He answers directly, adjusts for late passenger changes where lead time allows, and packs every item with reheating instructions and allergen detail written on the label.

Jet catering Metlakatla production kitchen
Charter schedules from Metlakatla typically follow a pattern tied to community access and seasonal demand, with departures concentrated around mid-morning and early afternoon slots. Your private aviation catering order is timed against that rhythm, with cooking scheduled to your departure window rather than a fixed production run. The kitchen preparing your order operates dedicated cold rooms for protein, dairy, and pre-plated assemblies, with separate posts for pâtisserie and garde-manger work. Each tray is sealed after plating, logged for allergen content, and held under cold-chain control until handover. For business aviation catering at ANN, lead time reflects same-day capacity: orders confirmed by early morning are typically ready airside within the slot you've requested, with labelling that tracks every component back to batch and prep time.
