What is the minimum notice required for an order at CQF?

For most menus we ask for as much lead time as your schedule allows, though we can accommodate short-notice requests. Kosher catering requires a minimum of 24 hours to source and prepare to certified standard — please factor this in when planning.

Which handler at LFAC do you deliver to?

We deliver to whichever handler or FBO holds your aircraft. Simply confirm the handling agent when you place your order and we will coordinate directly with them to ensure a smooth planeside handover.

Can you source fresh local seafood for a flight departing Calais?

Yes. The Boulonnais fishing fleet lands catch very close to the airfield, and we work with trusted suppliers on the Opal Coast. Subject to the day's landing, we can include fresh sole, langoustines or brown shrimps in your order.

Do you cater crew meals separately from passenger meals?

Absolutely. Crew meals are packaged and labelled distinctly, priced separately, and designed to be practical in a compact galley — nutritious, easy to eat during duty and clearly differentiated from the passenger service.

Can you service a routing that involves a nearby airport rather than CQF?

Yes. Our network covers Le Touquet, Lesquin, Oostende and other airfields in the region. If your itinerary changes or your aircraft repositions, let your point of contact know and we will redirect the order accordingly.

How is inflight catering packaged for aircraft using the Calais runway?

Packaging is sized for the compact galleys common to light jets and turboprops operating at CQF. Everything is labelled, chilled where required, and delivered galley-ready so the crew can load and brief without re-organising anything.

Calais private jet catering menu

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

The Altitude Dining kitchenFrance

To start

Opal Coast Seafood Plateau

Chilled Boulonnais sole goujons, hand-picked brown shrimps and Opal Coast langoustines with a tarragon-laced mayonnaise and toasted sourdough — a direct expression of what the Channel provides.

Cold main

Endive and Mimolette Salad

Bitter northern endive leaves, aged Mimolette shaved thin, candied walnuts and a grain-mustard dressing. Crisp, self-contained and exactly as good at altitude as it is on the ground.

Hot main

Maroilles-Glazed Pork Cheek

Slow-braised Hauts-de-France pork cheek finished with a glaze of Maroilles — the pungent, protected cheese of the Avesnois — served with root vegetable purée and a thyme jus.

Morning

Smoked Herring and Potato Tartine

Warm rye bread layered with crème fraîche, thinly sliced new potatoes and Boulonnais smoked herring, finished with chives and a few grains of fleur de sel. A northern French morning staple, made elegant.

Pâtisserie

Opal Coast Madeleine Basket

Butter-rich madeleines baked to order, scented with lemon zest and delivered warm enough to perfume the cabin on boarding. Accompanied by a small pot of local set honey.

To finish

Chicory Tarte Fine with Caramel Beurre Salé

A short-pastry tart of caramelised northern chicory, glossed with salted butter caramel and a curl of crème fraîche. The bitterness of the chicory against the caramel is precise and uncluttered.

Private jet catering in Calais

Calais sits at the closest point between France and Britain, a geographic fact that has shaped its character for centuries. The Opal Coast's fishing tradition runs deep: sole, turbot and langoustines land just minutes from the airfield, and the weekly markets of the old town carry cheeses and charcuterie from the Hauts-de-France interior that few catering kitchens this far north can match. We draw on all of it. The surrounding region is quieter than its cross-Channel reputation suggests. Flat farmland yields endive, chicory and early-season asparagus; the bocage further south supplies duck and pork that appear on serious restaurant menus across Paris. For a departure from LFAC, that larder is genuinely within reach, and our sourcing teams know exactly which suppliers to call.

Regional Catering Menu · Calais

Fresh catering for Calais flights

The Opal Coast places seafood at the centre of the table, and we follow that lead unapologetically. A chilled plateau of Boulonnais sole, hand-picked brown shrimps and Dunkerque-landed langoustines with a tarragon-laced mayonnaise is a natural first move for any northbound or southbound flight. For those who prefer the land, slow-braised Maroilles-glazed pork cheek — made from the pungent, protected cheese of the Avesnois — carries the full weight of the region without a word of explanation. Pâtisserie in this corner of France leans towards the understated: tarts built on short, butter-rich pastry, gaufres de Lille dusted with pearl sugar, and proper madeleines still warm enough to perfume the cabin. We compose dessert selections that travel well and arrive in the galley exactly as intended — never compromised by humidity or handling.
