Each menu on board the VistaJet is meticulously created, with each dish created for high-altitude eating – taking into account the impact of elevation, decreased humidity, and greater noise and movement on tastes and senses. In fact, cabin air reduces the aroma that, together with taste, makes flavor, up to 80% of what people think is taste is, in fact, smell. At 45,000 feet, a VistaJet Global 7500 aircraft has an equivalent air pressure of only 4,500 feet and a controlled humidity level. However, a distinction can still be made. Which is why VistaJet have carefully reinvented their air dining experience to deliver tastes and sensations that work in the sky

“We have been on a journey to transform the private dining experience in the air — to make it something to savor”, says Diego Sabino, Vice President of Private Dining at VistaJet. “Simple things, big flavors and the best ingredients prepared and cooked to perfection will always travel well. We have explored the art and science of dining, so our Members can cherish time together on board, with the right taste, whatever the occasion.”

 In an aircraft, taste buds can be desensitized, as the perception of salt and sweetness is reduced by 30%; and the humidity in an aircraft it can be as low as 20% or less (humidity in the home is typically around 45%). So, even top chefs need to change the way they think about food that will be served on board a flight.
