Which handler do you deliver to at CRA?

We work handler-agnostically at Craiova. Once you confirm which handler is managing your aircraft, we coordinate delivery directly with them and ensure catering is waiting at the correct stand.

Can you source Romanian and Oltenian specialities specifically?

Yes. Regional produce — local honey, sheep's cheese, cured meats, and seasonal vegetables from the Wallachian plain — sits at the centre of our Craiova menus. We can build an entirely locally inspired service or blend regional items with more familiar international dishes.

Is kosher catering available?

Kosher meals can be arranged with a minimum of 24 hours' notice, allowing us to source from a certified supplier and maintain the required chain of custody to your aircraft.

Do you cater crew meals as well as cabin service?

Crew meals are a standard part of our service. We treat the flight deck with the same care as the cabin — hot options, balanced nutrition, and correct portioning for duty-day requirements.

Can Altitude Dining support multi-leg itineraries that include other Romanian airports?

Our worldwide network means we can coordinate catering across a full routing. If your programme touches Bucharest or Sibiu on the same trip, a single brief to your point of contact covers every leg.

How far in advance should I place an order?

We ask for as much notice as your schedule allows. For complex or bespoke menus, 24 hours is ideal; for straightforward orders we can often accommodate shorter lead times — contact us and we will confirm feasibility immediately.

The chef's menu at CRA

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

The Altitude Dining kitchenRomania

To start

Roasted Red Pepper & Sheep's Cheese Terrine

Slow-roasted Oltenian peppers layered with local brânză de burduf, finished with cold-pressed sunflower oil and fresh dill. Served at cabin temperature, sliced to order.

Hot main

Ciorbă de Burtă Flask Service

Traditional tripe soup from Oltenia, soured with fermented wheat bran and finished with garlic cream. Dispatched in a pre-heated flask with accompaniments packed separately for in-flight assembly.

Hot main

Slow-Braised Pork Shoulder with Polenta & Pickled Plum

Pork braised overnight with bay and smoked paprika, accompanied by fine polenta and a sharp pickled plum compote that cuts the richness cleanly.

Cold main

Wallachian Vegetable Salad with Walnut Dressing

Seasonal raw and lightly pickled vegetables from the plain around Craiova, dressed with ground walnut, cider vinegar, and a thread of local honey.

Morning

Cozonac with Dark Walnut & Rum Filling

Enriched Romanian sweet bread, lightly toasted before packing, filled with a dark walnut and rum paste. A considered alternative to generic pastry on a morning departure.

To finish

Inflight Catering · Craiova

Craiova private jet catering

Craiova sits at the heart of Oltenia, a region whose larder runs deep — dark forest honey, slow-cured meats, hand-pressed sunflower oil, and vegetables grown in the wide Wallachian plain that surrounds the city. These are not decorative flourishes; they are ingredients our kitchen team sources directly and builds menus around, giving passengers something genuinely rooted in the territory they are departing. The city itself carries a confident cultural character: home to one of Romania's oldest universities, a serious fine-arts tradition, and a food culture that prizes slow cooking and honest seasoning over novelty. That temperament suits private jet catering well — our Craiova menus reflect the same preference for substance over spectacle, whether a one-course crew meal or a multi-course cabin service.

Regional Catering Menu · Craiova

Inflight catering menu for Craiova

Oltenia's kitchen repertoire gives our chefs substantial material to work with. Ciorbă de burtă, the region's celebrated tripe soup, is finished tableside with soured cream and garlic — a dish that travels well in a pre-heated flask and rewards passengers who ask for something local rather than generic. Slow-braised pork with polenta and pickled plum is another signature; robust enough for a long sector, refined enough for a private cabin. For lighter requirements, the valley's produce translates into clean, vivid dishes: roasted peppers marinated in cold-pressed oil, fresh sheep's cheese with dill, and seasonal salads that reflect what the market actually holds that morning. Pastry work draws on the şarlotă and cozonac traditions — enriched doughs, walnut fillings, and a restrained sweetness that pairs well with post-flight coffee service.
