Private jet menu for Ketchikan

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

The Altitude Dining kitchenUnited States

To start
Alder-Smoked King Salmon
Whole side cold-smoked over local alder wood, sliced to order and accompanied by dill crème fraîche, pickled cucumber ribbons, and sourdough from a Ketchikan bakery. Served chilled, galley-ready.
Cold main
Chilled Dungeness Crab Plate
Freshly cracked claw and knuckle meat arranged over shaved fennel with a tarragon and lemon dressing. Clean, precise, and a direct expression of the Inside Passage fishery.
Hot main
Pan-Roasted Halibut with Brown Butter and Capers
Line-caught Alaskan halibut fillet, roasted and finished with a brown butter, caper, and flat-leaf parsley sauce. Accompanied by crushed new potatoes and wilted coastal greens.
Morning
Panhandle Morning Board
A composed morning spread of smoked salmon, soft-boiled eggs, cream cheese, house-cured gravlax, wild blueberry preserve, and sliced sourdough. Portioned per passenger and chilled for ramp delivery.
Pâtisserie
Wild Blueberry and Almond Tart
Short-crust pastry case filled with frangipane and topped with Alaskan wild blueberries glazed with a light elderflower syrup. Individual portions, travel-sealed.
To finish
Cloudberry Pavlova
A compact individual pavlova — crisp meringue shell, softly whipped cream, and a spoonful of cloudberry compote. Seasonal and specific to the region when available.

Private aviation catering at KTN

Ketchikan sits at the southern edge of the Alaska Panhandle, where the Tongass National Forest meets the Inside Passage. The town is a genuine fishing community rather than a resort approximation of one — Dungeness crab, king salmon, and halibut move from boat to dock to kitchen with a directness that is rare even by Alaskan standards. That proximity shapes everything we source for cabins departing KTN. The surrounding waters also yield spot prawns and Olympia-adjacent shellfish varieties that rarely appear on menus further south. We work with local suppliers to secure the day's catch and incorporate it into dishes that reflect where the aircraft actually is, not a generic Pacific Northwest template. Neighbours such as Metlakatla and Wrangell sit within the same coastal network, and produce can be coordinated across the region when a broader itinerary calls for it.

Regional Catering Menu · Ketchikan

The obvious centrepiece is wild salmon — sockeye and king both — cured, cold-smoked over alder, or prepared as a hot main with a brown-butter and caper finish. Alongside it, Dungeness crab lends itself to clean, unfussy presentations: chilled claw meat with a dill crème fraîche, or folded into a warm bisque that travels well in insulated galley containers. Halibut, when the season permits, offers a leaner option that holds texture far better than most white fish at altitude. Beyond the sea, the Panhandle produces excellent wild blueberries and cloudberries in season, and local bakeries in Ketchikan turn out sourdough with a character that comes from decades of active starters. We incorporate these into our morning boards and pâtisserie selections, so that even a short turnaround at PAKT results in a spread that feels deliberately placed rather than generically assembled.
