How far in advance should I order?

We recommend a minimum of 24 hours for standard menus. Puerto Deseado's remoteness means some specialist ingredients require collection from regional suppliers, so earlier notice always allows greater menu depth. Kosher catering requires a minimum of 48 hours to ensure proper certified preparation.

Which handler will receive the catering at the airport?

We deliver to whichever handler holds your aircraft on the day. Please confirm handler details when you place your order and we will coordinate directly with them to ensure a clean, timely handover.

Can you cater for crew meals separately from the passenger cabin?

Yes. Crew meals are quoted and packed independently, with appropriate labelling and galley placement instructions. We treat crew nutrition as seriously as passenger menus — fatigue management on long Patagonian sectors starts with good food.

Do you offer Patagonian specialities rather than generic inflight menus?

That is precisely our approach. Local centolla, Patagonian toothfish, and salt-grass lamb are among the regional anchors we work with. Menus are built around what is genuinely available and in season at the time of your flight, not pulled from a fixed catalogue.

Can you handle catering for a multi-leg itinerary across Patagonia?

Yes. Our worldwide network means we can coordinate uplifts across multiple airports on a single itinerary. If your routing includes other Patagonian stops — such as Comodoro Rivadavia or Río Gallegos — your single point of contact manages the full sequence.

What packaging standards do you use for galley delivery?

All items are delivered galley-ready in airline-standard packaging, clearly labelled by course, passenger, and any dietary requirement. Temperature-sensitive dishes are packed to maintain safe holding temperatures from handover through to service at altitude.

The chef's menu at PUD

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

The Altitude Dining kitchenArgentina

To start

Centolla Cocktail, Coastal Herb Cream

Patagonian king crab picked from the shell, dressed with a light cream infused with local coastal herbs and a touch of preserved lemon. Served chilled in a ceramic cup, galley-ready.

To start

Smoked Merluza Negra, Potato Blini, Crème Fraîche

Cold-smoked Patagonian toothfish sliced thin over warm potato blini with crème fraîche and micro-greens. A considered balance of the region's signature fish and understated elegance.

Hot main

Salt-Grass Lamb Loin, Andean Herb Crust, Root Purée

Rack-cut loin from free-range Patagonian estancia lamb, finished with a dried Andean herb crust and paired with a smooth celeriac and potato purée. Packed for gentle galley reheating.

Hot main

Toothfish Fillet, Saffron Broth, Fennel

A generous fillet of merluza negra poached in a delicate saffron and white wine broth, with shaved fennel and a spoonful of Patagonian sea salt. Clean, mineral, and deeply local.

Cold main

Patagonian Lamb Carpaccio, Pecorino, Rocket

Thinly sliced cured lamb shoulder from a Santa Cruz estancia, plated with aged pecorino shavings, wild rocket, and a drizzle of cold-pressed Argentine olive oil.

Pâtisserie

Dulce de Leche Alfajor, Dark Chocolate Glaze

A single, hand-finished alfajor with slow-cooked dulce de leche centre and a thin bittersweet chocolate exterior. A quiet nod to Argentine confectionery at its most assured.

Inflight Catering · Puerto Deseado

Puerto Deseado private jet catering

Puerto Deseado sits on one of the most sheltered natural rias on the Patagonian coast, a working port town whose identity is built on cold-water seafood and the extraordinary marine wildlife of Ría Deseado. That proximity to source is something we take seriously: local fish markets and regional producers supply a coastline where king crab, sea bass, and southern king prawn are not luxury imports but daily catch. The surrounding steppe is equally generous in its own austere way. Patagonian lamb raised on salt-grass pasture has a mineral depth that sets it apart from any other provenance in the southern hemisphere. Our culinary team sources directly from estancias and coastal suppliers, building menus that reflect where your aircraft actually is — not a generic catering template applied from afar.

Regional Catering Menu · Puerto Deseado

Inflight catering menu for Puerto Deseado

The cold, nutrient-rich waters off Santa Cruz province produce shellfish and fin-fish of exceptional quality. Centolla — Patagonian king crab — is the standout, its sweet, dense flesh lending itself equally to refined cold presentations and gently warmed galley dishes. Alongside it, locally landed merluza negra (Patagonian toothfish) offers a buttery, high-fat profile that holds beautifully through the temperature management required for private jet catering at altitude. On land, the region's free-range Patagonian lamb and artisan charcuterie from small Santa Cruz producers give our chefs substantial material to work with. We build dishes around these anchors, supporting them with Andean herbs, preserved lemons from the northwest, and Argentine cheeses selected for cabin-friendly texture and flavour stability. Every menu is composed to arrive in the galley exactly as intended — nothing speculative, nothing sourced from a generic warehouse catalogue.
