Which handler do you deliver to at SZF?

We deliver directly to Universal Aviation at Samsun Çarşamba. If your aircraft moves to a different handling agent, let your contact know and we will coordinate with whichever handler holds the aircraft.

Can you source fresh local produce for a flight departing Samsun?

Yes. The Black Sea coastal region and the agricultural valleys inland provide seasonal fish, hazelnuts, dairy and fresh vegetables. Our sourcing team maintains active supplier relationships in the area to support fresh, regionally grounded menus.

Do you cater kosher meals at Samsun?

Kosher catering is available with a minimum twenty-four-hour lead time. Please specify this requirement when placing your order so we can confirm the appropriate certified source and packaging.

Is high-loader delivery possible at Samsun Çarşamba?

Yes. The runway length and infrastructure at SZF support wide-body and large-cabin aircraft, and high-loader delivery is available for orders requiring it. Confirm your aircraft type when ordering and we will arrange accordingly.

Can you coordinate catering across multiple regional stops on the same trip?

Absolutely. If your itinerary includes additional airports in the region — such as those serving Amasya, Ordu or Sinop — Altitude Dining's network covers them through the same account team, with one consolidated brief.

What lead time do you recommend for a full crew and passenger order at SZF?

For standard orders we recommend a minimum of four hours before departure. Complex menus, large passenger counts or special dietary requirements — including kosher — benefit from twenty-four hours or more. We will always advise honestly if a request cannot be fulfilled in the time available.

Inflight Catering · Samsun

Private aviation catering at SZF

Samsun sits at the heart of Turkey's Black Sea coast, a region whose culinary character is shaped by cold, deep waters and fertile inland valleys. The hazelnut orchards stretching west toward Ordu and the fishing communities along the Sinop coastline produce ingredients that rarely appear on menus further inland — and we work directly with local suppliers to bring them aboard your aircraft. The broader hinterland deepens that larder considerably. From the apple and cherry orchards around Amasya, roughly a hundred kilometres to the south, to the rich agricultural plains approaching Tokat and the highland pastures near Sivas, this corner of Anatolia rewards a kitchen that pays attention. Altitude Dining's sourcing team maps these relationships so that every order for Samsun private jet catering reflects the season honestly.

Regional Catering Menu · Samsun

Samsun inflight catering

Black Sea cuisine is assertive and honest: anchovy dishes prepared a dozen different ways, cornbread baked with that particular yellow maize grown in the coastal strip, yoghurt-dressed wild herb salads, and slow-cooked lamb from upland flocks. We translate these traditions into galley-ready formats — portioned, chilled or hot-held as your departure schedule demands — without flattening the flavours that make them worth requesting. For international menus, Samsun's cold-chain infrastructure and Universal Aviation's handling facilities allow us to combine locally sourced proteins with imported produce and specialty items. Kosher orders are accommodated with a minimum twenty-four-hour lead time. Every tray and container leaves our kitchen labelled, temperature-logged and timed to your wheels-up.
