Which handler should I nominate for delivery at KSFM?

Our team delivers to whichever handler is holding your aircraft on the day. Simply confirm the handler name and parking stand when you place the order and we coordinate the rest directly with them.

Can you source fresh Maine lobster and local seafood for a flight departing Sanford?

Yes. With Portland and Portsmouth both within 45 kilometres, we have established relationships with suppliers who provide day-boat seafood and locally smoked fish. Lead time requirements depend on order complexity — contact us to discuss specifics.

Do you cater kosher meals at this airport?

Kosher catering is available at Sanford with a minimum 24-hour lead time. Please confirm this requirement at the time of booking so we can ensure proper certification and packaging.

What size aircraft can you cater for at SFM?

We cater for the full range of aircraft operating at KSFM, from single-pilot turboprops through to mid-size and super-mid jets. Galley-ready packaging is prepared to the specific galley configuration you provide.

Can you arrange crew meals separately from the passenger cabin order?

Absolutely. Crew meals are packaged and labelled distinctly from cabin service. Many operators request straightforward, sustaining crew options alongside a more elaborate passenger brief — both are handled within the same order.

Does Altitude Dining operate if our departure is outside normal business hours?

We operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Late-night departures, early-morning pre-dawn uplifts, and weekend movements are all treated with the same service standard as a midday weekday order.

Private jet catering menu for Sanford

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

The Altitude Dining kitchenUnited States

Cold main

Maine Lobster Salad, Tarragon Cream, Cucumber Ribbon

Freshly picked lobster knuckle and claw meat dressed with a light tarragon cream, served chilled alongside thinly shaved cucumber and a squeeze of preserved lemon. Travels impeccably in a sealed galley container.

To start

Smoked Bluefish Rillettes, Sourdough Crostini

Atlantic bluefish cold-smoked over applewood, worked into a coarse rillette with crème fraîche and chive. Portioned in individual jars with crostini sealed separately for texture.

Hot main

Slow-Braised Short Rib, Celeriac Purée, Red Wine Reduction

Beef short rib braised low and slow until yielding, plated over a smooth celeriac purée and finished with a concentrated red wine and thyme reduction. A composed hot main built for cold-weather departures.

Morning

Wild Blueberry Compote, Greek Yoghurt, Toasted Granola

Maine wild blueberries — smaller and more intensely flavoured than cultivated varieties — cooked down to a jammy compote and layered over thick yoghurt with a house granola. Clean, seasonal, and satisfying.

Pâtisserie

Brown Butter Apple Tart, Crème Fraîche

Thin-crust tart built on a buttery pâte brisée base, filled with thinly sliced New England apple and finished with a brown butter glaze. Served at cabin temperature with crème fraîche on the side.

To finish

Aged Cheddar, Local Honeycomb, Candied Walnuts

A focused cheese finish using a sharp, cave-aged cheddar from a New England artisan producer, paired with raw honeycomb and house-candied walnuts. No excess — just three elements that earn their place.

Inflight Catering · Sanford

Inflight catering in Sanford

Sanford sits in York County, a corner of Maine that produces some of the most distinctive ingredients on the eastern seaboard. Lobster hauled from the Gulf of Maine, hand-harvested sea vegetables, wild blueberries, and artisan cheesemakers within easy reach of the field — this is a larder worth drawing from seriously, and our sourcing team does exactly that. Portsmouth lies 36 kilometres away, Portland 43 — two cities whose food cultures have earned national attention for good reason. That proximity means we can move fresh, locally sourced produce onto your aircraft without compromise. Whether the brief calls for a chowder course built from this morning's catch or a charcuterie board anchored by Maine-made cured meats, the supply chain is genuinely short.

Regional Catering Menu · Sanford

Local sourcing for SFM

New England's seasons dictate what belongs on a properly composed menu here. In warmer months, heirloom tomatoes, sweet corn, and stone fruit from farms in the Saco River valley give cold plates a vivid clarity. Come autumn and winter, the focus shifts to braises, root-vegetable preparations, and the kind of warming, structured dishes that long-haul cabins genuinely call for. Our culinary team works to the season, not against it. Seafood naturally dominates any honest treatment of Maine cuisine — whole lobster presentations, chilled shellfish boards, and smoked fish preparations that travel exceptionally well in properly chilled galley containers. For passengers with dietary requirements, we accommodate kosher menus with a minimum 24-hour lead time, alongside halal, plant-based, and allergen-managed briefs handled with equal rigour.
