Lucas Bernard oversees every government and head-of-state flight catering order that departs KNQ, maintaining protocol and manifest confidentiality from brief to boarding. Delegation volumes are portioned discreetly, dietary requirements are labelled without reference to the passenger, and handover is coordinated to meet the security standards your handling agent sets. You reach him directly, and he confirms what can be achieved within the lead time and the galley limits of your aircraft type. The menu he proposes is built around what you need served, when it boards, and how your crew will finish it in flight.

Background

Lucas Bernard is a classically trained Private Jet Chef with over fifteen years of experience crafting refined cuisine at altitude. His specialty lies in creating elegant French-inspired menus that seamlessly adapt to diverse culinary preferences while maintaining exceptional presentation and flavor in the unique challenges of flight.

How the production week is organised for departures from KNQ

Slot pressure at smaller fields can tighten the window between confirmation and wheels-up, yet your order is timed to the departure list you provide. Lead time for a standard order is typically twenty-four hours; shorter notice is absorbed where the kitchen schedule and the available crew allow it. To order private jet catering, send the passenger count, departure time, and any allergen or dietary requirements; a private jet catering quote returns within two hours.

The Koné kitchen

Jet catering Koné—prepared in Nouméa

Aircraft operating into KNQ work within remote-field constraints: limited ground-handling windows and advance coordination required for apron access. Your private jet catering answers that reality with a kitchen preparing meals timed to your departure slot, not a fixed production window. The facility holds dedicated cold rooms for proteins, dairy, and pre-plated assemblies; pâtisserie and garde-manger posts handle same-day prep from seasonal produce. Cooking begins once your ETA and PAX count confirm, plating is sealed immediately after final assembly, and cold-chain integrity is documented on every label. Allergen protocols are traced per dish. Business aviation catering for Koné Airport is built around the slot you hold, the menu you brief, and the standards you expect—delivered airside in temperature-controlled transport that meets your crew at the ramp.

The menu

Private jet catering menu at Koné Airport

Breakfast service, cold plates that hold across a long sector, mains that reheat in the galley oven, and crew meals on the same order. Every item is portioned to the seat count you provide, and allergen information is printed on each label so that your cabin crew can answer a passenger question without guessing. You specify what should be served cold, what needs the oven, and what sits at ambient, and the kitchen packs accordingly.

Seared tuna with green beans and caper dressing

Served cold, holds four hours under refrigeration, contains fish and mustard.

Braised chicken with root vegetables and thyme jus

Reheats in a galley oven at 160°C for twelve minutes, contains celery.

Dark chocolate tart with almond crust

Served at cabin temperature, pre-sliced, contains nuts, gluten, and dairy.

Three of the dishes the Koné Airport kitchen cooks. Allergen detail is confirmed in writing with your quote.

Every item is packed with reheating and plating notes for your cabin.

Airside delivery

Airside delivery and handover for flight catering at Koné

If the slot moves, the delivery schedule moves with it. Temperature-controlled vehicles carry VIP flight catering and charter flight catering on the same airside run, and a badged driver coordinates with your handling agent to meet the revised departure time. Handover takes place ramp-side at the aircraft door or at the FBO you nominate. For large cabins, a high loader is confirmed at the time of order where available, serving galley doors at height. Government and head-of-state flights receive the same airside protocol, with manifest confidentiality maintained and delegation volumes handled discreetly throughout the handover sequence.

Seasonal produce sourced near Koné
Inflight catering — New Caledonia

Inflight menus built around what the season offers at KNQ

You no longer need to choose from a fixed list. Your private jet menu reflects what is available when the order is placed, and the inflight menu adapts as supply changes. The kitchen preparing your order sources fresh produce to match your departure date, and adjusts portions and presentation to suit cabin storage and galley capacity. Coordination with your FBO ensures that delivery timing aligns with fuelling and pre-flight checks. A badged driver confirms handover at the aircraft door or the FBO desk you nominate, so the cold chain holds and your crew receives exactly what was briefed.
