Sources said Hizzoner would be meeting Trump at the White House in the afternoon.
Mamdani, wearing a black hat and mask, was spotted with his entourage Thursday morning riding in the back of a Delta plane.
He was joined by a top adviser, Morris Katz, who has no formal role in City Hall.
City Hall made no mention that the mayor was leaving the Big Apple, with nothing on his public schedule for the day.
The mayor’s reps didn’t comment.
Trump on Tuesday night gave the Democratic socialist a shoutout during the State of the Union.
“The new communist mayor of New York City, I think he’s a nice guy, actually” Trump said in the middle of his nearly two-hour speech at the U.S. Capitol. “I speak to him a lot. Bad policy, but nice guy.”
