Which FBOs and handlers at IAD can you deliver to?

We deliver to whichever handler holds your aircraft at IAD — no prior account or standing arrangement required on your side. Confirm the handler name and parking location in your request and we coordinate access directly.

Can you handle last-minute or same-day orders at IAD?

Yes — same-day orders are a regular part of operations at Dulles. Submit your request as early as your schedule allows; your coordinator will confirm what is achievable for your specific departure window and advise on any items that need additional lead time, such as kosher meals.

How are crew meals handled at Dulles?

Crew meals for IAD departures are prepared separately from the cabin order, individually packed, and loaded at the same time. They are designed around the rotation — balanced and correctly portioned — not assembled from cabin surplus. Note crew numbers and any dietary requirements in your initial request.

Do you cater halal, kosher, vegetarian, and allergy requirements at IAD?

All of those requirements are available for departures from Dulles. Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and halal options are available on standard lead times. Kosher orders require a minimum of 24 hours; note this and any allergen details clearly when you submit the request.

How do I place an order for an IAD departure?

Send your departure date, departure window, number of passengers, crew count, and any dietary requirements through the request form or directly to your coordinator. You will receive confirmation within 10 minutes, 24 hours a day. Your coordinator at KIAD handles everything from that point forward.

What does catering at IAD cost?

Pricing at Dulles is per order and depends on menu selection, passenger and crew count, lead time, and whether specialist items such as kosher are required. We do not publish a rate card because no two orders are the same. Send your brief and we will return a quote within 10 minutes.

Private jet catering in Dulles

The Chesapeake Bay sits less than two hours from IAD, and its influence reaches every serious kitchen in the region. Blue crab, rockfish, and oysters from the Bay's Virginia tributaries are staples on local menus from September through spring — and they travel well when packed correctly for a galley. Inland, the Shenandoah Valley supplies some of the best poultry, beef, and orchard fruit on the East Coast. Orchards around Winchester and the apple-growing corridor along the Blue Ridge have been producing for the Washington market since before the capital existed. That proximity means produce loaded at KIAD can leave the farm the same morning.

Regional Catering Menu · Dulles

Fresh catering for Dulles flights

A well-composed IAD departure might open with chilled Rappahannock oysters dressed with a light mignonette, move through a main of pan-roasted Shenandoah Valley chicken with preserved lemon and Virginia olive oil, and finish with a slice of Blue Ridge apple tart — short pastry, barely sweetened, built to hold at altitude without losing texture. Every element is sourced within a morning's drive of the field and prepared to galley-ready standard before your departure window.
