Which handler do you deliver through at Rickenbacker?

We work with Rickenbacker Aviation and can also coordinate with any other handler holding your aircraft on field. Your single point of contact manages that liaison so you do not have to.

Can you cater wide-body or heavy aircraft at this airport?

Yes. The runway infrastructure at LCK supports heavy and wide-body traffic, and our high-loader equipment means we can provision main-deck galleys directly without improvised workarounds.

Do you provide crew meals as well as passenger catering?

Crew meals are a standard part of every order. They are prepared to the same sourcing and presentation standards as passenger trays and packaged separately for ease of distribution on the flight deck.

Is local or regional produce available for Columbus inflight catering orders?

Yes. We source from Central Ohio farms and producers — seasonal vegetables, dairy, heritage meats and more — and integrate those ingredients across both hot and cold menus.

What is the lead time for Kosher meals?

Kosher catering requires a minimum of 24 hours' notice to ensure correct certification and handling throughout the cold chain. All other dietary requirements should be flagged at the time of booking.

Can you service aircraft based at nearby airports in the region?

Our network extends across the region. Aircraft operating from airfields within the broader Central Ohio and surrounding corridor can be accommodated — contact our desk to confirm logistics for your specific location.

Private jet catering in Columbus

Columbus sits at the heart of Ohio, a city whose food culture has quietly grown into something worth paying attention to. From the Central Ohio produce belt to a thriving independent restaurant scene, the region supplies ingredients that travel well and taste unmistakably of their origin. Our sourcing team draws on those relationships to put genuinely local flavour aboard your aircraft. The broader corridor reaching toward Springfield and Zanesville adds further depth — artisan cheesemakers, small-batch preserves, heritage-breed pork from farms that supply some of Columbus's most respected kitchens. When we assemble a Columbus private jet catering order, those regional ties are not decorative; they shape what lands on the plate.

Regional Catering Menu · Columbus

Fresh catering for Columbus flights

Ohio's larder leans toward honest, substantial food done with care: slow-braised meats, root vegetables roasted until their sugars concentrate, freshwater fish from the Lake Erie watershed, and sweet corn that earns its reputation during a short and intense summer season. We translate that register into galley-ready formats — portion-controlled, chilled or hot-held to specification, packaged so presentation survives the journey from our kitchen to cruising altitude. For morning departures out of Rickenbacker we lean on Central Ohio's dairy tradition: cultured butter, fresh chevre, thick yoghurt alongside house-baked pastry. Crew meals receive the same sourcing discipline as passenger trays — a detail that matters on longer rotations when the flight deck is running on whatever arrives in the hold.
