How far in advance should I order?

We ask for a minimum of four hours for standard menus. Kosher catering requires at least 24 hours' notice to allow for certified preparation and sealed delivery. Bespoke menus or large group orders benefit from 24–48 hours where the schedule permits.

Which handler will you deliver to at Agno?

We are handler-agnostic at this airport and will deliver to whichever company is managing your aircraft. Provide the handler name when you order and we will coordinate timing directly with their ramp team.

Can you cater crew meals separately from the passenger order?

Yes. Crew meals are prepared, packaged, and labelled separately, priced and portioned according to the number of operating crew on the duty. We treat them as a distinct element of every order rather than an add-on.

Do you source local Ticino produce?

Where the menu calls for it, yes. Ticino merlot, regional polenta, lake fish, and local charcuterie are all available as components. Because the airport sits close to the Lombardy border, northern Italian ingredients are equally accessible to our sourcing team.

Can you coordinate catering for the same trip at a nearby airport?

Yes. Our network covers airports across the region — including those at Samedan, Sion, and Buochs — and a single order desk manages all legs simultaneously, so there is no need to brief a separate supplier at each stop.

How is temperature integrity maintained on delivery?

Hot items travel in insulated carriers calibrated for compact galley environments; chilled items are packed with dry ice quantities matched to the expected hold conditions on the aircraft types operating at Agno. Delivery timing is set to minimise time between handover and service.

The chef's menu at LUG

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

The Altitude Dining kitchenSwitzerland

To start

Coregone carpaccio, rapeseed oil, capers, lemon

Thinly sliced lake whitefish from Lago di Lugano, dressed tableside with cold-pressed rapeseed oil, salt-packed capers, and a fine dice of preserved lemon. Chilled and galley-ready.

Cold main

Risotto al salto, Ticino saffron, aged Grana

Carnaroli rice finished with a pinch of locally sourced saffron and a hand of aged hard cheese, pressed into a thin cake and sealed for reheating. Holds its character well beyond service time.

Hot main

Brasato di manzo, polenta taragna, pickled shallots

Slow-braised beef in regional merlot, portioned over stone-milled buckwheat and cornmeal polenta. The pickling cuts the richness cleanly and travels without softening.

Morning

Pane di segale, cultured butter, Ticino chestnut honey

Dense sourdough rye baked by a Lugano-area fornaio, served alongside lightly salted cultured butter and a pot of single-origin chestnut honey from the Ticino hills.

Pâtisserie

Torta di pane, candied citrus, crème fraîche

A traditional Ticinese bread pudding made with day-old loaf, milk, eggs, and a careful hand of sugar — finished with strips of candied bergamot and a quenelle of lightly soured cream.

To finish

Selection of Ticino merlot and aged formaggella

A composed cheese board built around formaggella del Luinese — a semi-soft mountain cheese from just across the border — paired with a small pour of estate-bottled Ticino merlot and toasted walnut bread.

Inflight Catering · Agno

Agno private jet catering

Ticino is Switzerland's southernmost canton, and its table reflects that geography — risotto cooked with Arborio rice from the Po Plain, polenta pressed from stone-milled farina, and game from the forested ridges above Lugano. The region's Italian-speaking culture shapes everything from the olive oils on the market stalls to the way a Sunday lunch unfolds: unhurried, generous, and built around produce harvested that morning. Lugano itself is a compact financial and cultural city on the lakeshore, and its proximity to the northern Italian border means the larder available to our sourcing team is unusually broad. Aged Ticino merlot, lake-caught coregone, and hand-rolled pasta from local laboratori all sit within the same short radius as the airport — allowing us to build menus that say something specific about where your flight begins.

Regional Catering Menu · Agno

Inflight catering menu for Agno

The kitchen traditions of Ticino blend Swiss rigour with the flavours of Lombardy. We draw on both: a broth of slow-roasted bones finished with local saffron, a carpaccio of lake fish dressed with cold-pressed rapeseed oil, or a risotto al salto that travels well in a properly sealed gastronorm — each dish composed with the galley in mind rather than retrofitted from a restaurant menu. For morning departures we assemble continental boards that lean into the region's baking — dense, slightly sour pane di segale alongside cultured butter and Ticino honey, with fresh fruit sourced from the market traders who supply Lugano's better restaurants. Our crew meals follow the same philosophy: honest, sustaining, and never an afterthought.
