Which handler or FBO should I specify when placing my order?

TUD does not currently have a named FBO partner on our roster, so we coordinate directly with whichever handling agent is managing your aircraft. Simply provide the handler's contact details when you place your order and we take care of the rest.

Can you accommodate Kosher meals at this airport?

Yes. Kosher meals arrive sealed and certified from an approved source. A minimum of 24 hours' notice is required to ensure the supply chain is intact and the certification documentation travels with the order.

Is fresh local produce genuinely available this far inland?

It is, though the range differs from coastal Senegal. The Tambacounda region produces tamarind, moringa, fonio, millet, and Gambia River basin fish, among other ingredients. We source what is genuinely seasonal and available rather than importing coastal produce at the expense of freshness.

Can you cater flights positioning onward to Kédougou or Kaolack?

Yes. We service aircraft across the sub-region and can prepare catering uplifted at TUD for flights continuing to other Senegalese destinations. Advise us of your routing and we will structure quantities and packaging accordingly.

Do you provide crew meals separately from passenger catering?

Crew meals are a standard part of every order. They are packed, labelled, and delivered separately from passenger service items so there is no confusion during boarding or flight preparation.

What is the lead time for a standard inflight catering order at Tambacounda?

For most orders, 12 hours' notice allows us to source, prepare, and deliver comfortably. Shorter lead times are handled on a best-efforts basis — contact us immediately and we will tell you precisely what is achievable given the current situation on the ground.

Inflight catering menu for Tambacounda

A short, working selection — not the full carte. This is what the kitchen boards most often for a Tambacounda departure: classics that travel, plated for cabin altitude, sourced the same morning.

The Altitude Dining kitchenSenegal

To start

Fonio tabbouleh with moringa and preserved lemon

Fonio grain — lighter than couscous and native to the eastern Sahel — replaces bulgur in this herb-forward preparation. Moringa leaves add a clean, slightly peppery note; preserved lemon ties the dressing together without overpowering the grain's delicate texture.

Hot main

Tamarind-glazed chicken breast with roasted millet cake

Free-range chicken glazed with a reduction of locally harvested tamarind, served alongside a pressed millet cake finished with a little baobab-leaf butter. Portioned and sealed for consistent reheating at cabin altitude.

Cold main

Gambia River tilapia fillet, cold, with cucumber and green herb oil

Freshwater tilapia, poached gently and chilled, presented with thinly sliced cucumber and an oil infused with coriander and wild parsley. Clean and restrained — a practical cold main for a midday departure.

Morning

Millet porridge with fresh mango and roasted groundnuts

A composed morning bowl drawing on the region's staple grain, loosened to a smooth consistency and topped with ripe mango slices and a spoonful of lightly salted roasted groundnuts for texture and protein.

Pâtisserie

Tamarind and date tart with sesame praline

A short-pastry shell filled with a tamarind-and-date cream — sharper and less sweet than a conventional fruit tart — finished with a thin layer of sesame praline that sets firm for easy handling in the cabin.

To finish

Tropical fruit plate with baobab powder and lime zest

Seasonal fruit — mango, papaya, and whatever is at peak ripeness on the day — arranged simply and dusted with baobab powder, which adds a citric, slightly caramel note without any additional sugar or dressing.

Inflight Catering · Tambacounda

Inflight catering for Tambacounda flights

Tambacounda sits at the geographic heart of Senegal, where the country's eastern savannahs meet the transit routes connecting the coast to the Sahel. It is a working city rather than a tourist postcard, and that distinction shapes everything about how we source here: markets are practical, produce is seasonal, and relationships with local suppliers are earned through consistency rather than ceremony. The surrounding region yields ingredients that rarely appear on menus further west — wild-harvested tamarind, moringa grown without intervention, and freshwater fish from the Gambia River basin. We work with suppliers who understand both quality and the logistical realities of an interior location, ensuring that what arrives at your aircraft is genuinely fresh rather than merely recently transported.

Regional Catering Menu · Tambacounda

Tambacounda private jet catering

Senegalese cuisine in the Tambacounda region carries a distinct inland character. Millet and fonio replace rice as the grounding grain of many dishes; slow-cooked lamb and beef, seasoned with dried baobab leaf and fermented locust bean, reflect the pastoral economy of the eastern provinces. Our culinary team translates these honest, robust flavours into cabin-appropriate presentations — portioned cleanly, plated without contrivance, and packaged to hold temperature from kitchen to galley door. For passengers who prefer a lighter or more internationally familiar profile, we compose menus around the same local produce — moringa-dressed salads, tamarind-glazed poultry, fresh-cut tropical fruit arranged with care. Kosher orders require 24 hours' notice and arrive sealed and certified. Every order, regardless of complexity, moves through a single point of contact so there is no ambiguity about what has been confirmed and what is on its way.
