How much notice do you need for private jet catering at HSI?

For standard orders we recommend a minimum of four hours' notice. Complex menus, large passenger counts or specialist dietary requirements — including kosher — benefit from twenty-four hours or more. Kosher meals specifically require a full twenty-four-hour lead time to maintain certification integrity.

Which handler or FBO do you deliver to at Hastings?

We deliver to whichever handler is managing your aircraft on the day. There is no exclusive arrangement. Provide your handler details at the time of order and we coordinate access and timing directly.

Can you cater a crew that is positioning through Hastings without passengers?

Yes. Crew meals are a standard part of our service and receive the same kitchen standards as passenger orders. Portion sizes, labelling and packaging are all suited to galley organisation during a working flight.

Do you source produce locally in Nebraska?

Where lead time allows, we draw on regional suppliers across the south-central Nebraska corridor — including the Grand Island and Kearney areas — for beef, grains and seasonal produce. The result is a menu that reflects the region rather than a generic international catalogue.

Can you accommodate dietary and allergen requirements?

Yes. Gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, halal and low-sodium options are all available. Please declare any allergies or dietary requirements at the time of ordering so our kitchen can prepare and label items correctly before dispatch.

Can Altitude Dining cover the onward leg if the aircraft continues beyond Hastings?

Our network operates globally. If your routing continues to Lincoln, Kearney or any further destination, your single point of contact can arrange catering at the next stop simultaneously, so there is no gap in service across the full trip.

Inflight Catering · Hastings

Private jet catering in Hastings

Hastings sits at the heart of south-central Nebraska, a working agricultural landscape where beef, corn and heritage grains define the regional table. Grand Island lies forty-two kilometres to the north-west and Kearney fifty-one kilometres beyond that, placing this corridor of the Platte River valley within reach for sourcing the kind of produce that makes an inflight menu genuinely rooted in its surroundings. The surrounding plains reward a straightforward, ingredient-led approach: properly aged Midwestern beef, locally milled grains and seasonal field vegetables that need little embellishment. When a flight is planned with adequate lead time, our kitchen team draws on these regional relationships to build menus that reflect where the journey begins rather than a generic catalogue.

Regional Catering Menu · Hastings

Fresh catering for Hastings flights

Nebraska's cattle country sets an obvious and justified benchmark for protein. Centre-cut tenderloin and short-rib preparations — braised low and slow, then finished for galley regeneration — travel exceptionally well and arrive at the table with the integrity of a restaurant kitchen. Alongside beef, the region's sweet corn, sunflower-oil vinaigrettes and stone-ground polenta offer honest supporting elements that hold altitude without losing texture or flavour. For morning departures, house-baked pastries built on local wheat flour, soft-scrambled egg portions portioned into individual ramekins, and cold-pressed fruit cups assembled the same morning provide a clean, unfussy start. Crew meals receive the same culinary rigour as passenger trays — properly seasoned, correctly portioned and labelled for galley organisation.
