Four Steps to Exceptional In-Home Dining
Request a Menu
Tell us about your flight: departure airport, date and time, passenger count, dietary preferences, and any allergies or restrictions. Have a cuisine direction in mind? Let us know. Prefer to leave it to us? We'll recommend based on flight duration and time of day.
Approve Your Custom Menu
Within two hours, we'll send a tailored menu proposal for your review. You'll see every dish, course by course, with descriptions and pricing. Want to swap something? Adjust portions? Add a course? We refine until it's exactly right.
We Prepare & Package
Our chefs prepare your meals fresh in our NYC kitchen using 100% organic, pasture-raised, and wild-caught ingredients. Every dish is packaged for altitude—containers that reheat evenly, insulated bags that hold temperature, elegant presentation that reflects the quality inside.
We Deliver to Your Aircraft
We deliver directly to your FBO, timed to your departure. Your crew receives everything ready to serve—meals, beverages, serviceware, reheating instructions, and any special requests. You board, relax, and enjoy.
Services We Offer
Private Chef Services for Every Occasion
Custom Menus
Every flight gets a tailored menu—not a template. We design around your passengers, flight duration, time of day, and preferences. From light bites for a short hop to multi-course dining for transatlantic travel, we build what fits.
Chef-Prepared Meals
All meals are prepared fresh by trained chefs in our own kitchen—not outsourced to airport commissaries or third-party caterers. The same culinary standards behind our meal delivery and private chef services apply to every in-flight order.
Altitude-Ready Packaging
We package for performance at 40,000 feet. Containers that reheat evenly in galley ovens. Insulated bags that maintain temperature during transport. Elegant presentation from the moment it's unwrapped.
Complete Service
Meals, snacks, beverages, serviceware, napkins, utensils—we provide everything needed for a seamless in-flight experience. Your crew serves; we handle the rest.
Menus for Every Flight
Breakfast & Brunch
Early departures, overnight arrivals, or mid-morning flights. Fresh pastries, egg dishes, seasonal fruits, smoothies, and lighter options to start the day right.
Lunch & Dinner
Multi-course meals designed for your flight duration. Appetizers, mains, sides, and desserts—plated or family-style, refined or relaxed, tailored to your preferences.
Light Bites & Snacks
Shorter flights, mid-flight refreshments, or between-meal grazing. Charcuterie, crudités, dips, nuts, fresh fruit, and small bites that travel well.
Specialty Dietary
Keto, paleo, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, allergy-specific—tell us your requirements and we build around them. No passenger left with limited options.
