Experienced Travel Management, Corporate Travel Planning & Personalized Travel Services
Successful travel management requires more than making reservations. It requires planning, organization, attention to detail, supplier coordination, problem-solving, and personal accountability throughout the entire travel experience.
Jet Set Society combines professional travel expertise with an extensive background in leadership and operations to provide individuals, families, groups, and businesses with carefully managed travel experiences.
Our goal is to save clients time, help prevent costly mistakes, and deliver seamless travel experiences that are supported by a real travel professional.
Professional Travel Management Experience
Jet Set Society was built around a client-first approach to travel planning. After recognizing the limitations of online booking platforms—including booking errors, limited personalization, and inadequate customer service—Dave Thompson transitioned his experience in leadership and operations into professional travel advising. Today, that experience supports the planning and management of leisure travel, corporate incentive travel, group travel, cruises, all-inclusive resorts, and more complex travel arrangements.

Leadership, Operations & Previous Professional Experience
The ability to successfully manage complex travel is strengthened by Dave Thompson’s extensive professional background in leadership, operations, customer service, team management, and business growth. Before launching Jet Set Society, Dave spent nine years as a Director at Santander Bank, where he led multiple locations and was responsible for human resources and growth strategy.
That experience provides a strong operational foundation for managing the many moving parts involved in professional travel planning.

This combination of business management and professional travel expertise is especially valuable when coordinating corporate travel, incentive programs, group vacations, and other travel arrangements where multiple travelers, reservations, schedules, and suppliers must work together.
Proven Experience Managing Complex & Group Travel
Group and corporate travel require a higher level of coordination than an individual reservation. Flights, accommodations, transfers, activities, schedules, payments, and individual traveler requirements must all be integrated into a complete travel plan.
Jet Set Society has experience developing and managing travel programs that bring these individual components together while providing travelers with a knowledgeable point of contact throughout the process. Our experience includes large cruise groups, corporate incentive travel, leisure groups, and customized travel experiences.

Our Values & Commitment to Every Traveler
Our approach to travel management is built around accuracy, accountability, transparency, personal service, and long-term relationships. We believe professional travel planning should provide clients with more than a reservation—it should provide confidence that someone knowledgeable is overseeing their complete travel experience.
- Accuracy: Every booking receives careful attention to dates, reservations, connections, accommodations, and important travel details.
- Accountability: We take responsibility for professionally managing the travel arrangements entrusted to us.
- Transparency: Clients receive clear information regarding pricing, expectations, recommendations, and the planning process.
- Personal Service: We provide real human assistance rather than leaving travelers dependent solely on automated booking systems or call centers.
- Detailed Planning: We do not believe in cutting corners when doing so could compromise a client’s experience or create unnecessary financial risk.
- Long-Term Relationships: Our focus is on developing lasting client relationships rather than treating travel as a one-time transaction.
- Complete Travel Support: Our hands-on, white-glove approach continues from initial planning through the client’s return home.
- Professional Expertise: We believe complex travel—especially corporate and group travel—benefits from experienced coordination rather than guesswork.
