Hakar Torres

Founder and Chief Advisory Officer

Hakar Torres is a travel expert, speaker, and the founder of Glades Air, an executive travel concierge firm dedicated to delivering unforgettable travel experiences with excellence. With over ten years of trusted travel expertise, Hakar built Glades Air to solve a problem he witnessed firsthand: corporations and high-net-worth families were spending significant capital on travel without a single, senior advisor acting in their interest alone.

Based in Central Florida and connected globally, Hakar leads the Glades Air advisory team with a philosophy rooted in human connection, operational discipline, and an unwavering commitment to the client experience. He is known in the industry for his ability to simplify complex travel logistics for busy executives, families, and organizations, removing friction at every stage of the journey.

Hakar is a recognized voice in the travel and leadership community, speaking regularly on topics including executive travel strategy, human potential, and the future of high-touch concierge service in an increasingly automated world.

Our Foundation

The Glades Air Standard

Glades Air was founded on a simple observation: corporate and private travel logistics had grown exponentially more complex, yet the advisory experience had not kept pace. Organizations were deploying significant travel budgets with no centralized intelligence. Executives and families were absorbing hours of logistics coordination that should have been entirely invisible. We built a different model, one that places the client at the center of every decision. We may earn supplier commissions, and they never change what we recommend. We act as trusted advisors and operational partners, building travel architectures that anticipate needs before they arise and resolve disruptions before they reach our clients.

Absolute Discretion

Your travel profile, preferences and itineraries are confidential, and we protect them without exception.

Responsive

Your concierge replies the same business day, weekdays 8 AM to 6 PM ET (next business day after hours), and you always reach a person who knows your file.

Global Intelligence

Personal relationships with operators, hoteliers and ground handlers. Your concierge carries local knowledge everywhere you travel.

Senior-Led Advisory

Every itinerary is planned with you by your concierge. No call centers. No outsourcing.

Single Point of Contact

One advisor owns your entire engagement from discovery through return. You never repeat yourself, and no detail falls between handoffs.

Your Interests First

We may earn supplier commissions, and they never change what we recommend.

Tell us where you are going.

We reply the same business day, weekdays 8 AM to 6 PM ET, and the next business day for messages after hours.
