Which handlers at NBO can you deliver to?

We deliver to whichever handler or fixed-base operator holds your aircraft at NBO — no prior account or pre-registration needed. Provide the handler name and stand when you send the request, and we coordinate the rest directly with your crew.

Can you handle last-minute or same-day orders at NBO?

Same-day orders at Nairobi are handled regularly, particularly for the charter and safari circuit that runs on short planning cycles. Send your request and we confirm within 10 minutes, then advise the realistic delivery window based on your departure slot at NBO.

How are crew meals handled at Nairobi?

Crew meals for NBO departures are loaded with the main order, packaged separately and labelled by seat or role. We build them for the rotation — balanced, temperature-stable, and priced on operator rather than passenger terms. Note crew headcount and any dietary requirements in your request.

Do you cater halal, kosher, vegetarian and allergy requirements?

Yes — halal, vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options are available on every menu at NBO. Kosher orders require 24 hours' lead time and must be flagged at the time of request. List all requirements and allergens in your initial order; we confirm availability before closing the brief.

How do I place an order for an NBO departure?

Send your request — departure date, pax count, dietary requirements, preferred menu style, and handler details — through the request form or directly to your coordinator. We confirm in under 10 minutes, 24 hours a day. For international departures clearing planeside at HKJK, include your estimated customs window so we can time delivery precisely.

What does catering at NBO cost?

Pricing is per order and depends on menu complexity, passenger count, specialist dietary requirements and lead time. There is no rate card — we send a full quote in under 10 minutes once we have the brief. Crew meals are itemised separately on the invoice.

Inflight Catering · Nairobi

Inflight catering in Nairobi

Nairobi sits at over 5,000 feet on the edge of the Great Rift Valley, which puts some of Africa's most productive growing country within reach of the city's wholesale markets. The Central Highlands to the north — Nyeri, Meru, Kirinyaga — supply fine-grain Arabica, French beans shipped daily to Europe, and heirloom vegetables that reach NBO kitchens while they are still field-cold. That proximity is the baseline for every order we fulfill here. The coast is 400 kilometres away, but Kenyan supply chains move fast: line-caught tuna and mango from the Indian Ocean coast, avocados from Murang'a, passion fruit from the slopes of Mount Kenya. What we plate at NBO reflects what the land actually produces — named, traceable, in season — not a generic 'African-inspired' rotation. Crew orders and full passenger menus are built from the same sourcing logic, scaled to the galley.

Regional Catering Menu · Nairobi

Local sourcing for NBO

Nyama choma — slow-roasted goat or beef, finished over charcoal and served with kachumbari, the tomato and onion relish that cuts the fat — translates well to a board presentation for casual cabin service. Tilapia from Lake Victoria, lightly spiced and wrapped for travel, is a clean cold-main option with unambiguous provenance. For lighter courses we draw on Kenyan salad leaves, cherry tomatoes grown in Thika, and the avocados that define the country's export reputation. Mandazi, the slightly sweet Swahili doughnut, works as a breakfast pastry alongside the high-altitude Arabica that most NBO departures request as a matter of course.
