Tarapoa private jet catering menu

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

The Altitude Dining kitchenEcuador

Inflight Catering · Tarapoa

Private jet catering in Tarapoa

The Sucumbíos province surrounding Tarapoa is one of Ecuador's most biodiverse — and most logistically demanding — territories. Dense rainforest, river crossings and limited road infrastructure mean that every catering order reaching SETR has been planned with the same care as the aircraft operation itself. We treat that reality as a brief, not an obstacle. Fresh produce sourced from Coca, roughly 82 kilometres to the north-west, anchors our Tarapoa menus. Tropical fruits, river fish and Amazonian herbs can move from market to galley-ready packaging within hours, provided lead times are confirmed in advance. For perishables that require a longer supply chain, our network ensures cold-chain integrity from origin to ramp.

Regional Catering Menu · Tarapoa

Fresh catering for Tarapoa flights

The Amazon basin affords ingredients rarely seen in conventional inflight catering: hearts of palm harvested young, chontacuro — Amazonian palm-worm grub, a regional delicacy for adventurous principals — slow-cooked cecina (dried and smoked meat), and maito, a traditional preparation of fresh river fish wrapped and cooked in bijao leaves. Our kitchen team adapts these traditions to cabin standards without stripping their character. Where principals prefer international menus over regional ones, we build straightforward, well-executed dishes — ceviches drawn from coastal Ecuadorian technique, chilled proteins travelling at correct temperature, hot mains in calibrated airline-grade containers. Kosher orders are fulfilled to full certification and require a minimum 24-hour lead time from confirmation.

Frequently asked

We use a combination of regional procurement — primarily from Coca, approximately 82 kilometres away — and our wider Ecuadorian and South American network. Supply routing is planned at the time of order confirmation, not improvised on the day.
