Catering is one of those critical services that are infinitely variable and full of pitfalls.  When it's done correctly you might get a nod of appreciation.  When catering is done incorrectly, at a minimum, you will hear about it for the duration of the flight, and most likely well after the trip is over.

There are a number of factors one has to take in to account to do a good job in this area:

    - The duration of the flight and what is appropriate for that flight time. 

    - Number of people to feed and who they are.

    - Cultural, ethnic and religious considerations.

    - Preferences of the people that will be having the meals.

    - Cost.

    - Lastly, and just as important as all the other factors:  It has to taste good!

In addition to the basic meal catering, is a liquor service appropriate, and how about the table service?  You might have the best catering in the world, but if you don't have a table service on the airplane and there is no way to eat that great meal except with your hands, then you will have a big problem.  Are some sort of disposable plates, knives, forks, spoons and table linen required.
