How much notice do you need for aircraft catering at KESC?

For most menus, including fresh and locally sourced items, we ask for a minimum of four hours. Kosher catering requires at least 24 hours to maintain full certification integrity.

Which FBO or handler do you deliver to at Escanaba?

We deliver to whichever handler holds your aircraft on the day. Let us know the ramp location at the time of order and we coordinate directly with the handling team on your behalf.

Can you cater multiple legs, including onward stops beyond Escanaba?

Yes. Through our worldwide network we can arrange catering for subsequent stops — including Green Bay, Traverse City, or further afield — under the same brief and with the same point of contact.

Do you provide crew meals as well as passenger catering?

Crew meals are included as a standard service and are prepared to the same sourcing standards as the passenger cabin. They are packaged separately and clearly labelled for easy distribution on the flight deck.

How are orders delivered — do they require onboard preparation?

All items are delivered galley-ready: portioned, sealed, chilled or hot as specified, and labelled with allergen and reheating information where relevant. No additional preparation is required from the crew.

Can you accommodate dietary requirements and food allergies?

All dietary requirements — plant-based, gluten-managed, low-sodium, allergen-controlled, and others — are handled at the order stage at no additional complexity. Please specify at the time of booking so the kitchen can prepare accordingly.

Private jet catering menu for Escanaba

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

The Altitude Dining kitchenUnited States

To start

Lake Michigan Whitefish Rillette

Cold-smoked Upper Peninsula whitefish, pulled and folded with crème fraîche, capers, and dill, served in a sealed jar with rye crispbread. A clean, lake-forward starter that travels without compromise.

Cold main

Venison Tartare with Pickled Juniper

Hand-cut Upper Peninsula venison seasoned with grain mustard and cold-pressed canola, finished with hand-pickled juniper berries and shaved radish. Portioned and chilled for straightforward cabin service.

Cold main

Wild Rice and Dried Cranberry Salad

Regional wild rice dressed with apple cider vinegar, toasted pecan, and dried Michigan cranberry. Substantial enough to stand alone, versatile enough to accompany a protein course.

Hot main

Braised Short Rib with Root Vegetable Purée

Slow-braised beef short rib finished with a reduced dark stock, alongside a purée of late-harvest parsnip and celeriac. Sealed in a galley-ready hot box and labelled for crew reheating.

Morning

Buckwheat Crêpes with Maple and Toasted Hazelnut

Thin buckwheat crêpes folded with lightly whipped cream and a maple reduction sourced from the Upper Peninsula. A considered morning option that avoids the heaviness of a full cooked breakfast.

To finish

Dark Chocolate and Black Cherry Tart

A pressed dark chocolate ganache tart shell filled with a Montmorency cherry compote — Michigan's most recognisable stone fruit — finished with a light cocoa glaze. Individually portioned and chilled.

Inflight Catering · Escanaba

Inflight catering in Escanaba

Escanaba sits on the western shore of Little Bay de Noc, a corner of Michigan's Upper Peninsula defined by cold-water fishing, hardwood forests, and a food culture grounded in what the land and lake actually produce. Wild-caught whitefish from Lake Michigan, locally foraged morels in spring, and hand-harvested wild rice from the region's inland lakes give our culinary team genuine raw material to work with — not a generic airport menu dressed in regional language. The Upper Peninsula's short growing season concentrates flavour. Summer berries, late-harvest root vegetables, and smoked lake trout are provisions that travel well and speak clearly to anyone boarding in this part of the Midwest. For Escanaba private jet catering, we lean on these regional staples as the backbone of every brief, then build outward according to passenger preferences and dietary requirements.

Local sourcing for ESC

Our kitchen approach for aircraft catering out of Escanaba centres on clean, uncluttered presentations that respect the ingredient rather than obscure it. A cedar-planked whitefish rillette, a venison tartare with pickled juniper, or a chilled wild rice salad with dried cranberry and toasted pecan — each dish is portioned and sealed for galley-ready delivery, arriving chilled, labelled, and ready for the crew to present without additional preparation. Crew meals receive the same sourcing discipline as passenger cabins. We do not operate a two-tier kitchen. Whether the brief calls for a straightforward hot protein with grains or a more composed cold box for a long sector, the produce quality remains consistent. Kosher requirements are accommodated with a minimum 24-hour lead time; all other dietary specifications — allergen-managed, plant-based, low-sodium — are handled as standard at the order stage.
