Which handler will you deliver to at LMP?

We deliver to whichever handling agent is managing your aircraft. Confirm the handler name when you place your order and we coordinate directly with them so you have nothing to chase on the ground.

Can you source kosher meals for a flight departing Lampedusa?

Yes. Certified kosher catering requires a minimum 24-hour lead time to arrange sealed, certified product. Please flag the requirement clearly when you make your initial enquiry.

What fresh local produce can realistically appear in our menus?

Local tuna, dentex, sea urchin in season, island-grown capers, wild herbs and sun-dried tomatoes are all genuinely available. We confirm exact availability at the time of ordering, because supply on a small island is inherently seasonal.

Do you cater crew meals separately from the passenger cabin?

Yes. Crew meals are prepared, labelled and packed separately from passenger catering — portioned for practicality, nutritionally balanced and clearly differentiated in the delivery.

Can the same catering brief be carried across a multi-leg trip through the central Mediterranean?

It can. We serve several airports in the wider region, including Pantelleria, Valletta and Monastir. A single point of contact manages the full itinerary, so your preferences, dietary notes and presentation standards carry seamlessly from leg to leg.

Is Lampedusa private jet catering available for last-minute departures?

We operate 24 hours a day and will always attempt to fulfil short-notice requests. Availability of specific fresh ingredients cannot be guaranteed on tight timelines, but a quality cold selection can typically be assembled faster than a full hot-prepared order.

Inflight catering menu for Lampedusa

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

The Altitude Dining kitchenItaly

To start

Local Tuna Crudo with Island Capers

Hand-sliced sushi-grade tuna dressed with cold-pressed Sicilian olive oil, lemon zest, fleur de sel and the island's own small capers. Served chilled on a slate insert.

To start

Sea Urchin Bruschetta on Semolina Toast

Fresh uni from the surrounding straits, spooned over lightly charred semolina bread rubbed with garlic and finished with a thread of chilli oil. Seasonal availability confirmed at order.

Hot main

Seared Tuna Loin, Chickpea Purée, Harissa Butter

Centre-cut tuna seared to order, rested and portioned over a silky chickpea purée with a harissa-spiced butter — a preparation that reflects the North African inflection natural to this latitude.

Hot main

Dentex Fillet, Braised Fennel, Caper and Tomato Sauce

Delicate white-fleshed dentex, steamed and finished in a concentrated sauce of sun-dried tomato, capers and white wine. Galley-ready in a sealed tray for gentle reheating.

Pâtisserie

Almond and Orange Blossom Semolina Cake

A moist single-portion cake built on fine semolina, ground almonds and orange blossom water — the shared pastry vocabulary of Sicily and the Tunisian coast, wrapped and ready to serve at room temperature.

To finish

Citrus and Honey Tart with Candied Peel

A crisp almond-paste shell filled with a set lemon and honey cream, finished with strips of house-candied orange peel. Individually boxed and stable for the full flight duration.

Inflight Catering · Lampedusa

Inflight catering for Lampedusa flights

The island's isolation is, paradoxically, its greatest culinary asset. Lampedusa's fishing community lands sea urchin, dentex and blue-fin tuna from some of the cleanest water in the central Mediterranean, and its small market trades in capers, wild herbs and sun-dried tomatoes that carry an intensity impossible to replicate on the mainland. We build menus around what is genuinely here, not a generic Italian template. Because the island sits equidistant from Sicily, Malta and the Tunisian coast, the food culture absorbs North African and Maltese inflections alongside the Italian south. A slow-braised lamb with harissa-warmed chickpeas is as native to this latitude as a pasta alle vongole, and our kitchen leans into that honesty when assembling your inflight catering order from Lampedusa.

Regional Catering Menu · Lampedusa

Lampedusa private jet catering

Tuna is the signature ingredient — caught locally, handled with the care of sushi-grade product and dressed simply with Sicilian olive oil, lemon zest and sea salt. We portion it cold for starters, sear it briefly for hot mains, or press it into a composed niçoise-style salad that travels beautifully in a chilled galley drawer. Alongside it, we source capers from the island's own bushes, small and punchy, incorporated into sauces, garnishes and vinaigrettes throughout the menu. Pastry work at this latitude favours almonds, citrus and honey — the building blocks of both Sicilian and Tunisian confectionery. Our pâtisserie team prepares almond paste tarts, candied orange peel financiers and semolina cakes scented with orange blossom that reflect the cultural crossroads on which LMP sits. Crew meals are constructed with the same sourcing discipline: wholesome, protein-forward and sized for a full duty cycle.
