Which handler or FBO do you deliver to at Egilsstaðir?

We deliver to whichever ground handler is managing your aircraft. Simply confirm the handling agent when you place your order and we coordinate directly with them so the catering reaches the stand on time.

Can you source local Icelandic ingredients for a flight departing Egilsstaðir?

Yes. East Iceland produces distinctive lamb, Arctic char from Lagarfljót, and skyr from regional dairies. We source these through established local suppliers and incorporate them into bespoke menus on request, subject to advance notice.

Are kosher meals available?

Kosher meals can be arranged with a minimum of twenty-four hours' notice. Please specify this requirement at the time of ordering so we can secure the appropriate certified preparation and packaging.

Do you cater for crew as well as passengers?

Crew meals are prepared to the same culinary standard as all passenger orders. Whether it is a hot meal, a cold-plate selection, or simple provisions for a long duty day, crew requirements are treated with equal care.

Egilsstaðir private jet catering menu

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

The Altitude Dining kitchenIceland

To start

Lagarfljót Arctic Char, Dill Crème Fraîche

Cold-cured char fillet from the Lagarfljót valley, thinly sliced and served with a light dill crème fraîche, pickled shallots, and rye flatbread crisps. Clean, northern, and entirely of this place.

Cold main

Skyr-Cured Gravlax Board

East Icelandic skyr used as a curing medium for sustainably sourced salmon, sliced cold and presented with mustard-seed dressing, caperberries, and thinly sliced dark rye. Composed for ease of service in a compact galley.

Hot main

Braised Highland Lamb Shoulder

Slow-braised East Icelandic lamb with a root-vegetable and thyme purée, glazed heritage carrots, and a rosemary jus. Portioned and sealed for reliable reheating at altitude.

Morning

Icelandic Skyr Pot, Crowberry & Toasted Oat

Full-fat skyr from an East Icelandic dairy, layered with a cold-pressed crowberry reduction from the surrounding heathland and finished with lightly toasted rolled oats. A morning staple that holds its texture well in transit.

Pâtisserie

Rye & Caraway Knäckebröd, Smoked Butter

Dense, twice-baked rye and caraway flatbread served alongside a cold-smoked cultured butter. Travels without refrigeration, pairs with cheese or cured fish, and requires no galley preparation.

To finish

Crowberry & Dark Chocolate Tart

A short pastry case filled with a bitter dark chocolate ganache and finished with a crowberry gel and a pinch of flaked sea salt. Individual portions, set firm for stability during flight.

Inflight Catering · Egilsstaðir

Private jet catering in Egilsstaðir

Egilsstaðir sits at the heart of East Iceland, where the Lagarfljót river valley opens onto birch woodland and lava moorland unlike anywhere else on the island. The town is the region's quiet capital: self-contained, unhurried, and remarkably well-provisioned for its size. Local lamb raised on highland grasses, Arctic char drawn from the cold fresh water of Lagarfljót itself, and skyr from East Icelandic dairies form the backbone of the regional larder — ingredients with a provenance that speaks clearly on the palate. Because the airport serves a compact community rather than a busy hub, supply chains here reward advance planning. Altitude Dining works with trusted regional producers to source these ingredients and consolidate them into galley-ready deliveries, so that what arrives on board genuinely reflects the landscape your passengers have just flown over — or are about to discover.

Regional Catering Menu · Egilsstaðir

Fresh catering for Egilsstaðir flights

East Iceland's culinary character is built on restraint and quality of raw material. Slow-roasted highland lamb shoulder, skyr-cured gravlax prepared from locally caught char, rye flatbreads baked in the traditional Icelandic style, and cold-pressed crowberry reductions from the surrounding heathland are among the regional elements we draw on. These are not decorative flourishes — they are the honest produce of the terrain, given careful treatment in our kitchen before travelling to the aircraft. For longer sectors departing Egilsstaðir, we recommend building the menu around proteins that hold well at altitude: braised lamb with root-vegetable purée, cold char with dill crème fraîche, or a composed cheese selection featuring Icelandic varieties alongside European accompaniments. Kosher meals are available with a minimum of twenty-four hours' notice. Crew meals are prepared to the same standard as passenger orders — a position we hold without exception.
