Journey Beyond the Ordinary

I am Daniel Benjamin Davis, the Phoenix based founder of Tide and Tailwinds.

I believe every great journey begins with a perfect flight plan, so I bring a pilot’s precision to the world of high altitude luxury.

My mission is to craft tailored escapes for pilots and global explorers through grounded personal service. Welcome to a travel experience where your next great adventure is expertly charted.

I believe the best travel stories are written in the details. Often, those details include my partner Dean and our well-traveled pug, Bash. Living in the heart of the Sonoran Desert has given me an appreciation for wide-open spaces, but my heart is frequently in the clouds or exploring the vibrant flavors of a Parisian bistro.

I founded Tide and Tailwinds to help travelers move beyond the guidebook. My approach to luxury is personal: it’s about finding the authentic, the "lived-in," and the extraordinary. Whether you're looking for an aviation-centric expedition or a slow-paced culinary escape, I’m here to make sure your next departure is your best one yet.
