Florence's PPR can tighten during trade weeks, so orders are confirmed at least the day before to secure both kitchen capacity and airside delivery slots. A recurring request from this airport is Tuscan vegetable antipasti—grilled zucchini, white beans, sun-dried tomato—plated cold and paired with the chef's truffle vegetable tart when cabin service allows for a two-course sequence. The combination holds well on sectors to northern Europe and the eastern Mediterranean, where flight time exceeds ninety minutes and galley reheating is either limited or unnecessary. The chef adjusts portion size and garnish restraint to match aircraft type, passenger count and the crew's available service window between climb-out and initial descent.

Background

Costa builds each dish around the awareness that altitude mutes perception. Salt levels are calibrated higher than ground service would permit, acidity is sharpened with careful citrus or vinegar additions, and olive oil is applied as a finishing agent rather than diluted into background. The approach remains constant: assess the flight profile, adjust seasoning intensity accordingly, and confirm balance just before boarding.

How to order flight catering for a departure from FLR

FLR departures peak mid-morning and late afternoon; production schedules align with the slot list to deliver each order within the window you set. Lead time is typically twenty-four hours for a full service, twelve for amendments to an existing order. When you order private jet catering, include aircraft type, galley configuration, passenger count, and any allergen or dietary restrictions. Request a private jet catering quote through the contact form; coordination with your handling agent ensures airside handover matches your pre-flight sequence, whether at the FBO desk or ramp-side.

Badged drivers meet the aircraft door or the FBO desk according to your brief, bringing what was cooked that morning against your slot.

Airside delivery for charter and VIP flight catering at FLR

Cold-chain transport maintains core temperature from kitchen to galley door. VIP flight catering and charter flight catering for FLR are delivered on the same airside run: badged drivers coordinate handover with your FBO, timing the arrival against fuelling and pre-flight checks. For large-cabin aircraft, a high loader serves upper galley doors where available, confirmed when you order. Trays are sized to trolley rails, platters to the oven you specify, and every container is sealed until your crew opens it at altitude.

Local calendar

Trade weeks and charter peaks at Florence Airport, Peretola

When Salone del Mobile runs in April and Milan Fashion Week arrives in late February and late September, apron capacity at Florence Airport, Peretola tightens as charter and repositioning flights converge on northern Italy. PPR slots fill early, handling agents stretch thin, and high-loader availability shrinks under competing requests. For your private jet catering order, this means confirming menus and delivery windows at least two days ahead, specifying aircraft type and galley constraints up front, and building buffer into your departure schedule. Cold platters and shelf-stable items become the safer choice when ramp delays are likely, and crew briefings on reheating sequences help keep service on track even when ground operations run late.

Salone del Mobile / Design Week

AprilNearby · MilanHeavy demand
On the field

During Salone del Mobile, you should expect mandatory PPR, significantly reduced apron availability, and extended handling coordination times at Peretola due to sustained business aviation traffic throughout the week.

What we do about it

High design-industry demand

Milan Fashion Week

late Feb / late SeptNearby · MilanHeavy demand
On the field

During Milan Fashion Week, expect significantly increased business aviation traffic at Florence Airport, Peretola, with apron congestion and mandatory PPR reinforcement. Coordinate catering delivery timing closely with your handling agent to account for extended ground delays and limited ramp access.

What we do about it

Fashion industry delegations bring stylists, PR teams, and buyers on the same manifest—rarely just principals. That breadth drives private jet catering orders with multiple dietary requirements and tighter turnaround windows. We map crew meals and cabin service around your block time, not the other way round.

Periods shift year to year — confirm the date with us when you order.
