Can alcohol be included in an order uplifted at Agatti?

No. The Lakshadweep islands are a dry territory and alcoholic beverages cannot be loaded at Agatti under any circumstances. If your itinerary includes a mainland leg, we can arrange bonded alcohol to be uplifted there instead.

Which mainland hubs do you source produce from for Agatti flights?

Our primary sourcing points for Agatti are Mangaluru and Kochi, both within Kerala and Karnataka's main agricultural and fishing belts. Depending on your menu and lead time, we may also draw on suppliers connected to Calicut or Kannur.

Can you accommodate Kosher meals at Agatti?

Yes, though a minimum 24-hour lead time is required over and above our standard 48-hour island notice. Kosher meals are sealed and certified before leaving the mainland kitchen and arrive at the aircraft with their certification intact.

Which handler will you deliver to at Agatti?

Agatti has limited fixed-base infrastructure, so we coordinate with whichever handler or ground agent is managing your aircraft. Confirm those details when you place your order and we handle the rest.

What types of aircraft are typically catered at Agatti?

The runway length limits operations to lighter aircraft, so orders here are generally sized for light to mid-size cabin configurations. We pack and portion accordingly, optimising for compact galley storage.

How quickly will someone respond to my catering enquiry?

Our team responds to all enquiries within ten minutes, 24 hours a day. You will be assigned a single point of contact who manages your order from confirmation through to planeside delivery.

Q: How far in advance should I order catering for Agatti?

We recommend a minimum of 48 hours' notice. Unlike mainland airports, all provisions must be sourced from the Kerala or Karnataka coast and transported across to the island, so early confirmation allows us to guarantee freshness and avoid any shortfall.

The chef's menu at AGX

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

The Altitude Dining kitchenIndia

Hot main

Malabar Prawn Caldine

Sustainably caught prawns in a mild coconut and turmeric broth, finished with fresh curry leaves and green chilli. Packed chilled in a sealed galley container, ready to warm in under four minutes.

Hot main

Kerala Spiced Chicken with Appam

Slow-braised chicken in a roasted coconut and black pepper masala, portioned alongside individually wrapped rice-flour appam. A considered nod to the Malabar coast without requiring any onboard preparation beyond gentle reheating.

Cold main

Avial and Brown Rice Thali

A composed vegetarian plate of mixed seasonal vegetables in coconut and yoghurt, accompanied by Kerala brown rice and a small pot of mango pickle. Entirely plant-based and travels impeccably.

To finish

Coconut and Cardamom Pannacotta

Set with Lakshadweep-grade coconut cream and scented with green cardamom sourced from the Western Ghats. Served in a spill-proof portion jar with a dried rose petal garnish.

Pâtisserie

Spiced Banana and Jaggery Bread

A dense, moist loaf made with ripe Kerala nendran banana and unrefined jaggery, lightly spiced with cinnamon and nutmeg. Individually sliced and wrapped — equally suited to a morning departure or an afternoon service.

To start

Chilled Kokum and Ginger Shooter

A bracing two-sip amuse served in a sealed glass vial: sun-dried kokum from the Karnataka coast, cold-pressed ginger and a pinch of rock salt. Awakens the palate at the start of any meal.

Inflight Catering · Agatti

Agatti private jet catering

The Lakshadweep islands operate under strict environmental protections, which shapes everything about provisioning on Agatti. Alcohol is prohibited across the territory, and all supplies — whether fresh produce, chilled proteins or bonded goods — must be sourced from the mainland and transported in. There is no local market to draw from on the atoll itself, so lead times and cold-chain discipline are paramount. For mainland sourcing we work through our network connecting to Mangaluru and Kochi, the nearest major supply hubs on the Kerala and Karnataka coasts. Kerala's fishing traditions run deep, and its spice-growing heartland produces cardamom, black pepper and kokum of exceptional quality — ingredients that travel well when handled correctly and bring genuine regional character to an inflight menu, even at this distance.

Regional Catering Menu · Agatti

Inflight catering menu for Agatti

Given Agatti's island setting and the provenance of its supply chain, menus here naturally lean toward the coastal cuisines of southern India. Malabar-spiced seafood preparations, coconut-milk curries built on Kerala's aromatic pantry, and rice-based dishes that hold beautifully in a galley context are all strong choices. Our culinary team designs every dish with the realities of the journey to the aircraft in mind — nothing that degrades under transit, everything portioned and sealed for galley-ready delivery. We are equally comfortable moving away from the region entirely. Guests preferring a continental cold table, a Middle Eastern mezze spread or a Japanese-inspired selection will find no compromise in quality simply because the airport is remote. Kosher requirements are accommodated with a minimum 24-hour lead time. The single non-negotiable, in line with local regulations, is that no alcoholic beverages are included in any order uplifted at Agatti.
