Which handler will you deliver to at Ely?

We work handler-agnostically at this field. Confirm which company is managing your aircraft on arrival and we will coordinate delivery directly with them, ensuring your order is on the ramp when you need it.

Can you cater for crew meals as well as passenger meals on the same order?

Yes. Crew meals are included as standard in our order process — briefed separately to passenger selections and packaged to suit galley access and rest-period timing.

How quickly can someone respond to a new enquiry?

Our team replies to every new enquiry within ten minutes, twenty-four hours a day. For Ely specifically, early contact allows us to pre-position supplies and avoid any last-minute gaps caused by distance from the nearest distribution hub.

Is fresh local produce genuinely available for Ely flights?

Seasonally, yes. Nevada ranching country produces quality beef and some high-desert produce that we can incorporate into your menu. We are transparent about availability: if a locally sourced ingredient cannot be confirmed fresh for your departure date, we will tell you and propose a regional alternative.

Does the high elevation at Ely affect how you prepare or package food?

It does inform our planning. At over 6,200 feet, density altitude affects aircraft performance and therefore payload discipline. We factor weight into how we package orders, using lightweight but thermally efficient containers that keep food at the correct temperature without unnecessary bulk.

Can you service aircraft based at nearby airports such as Eureka or Elko on the same trip?

Yes. Our network covers the broader Great Basin region. If your routing involves Eureka, Elko, or other nearby fields, we can coordinate provisioning across multiple stops under a single order and point of contact.

Q: How far in advance should we place a catering order for Ely?

We recommend a minimum of 24 hours for standard orders given Ely's remote location and the additional logistics coordination required. Kosher provisioning requires a dedicated 24-hour lead time in all cases. Earlier notice always improves the range of fresh options available.

Ely private jet catering menu

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

The Altitude Dining kitchenUnited States

Cold main

White Pine County Strip

Dry-aged Nevada beef strip loin, sliced cold and dressed with a smoked bone-marrow butter, caperberries, and watercress. Holds well at altitude and requires no reheating.

To start

Great Basin Root Plate

Roasted heritage carrots, parsnip, and golden beet sourced from high-desert valley growers, with a whipped sheep's-milk cheese, toasted pine nuts, and a sherry-vinegar glaze.

Hot main

Braised Short Rib, Nevada Rancher's Cut

Twelve-hour bone-in short rib braised in juniper and dark ale, portioned and sealed for galley reheating. Served with a celery-root purée and pickled desert sage.

Morning

High-Desert Granola Pot

Toasted oat and pine-nut granola layered with honey-set Greek yoghurt and a compote of dried Nevada apricot and tart cherry — a composed morning course that travels without any chilling risk.

Pâtisserie

Basin Honey Tart

A blind-baked shortcrust shell filled with a set custard of wildflower honey from the Egan Range foothills, finished with a thin layer of fleur de sel caramel and a sliver of candied lemon.

To finish

Aged Cheddar and Sage Biscuit Board

Hand-rolled savoury biscuits made with sharp aged cheddar and dried sage, paired with a Medjool date-and-walnut paste and a small portion of Nevada ranch butter. A considered close to any meal at elevation.

Private jet catering in Ely

Ely sits in White Pine County, deep within the Great Basin, surrounded by the Schell Creek and Egan mountain ranges. It is genuine Nevada ranching country — unhurried, self-reliant, and far removed from the coastal supply chains that most catering operations take for granted. Serving it properly requires logistics built for distance. Because Ely is one of the more remote airfields in the intermountain West, we coordinate provisioning through our wider Nevada and Utah network, drawing on suppliers across the region to ensure that what arrives aboard your aircraft is fresh, correctly temperature-managed, and galley-ready — regardless of how long the road to the ramp actually is.

Regional Catering Menu · Ely

Fresh catering for Ely flights

The Great Basin pantry rewards those willing to seek it out. Nevada beef from ranches in Elko and White Pine counties is dry-aged and deeply flavoured — the kind of protein that holds its character even after careful reheating at altitude. We source it through verified regional partners and portion it to specification for your galley configuration. High-desert foraging and small-scale agriculture in the valleys between Ely and Eureka yield seasonal produce — heritage squash, drought-hardy root vegetables, and foraged pine nuts — that translate well into composed cold plates and crew meals alike. Where local sourcing is constrained by seasonality or distance, we substitute with the nearest equivalent of equivalent provenance, and we tell you exactly what we have done.
