Which handlers do you deliver to at Belfast City?

We deliver to whichever handler holds your aircraft on the day. There is no preferred or exclusive arrangement — simply confirm the handling agent when you place your order and our team will coordinate directly.

Can you cater a short regional hop, say to Prestwick or Derry, as well as a longer transatlantic sector?

Yes. Whether the flight is a forty-minute positioning leg to Prestwick or a long-haul departure, we calibrate portion count, packaging format, and menu complexity to the sector length. Multi-leg itineraries are handled under a single order and a single point of contact.

Do you provide crew meals separately from passenger catering?

Crew meals are a standard part of every order and are packaged separately, clearly labelled, and priced independently of the passenger service. We apply the same sourcing standards to both.

How do you handle dietary requirements?

All common requirements — gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, vegetarian, halal, and low-FODMAP — are accommodated as a matter of course. Kosher certification requires twenty-four hours' notice. Please detail all requirements at the point of ordering.

Is the service available for early-morning or late-night departures?

Our kitchen and operations team operate around the clock, every day of the year. Pre-dawn departures and late-night uplifts are handled with the same lead-time expectations as any other slot.

What is your response time for quotes and queries?

We aim to respond to every enquiry within ten minutes. For urgent or same-day requests, calling directly is the fastest route to confirmation.

Inflight Catering · Belfast

Belfast private jet catering

Belfast sits at the heart of one of the most quietly compelling food cultures in the British Isles. The Lagan Valley and the surrounding County Down farmland yield exceptional beef, lamb, and soft-fruit harvests, while the Irish Sea delivers langoustines, brown crab, and day-boat hake to Belfast's wholesale markets within hours of landing. For Belfast private jet catering, proximity to these suppliers is not incidental — it is the foundation of everything we send aboard. The city's culinary identity has sharpened considerably over the past decade, with a cohort of independent chefs drawing on Armagh's famous orchard county, the Mourne Mountains' spring water-fed streams, and the yellow-cream butter churned in small Antrim dairies. We source from that same network, so a board assembled in our Belfast kitchen carries a genuinely regional character rather than a generic premium gloss.

Regional Catering Menu · Belfast

Inflight catering menu for Belfast

Northern Ireland's larder offers ingredients that travel beautifully and taste unmistakably of place. Strangford Lough oysters, cold-smoked Lough Neagh eel, and Comber early potatoes — the first new potatoes of the British season, with protected geographical status — sit alongside Glenarm organic salmon and Hereford cross beef reared on the drumlin pastures of County Down. Our kitchen translates these into clean, composed dishes calibrated for the cabin environment: nothing that suffers from altitude, nothing that overwhelms the palate mid-flight. Wherever possible we build menus around the week's best arrivals rather than a static list. A late-spring order might centre on Armagh Bramley apple purée alongside pan-roasted duck breast; an autumn uplift could feature potted Strangford crab with soda-bread soldiers and a finish of warm Bushmills-cured pear. Kosher meals are available with a minimum of twenty-four hours' notice, prepared to full certification standards and sealed for galley delivery.
