Catering to your aircraft in Marsa al Brega.
HLMB is a working coastal field at 50 feet, not a resort terminal. Our former flight attendants pack for that: crew boxes, a guest menu if you need one, passed to the aircraft through your handling agent.
We know the galley, the diet card and the 5 a.m. re-plate — because we lived them. So we built the caterer we always wished we could call.
Fourteen years on VIP and head-of-state cabins. Can plate for twelve in a G650 galley and still land it hot.
The one who reads every diet card twice. If it says no cross-contact, it means no cross-contact.
Answers at 5 a.m. when the leg moved overnight. Same-day swaps are her love language.
Al Wahat District and the Gulf of Sirte coast give Marsa al Brega a table of its own, and a private jet menu for HLMB leans on it. The inflight menu is built from local specialities: lamb and chicken grilled over charcoal, bazin, a barley dough served with a tomato and lamb sauce, couscous with vegetables, and dates from the oases that sit at the end of nearly every Libyan meal. Private jet food from this part of Libya is generous and warm, so we pack the sauces apart and let the cabin crew re-plate in the galley. Grilled fish from the Mediterranean coast works as a cold plate when the sea has been kind.
Libya's coast carries a clear food identity, and private jet food at Marsa al Brega draws on Al Wahat District rather than a generic international card. Local specialities such as bazin, couscous, chermoula-style fish and date sweets suit an inflight menu because they hold well and travel in separate containers. The private jet menu for LMQ sets the heavier hot dishes beside lighter cold ones, so passengers can choose after a long sector. We keep sauces and breads apart and mark every tray by seat.

Marsa al Brega Airport (HLMB / LMQ) sits at 50 feet on the Gulf of Sirte coast, a field built around oil-sector traffic in Libya's Al Wahat District, and private jet catering here is planned around that rhythm of crew changes, charters and short turnarounds. We write inflight catering for the galley you actually have, in-flight catering that survives a desert-coast climate, and aviation catering that the handling agent can walk to the aircraft. Business aviation catering, executive jet catering and diplomatic flight catering all follow the same brief, and cabin crew meals ride on the same order.
Business jet catering at Marsa al Brega is often a crew change or a short rotation for an operator, not a long guest sector. Corporate jet catering here means a clear brief: who flies, how many, what the galley holds. VIP flight catering and charter flight catering follow the same order, and luxury inflight catering is a private jet chef's bespoke menu built from lamb, fish and dates.
Official movements through HLMB need a menu agreed by protocol first. We deliver government flight catering and VIP aviation catering with every tray traceable, and head of state flight catering or state visit aircraft catering is handled by a small, named team.
Special meals at Marsa al Brega are a procedure adapted to the local kitchen, not a promise on a label. Libyan cooking is halal by default, so halal inflight meals are straightforward; kosher requests are handled as sealed, separately prepared meals. Vegan and gluten free plates need care because couscous, bazin and flatbread are wheat-based, and allergen free requests are written against those dishes, with nuts watched in date and sesame sweets. Kids meals are kept plain and mild.

Their own menu, nothing to cut at altitude.
Vegan, low-carb, light — composed, never compromised.
Ask for crew meals at HLMB and we pack them as separate boxes, not as an afterthought to the guest order. Flight crew meals, pilot meals and cockpit meals are on request and invoiced; crew catering for a turnaround stays light, crew meal boxes carry a seat label, and different meals for pilots are available when captain and first officer should not share a dish.
At Marsa al Brega, FBO catering is delivered to the FBO and on to the aircraft. Catering delivery to the FBO is coordinated with the general aviation terminal, and ground handling catering follows the access your handling agent arranges. Handling agent catering means we agree the handover point with them first.
At Marsa al Brega the aircraft type decides how galley catering reaches the cabin: a light jet takes trays by hand through the door, while a larger cabin may need a high loader for airside catering delivery. We confirm the type and the galley layout first, then pack for it. Aircraft provisioning on HLMB follows the access your handling agent can arrange on the apron.

Marsa al Brega Airport serves an oil town on the Gulf of Sirte in Al Wahat District, and airport catering here follows the pace of that industry. General aviation arrives through a modest terminal, FBO services are limited, and ground handling services depend on the agent on the day.
Business aviation hub is too grand a phrase for Marsa al Brega, but inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering for operators, business aviation catering for charters, executive jet catering for small groups and diplomatic flight catering for official visits are all written here. Cabin crew meals are added as a separate line to that same booking.
Libya controls food import tightly, so provisions for flights through Marsa al Brega are prepared locally and handed over at the FBO. Customs inspect sealed trays through the handling agent, which is why labels and declarations match the order exactly.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“One detail shaped our order at LMQ: a revised passenger count, alongside a request for chicken skewers with a couscous salad for 7 passengers. The crew provisions supplied by The Galley Girls were straightforward to check against the written menu before the cabin handover. This experience of private jet catering services gave us a useful reference for managing storage requirements on another departure. The fruit plates were also listed clearly, which made it easier to pass instructions between crew members during preparation.”
“A request for chicken skewers with a couscous salad, 11 passengers, and a family lunch request: that was our brief for the departure at Marsa al Brega Airport. I want a private jet catering company to understand packing arrangement, and this order gave us a useful starting point. I needed the salads checked against the revised brief; The Galley Girls answered without sending us through another lengthy exchange. The canapés remained as originally requested, which was reassuring when we checked the latest version with operations.”
“Packing a breakfast basket with individual preserves for 10 passengers at HLMB needed careful thought, especially given a tight boarding window. When comparing private jet catering companies, I would look closely at packing arrangement after this experience. I gave The Galley Girls our storage brief and asked for the crew provisions to arrive in clearly marked packs. I could hand the sauces to a colleague with a short explanation instead of unpacking the whole order.”
It depends on who is actually on board. An empty-cabin leg into Marsa al Brega needs two or three crew boxes, which keeps the cost of private jet catering low. Fresh coastal fish or a full grilled platter for guests costs more, and we quote it per menu.
Aircraft type comes first: the size of the galley, the oven, the cold storage. From that we decide how far ahead a Marsa al Brega menu should be set. Orders arriving late are still handled, in a simpler form if the galley is tight.
Customs on a special meal request means one thing: the tray must be clearly identified and sealed. A kosher, halal, allergen free or kids meal arrives labelled by seat, and the handling agent presents it for inspection. State the requirement early so nothing is opened in front of an officer.
Airside access sets the rules. The handling agent clears vehicles and people; we deliver meals to the FBO or plane-side, in boxes marked for crew and for guests. Food you carry yourself needs the agent's agreement first.
Not as a rule. Catering is booked and invoiced on top of the private jet charter, never inside it. Customs and import regulations in Libya mean we prepare nearby and hand the meals to the handling agent.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
