How far in advance should I order for a departure from TIQ?

For standard menus, 24 hours' notice is comfortable and allows us to source fresh regional produce. Kosher-certified catering requires a minimum of 24 hours' lead time to maintain full certification integrity. For complex or bespoke menus, 48 hours is preferable.

Which handler will receive the delivery on the apron?

We deliver to whichever handler holds your aircraft at the time of departure. Provide handler details when placing your order and we will coordinate access, cold-chain handover, and timing directly with them.

Can you source fresh local produce on Tinian itself?

The island's immediate produce range is limited, but we draw on suppliers across the Northern Marianas — including Saipan, eighteen kilometres to the north — to bring fresh, regionally relevant ingredients into your menu wherever the schedule permits.

Do you cater crew meals separately from the passenger order?

Yes. Crew meals are planned, packed, and labelled independently of the passenger service, with nutritional balance and regulatory rest requirements in mind. They can be ordered as part of the same brief or arranged separately.

What if my departure time changes after the order is confirmed?

Call or message your dedicated contact immediately. Our 24/7 operations desk will adjust logistics and communicate any impact on fresh items. We hold aircraft catering to the highest cold-chain standard and will advise if a significant delay requires a revised pack.

Can you support onward catering if my routing continues to Guam or Saipan?

Our worldwide network covers both Saipan and Guam, as well as Rota Island in the Marianas chain. We can brief and coordinate uplifts at multiple stops from a single order, maintaining consistent quality and a single point of contact throughout.

Private jet menu for Tinian Island

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

The Altitude Dining kitchenNorthern Mariana Islands

To start

Chamorro Kelaguen of Reef Fish

Finely diced fresh white reef fish cured in calamansi juice, folded with toasted coconut, spring onion, and bird's-eye chilli. Served chilled in a sealed portion — no onboard preparation required.

Cold main

Seared Ahi Tuna with Green Papaya Slaw

Pacific yellowfin tuna, lightly seared and sliced, resting on a crisp green papaya and cucumber slaw dressed with lime and sesame. Balanced, clean, and well-suited to the first hours of a long Pacific sector.

Hot main

Braised Short Rib with Red Rice and Pickled Daikon

Slow-braised beef short rib glazed with a soy and annatto reduction, plated over Chamorro-style red rice and finished with house-pickled daikon. A grounding hot course for evening departures.

Morning

Coconut Congee with Soft Egg and Crispy Shallots

Silky rice porridge cooked in coconut milk, topped with a slow-cooked egg, toasted shallots, and a light ginger oil. Comforting, easy to reheat, and suited to early-morning island departures.

Pâtisserie

Pandan Chiffon with Mango Cream

A light, fragrant chiffon sponge scented with pandan, filled with a soft Alphonso mango cream and finished with a dusting of toasted coconut. Individually boxed and travel-stable.

To finish

Dark Chocolate and Sea Salt Tart

A short-crust shell filled with a dark Valrhona ganache, set firm for travel and finished with Marianas sea salt flakes. Portioned individually and chilled for easy cabin service.

Inflight Catering · Tinian Island

Private aviation catering at TIQ

Tinian sits quietly in the Northern Mariana Islands chain, eighteen kilometres south of Saipan and a world apart from the pressures of continental aviation. The island's compact scale is deceptive: its airfield carries a full 2,621-metre paved runway capable of accommodating substantial aircraft, and the surrounding waters supply some of the Pacific's cleanest seafood year-round. The region's culinary character draws on Chamorro and Carolinian traditions — coconut, taro, fresh reef fish, citrus-laced kelaguen — alongside the broader Pacific-Rim influences that flow through Saipan's markets to the north. We work with trusted regional suppliers to bring those flavours aboard, sourcing across the Northern Marianas whenever lead times allow.

Regional Catering Menu · Tinian Island

Tinian Island inflight catering

Chamorro kelaguen — finely worked chicken or seafood cured in lemon juice and folded with fresh coconut and chilli — translates beautifully into an elegant cold starter that requires no heat on board and holds impeccably through the early stages of a Pacific crossing. We pair it with red rice prepared in the traditional style, finishing portions individually so service requires no galley effort from the crew. For longer sectors out of Tinian, we build menus around the grilled and marinated proteins that define island cooking: fresh ahi tuna, local reef fish, and pork preparations drawn from the fiesta traditions still very much alive across the Marianas. Each dish is portioned, chilled, and packed to galley-ready standards — labelled, sequenced, and accompanied by full crew handling notes.
