What's a Flight Kitchen? A professional operation built specifically for aviation—understanding aircraft galleys, altitude effects on food, international flight regulations, FBO protocols, and aviation timing. They speak pilot, know what TODC means, understand slot times cost money, and have relationships with line service. Their entire existence revolves around putting food on aircraft safely, legally, and on time. They're part of the aviation ecosystem.

​

What's "Inflight Catering"? Often just a marketing term used by any restaurant, caterer, or food service that decided to accept aircraft orders. They might make good food, but they don't understand aviation. They treat your flight like a regular catering delivery that happens to go to an airport. No knowledge of aircraft types, no understanding of customs requirements, no concept of how different a G650 galley is from a Citation. They're food service trying to play aviation.

​

The Bottom Line: A Flight Kitchen lives in your world—they breathe aviation, understand the stakes, and operate by aviation rules. "Inflight Catering" is often just a ground caterer who delivers to airports. It's the difference between someone who belongs on the ramp and someone who needs directions to find it.

Délicieux France Flight Kitchens: We don't just deliver to aviation. We ARE aviation. Every system, every process, every person is trained in and dedicated to the unique demands of private flight. When you need a Flight Kitchen, not just someone who claims they do "inflight catering," you know who to call.

​

The difference? One is built for aviation. The other is just visiting.
