With over a decade of experience across luxury travel and entertainment, David Haas designs travel for clients who expect a high level of discretion, access, and white-glove execution in how they move through the world.

His work is centered around understanding how his clients operate — often across multiple destinations, with shifting priorities and little margin for friction — and building travel that keeps pace with that reality. Every detail is considered in advance, allowing the experience to unfold seamlessly.

Over time, David has developed a reputation for managing complex, high-touch travel with a calm, controlled approach. Whether coordinating a single stay or a multi-destination program, his focus remains the same — anticipating needs, navigating nuance, and ensuring each element is handled with care and precision.

His work ranges from securing access that isn’t publicly available — private villas, off-market experiences, and high-profile events — to overseeing travel that requires discretion and coordination at every stage. The details are layered, but the experience always feels effortless.

Based in Manhattan, David works with a global client base and speaks both Mandarin Chinese and Spanish, allowing him to operate comfortably across cultures and markets.

Always in my carry-on luggage:

My laptop and chargers; camera and lenses; AirPods; a good book; and a pair of slippers to wear in-flight.

Most underrated destinations:

Costa Brava, Spain – understated, authentic, and effortlessly beautiful along the Mediterranean coast.

On my bucket list:

There are still countless places calling me. Rwanda, Mongolia, Antarctica, Bhutan, Namibia, the Maldives, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Kazakhstan, Galapagos… and many more ahead. I’ve always been drawn to destinations that feel vast, ancient, and closely tied to the natural world.

What matters most to me isn’t how many places I visit, but maintaining a lifelong devotion to exploration—seeking out culture, human connection, and the perspective that only travel can offer. Again and again, I’m reminded that the distances we imagine between one another are often far smaller than they seem.

my most memorable travel experience:

Eighteen years after spending my senior year of high school studying abroad in Chile, I returned to the country, visiting Patagonia to experience Torres del Paine, one of the most stunning, remote places on earth. By complete coincidence, I was paired in a small hiking group with a couple from the same city where I had once lived.

Only after we reached the trailhead did the connection begin to unfold. When I learned they were from Curicó, I shared that I had lived there years earlier with a host family and attended school with their children. As we kept talking, school names, ages, and memories slowly aligned until the realization set in. They were the very host parents I had lived with as a teenager, and we had somehow found one another again nearly half a lifetime later.

We spent the next eight hours hiking toward the French Camp together, followed by several days sharing dinners, catching up, and visiting them again at their next hotel. By chance, we even found ourselves on the same flight back to Santiago, seated one row apart. We remain close today, and it stands as one of the most meaningful reunions of my life—made possible only through travel.
