn’t completely off the table for Adams as he’s in contention for the Congo post.

Adams administration officials adamantly refused to release the costs of the mayor’s many trips.

But his predecessor Bill de Blasio’s misadventures can provide some idea about how costly it can be for a Big Apple mayor to travel with a security team and entourage in tow.

De Blaz’s ill-fated vanity presidential bid in 2020 ended up costing $320,000, records show.

The Uzbekistan flight Tuesday coincided with Adams’ former aide Mohamed Bahi, 41, dodging prison time for allegedly telling a Uzbek businessman in Brooklyn to lie about illegal straw donations to the mayor’s 2021 campaign.

Judge Dale Ho — the same jurist who had presided over Adams’ corruption case before President Trump’s administration controversially dropped it — called the mayor “the elephant in the room” during Bahi’s sentencing.

“Mr. Bahi is placed in the pyramid and there’s a notable absence of the apex of that pyramid,” Ho said.

City Hall officials confirmed that Adams’ trip to Uzbekistan didn’t include a layover in Istanbul.
