Spear’s Review

Edward Reid set up Villiers Jet Charter in 2013, with the idea to create a company focused on discreet, exceptional client care and customer service. The boutique brokerage now boasts access to more than 10,000 private aircraft and 40,000 destinations around the world.

Reid says the firm is capable of arranging a personal, business, group, cargo or medical evacuation flight within a couple of hours, sourcing anything from a single-engine propeller plane to a business jet. Villiers also has an extensive list of empty-leg flights to destinations around the world, representing very good value, and accepts payment in Bitcoin.

Given his long and successful career in prime property brokerage, Reid is well acquainted with the needs of Villiers clients: ‘They expect us to know a great deal about them and build a genuine relationship,’ he tells Spear’s.
