Which FBOs at Telluride Regional Airport (TEX/KTEX) do you deliver to?

We deliver inflight catering at KTEX to the single fixed-base operator on the field and coordinate planeside handoff when apron access and aircraft positioning allow. Delivery instructions are confirmed when you place the order, and our drivers work directly with your handling agent to ensure seamless uplift.

What is the shortest notice you can typically accept at Telluride Regional Airport?

Lead time varies with menu complexity, passenger count, and seasonal demand. During ski season and event weekends, earlier notice helps us secure ingredients and coordinate delivery around apron congestion. We'll confirm feasibility when you reach out, balancing your departure slot with kitchen and transport capacity.

Can you accommodate specific dietary and allergen requirements?

Yes. Gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, kosher, and allergen-controlled menus are prepared with separate utensils and labelled for each passenger. Provide dietary details when ordering so Chef Imani Hayes can adapt recipes, source suitable ingredients, and ensure every tray meets the brief without cross-contact.

Do you offer high-loader service at Telluride Regional Airport?

High-loader service for aviation catering at KTEX is available where aircraft type, apron layout, and ground equipment permit. We confirm availability at the time of order, working with your handling agent to arrange the lift when your cabin door height and ramp positioning support it.

How do I place an order for a flight departing Telluride Regional Airport (TEX/KTEX)?

Contact us with tail number, departure time, passenger count, and any dietary needs. We'll propose a menu suited to your sector, confirm timing with the kitchen and transport schedule, and coordinate delivery directly with your FBO or handling agent at Telluride Regional to ensure the order is airside when you need it.

Airside delivery

Airside delivery at Telluride Regional Airport

We handle jet catering at KTEX with badged drivers, refrigerated vehicles, and confirmed airside access through the airport's security protocol. Telluride Regional's compact apron and single FBO mean deliveries are coordinated directly with ground handlers, often planeside when ramp space allows. High-loader service is available where the aircraft type and apron positioning permit, confirmed at the time of order rather than assumed. Each carrier is labelled with tail number, departure time, and stowage zone so flight attendants can load without unpacking every tray. Temperature logs travel with the delivery, and our drivers brief FBO staff on any hot items requiring galley reheating. For large-cabin aircraft departing during ski season or event weekends, we coordinate timing with fuel trucks and catering uplift to avoid apron queues that can delay pushback.

Inflight catering — United States

Private jet menu planning for TEX departures

TEX departures follow the mountain calendar closely. Your inflight menu adjusts as the season turns: heavier preparations through winter months, cold plates and lighter proteins when the temperature rises. Produce is sourced fresh to the order date, and what arrives at the market that week shapes what can be served in the cabin. Early-morning departures favour breakfast boards and pastries that hold at cabin temperature; afternoon legs take mains that reheat in the galley. The private jet menu is written to your passenger count and timed to your slot.

Local calendar

Event calendar at Telluride Regional Airport

December through March brings sustained ski-season traffic to Telluride Regional Airport, with morning departures, apron queues, and tighter PPR windows that require earlier catering coordination. Late June into July sees festival-linked charter peaks, increased slot congestion, and higher demand for high-loader service when larger aircraft fill the ramp. For flight attendants and ops agents, these weeks mean advancing your order timeline, confirming airside delivery slots early, and briefing ground handlers on catering uplift sequence. We build seasonal volume into our production and transport schedules so your private jet catering reaches the apron on time, even when the calendar is full.

What we do about it

Families travelling together through December to March shift private jet catering toward varied meal formats—children's portions alongside adult menus, dietary requests across generations. Business aviation catering orders typically include breakfast baskets timed to early departures and crew meals staged for repositioning legs once primary passengers disembark in Aspen.
