Three of us. All ex VIP cabin crew.

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.

The local tableCooked so it travels

Regional dishes of Sévaré for jet catering at MZI

Around Mopti Region the river sets the table, and a private jet menu for Mopti Airport reads accordingly. Fish from the Niger, capitaine in particular, travels well as a chilled fillet with sauce apart, while grilled fish is better finished in your oven than cooked ahead and left to soften in a drawer. Local specialities include millet couscous, rice with groundnut sauce, tigadèguèna, and fonio, a fine grain that re-plates cleanly. An inflight menu for the plateau at Sévaré often adds brochettes of beef or lamb, kept in a sealed tray, and bissap and ginger juices in sealed bottles. Private jet food here is simple and generous; Mopti Region cooking rewards honest seasoning, so we pack the pepper sauce separately for each seat. We shape private jet platters from mango, watermelon and dates, gourmet inflight meals around the fish and the grain, and private jet snacks from roasted peanuts and dried fruit.

Mopti Region is built on water and grain, and the local specialities show it. For a private jet menu at Mopti Airport we start from the Niger: capitaine fillets, smoked fish for those who like it, rice cooked the way Sévaré kitchens do it, with a sauce kept in its own pot. Millet, fonio and groundnut stews give an inflight menu with real character; they re-heat well in a galley oven and hold their texture on a plate. Private jet food from this part of Mali also means mangoes in season, watermelon, and sweet tea service, packed so nothing leaks into the drawer. Gourmet inflight meals can sit beside private jet platters of grilled lamb and vegetables, and private jet snacks stay dry: peanuts, dates, shortbread. Sévaré visitors usually leave with an opinion on the fish; we prefer that your crew serve it properly.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Mopti Airport (GAMB)

Mopti Airport sits at 906 feet on the plateau at Sévaré, where the road to Dogon country and the Niger inland delta both begin, and its business aviation traffic follows the dry season. Private jet catering here means packing for galleys that expect dust, heat and long ground waits: sturdy cold plates, sauces in their own pots, a hot course that finishes in your oven. Our former VIP flight attendants cover inflight catering for charter and corporate flights, in-flight catering for humanitarian and survey crews, aviation catering for the aircraft and cabin crew meals when you request them. Executive jet catering and business aviation catering use the same brief as elsewhere, and diplomatic flight catering is cleared through protocol before anything is cooked.

Business aviationOur core

VIP flight and private jet catering at Mopti Airport (GAMB)

Business jet catering at Mopti Airport is usually built around a short brief: the aircraft type, the headcount and the slot. Corporate jet catering and VIP flight catering follow the same rule, and charter flight catering for humanitarian or survey operators is handled the same way. Luxury inflight catering here is Niger fish, fonio and mango, plated by your crew; a private jet chef writes a bespoke menu around what is in season in Mopti Region.

State & royalDiscretion, protocol

Private jet catering for government and royal flights at Mopti Airport (MZI)

Government flight catering at Mopti Airport runs through protocol, not through a menu. Head of state flight catering and VIP aviation catering for official movements are cleared before anything is cooked, with a named team, traceability and discretion. State visit aircraft catering into Sévaré is rare, and when it happens we pack for the exact aircraft and hand it over to the handling agent.

Special meals

Dietary requirements and aviation catering at Mopti Airport (GAMB)

At Mopti Airport, special meals are a procedure built around local cooking. Groundnut sauces and fish stocks are where allergens hide in Sévaré kitchens, so we cook allergen free dishes on separate boards and pack them in their own box. Kosher and halal requests are agreed with your handling agent in advance; halal is common in Mopti Region and straightforward to source. Vegan and gluten free meals lean on millet, fonio and rice, which suit the area naturally, and kids meals stay mild, with the pepper sauce left out.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Flight crew meals on request at Mopti Airport

On a long day at GAMB the crew eats last, so crew meals are packed sturdy. Flight crew meals and crew catering are ordered with the trip on request and charged normally; pilot meals and cockpit meals can be two different dishes, and crew meal boxes carry a CREW label. Different meals for pilots are standard practice and we follow them, as we do cabin crew meals for the rest of the team.

FBO catering and handling agent delivery at Mopti Airport

FBO catering at Mopti Airport means catering delivery to the FBO on your slot, through the handling agent's airside route. The general aviation terminal at Sévaré is small, so ground handling catering is a short handover to your agent. Handling agent catering is coordinated by phone or email, 24/7.

High loaderLarge cabins, bizliners

Aircraft provisioning and airport catering at Mopti Airport (GAMB)

The type of aircraft decides the loading at Mopti Airport. A light turboprop or midsize jet needs only a trolley and a short airside run, while a larger cabin may need a high loader for the galley door, and your handling agent will tell us what is available on the apron. Galley catering is packed for the oven and drawers you actually have, and airside catering delivery follows the handler's access rules for GAMB. We call this aircraft provisioning: boxes sealed, labelled by seat and dish, stacked in the order the crew will open them.

About the airportGAMB / MZI

About Mopti Airport: business aviation and airport catering

Mopti Airport serves Sévaré and the Mopti Region, at the heart of the Niger inland delta. It is a small civil field at 906 feet, used by regional carriers, charter operators and humanitarian flights.

Business aviation

Airport catering here is simple and local. General aviation at Mopti is mostly charter, survey and humanitarian work, and FBO services and ground handling services are provided through your handling agent. As a business aviation hub it is modest, but it covers inflight catering, in-flight catering, aviation catering and business aviation catering for operators; executive jet catering and diplomatic flight catering are cleared in advance, and cabin crew meals are ordered on request.

Customs & food import

Mali applies its own customs and food import rules, and your handling agent will confirm what is required for a given flight. Meals packed in-country avoid import questions entirely, which is why most operators order locally.

★★★★★LARGE CABIN
“As the person coordinating vegetable tartlets and a dessert selection for 12 passengers at MZI, I needed an arrangement that considered two separate meal services. We described our serving sequence to The Galley Girls and asked for the desserts to be packed accordingly. The galley preparation stood out more than any sales pitch about aviation catering services. We left the snack boxes stored until needed, which kept the first service manageable and reduced unnecessary handling.”
Antonio C. | Chief cabin officer — private jet

★★★★☆GOVERNMENT
“Getting fresh fruit and breakfast pastries ready for 11 guests at Mopti Airport required an order that accounted for a family lunch request. I want an aviation catering company to understand final order confirmation, and this order gave us a useful starting point. The Galley Girls confirmed the handover contact and identified the crew provisions, making the catering delivery easier for our team to track. Knowing where the starters were packed meant the crew could begin the relevant checks as soon as the order arrived.”
Pedro X. | Government flight manager

★★★★★CREW MEALS
“Despite a tight boarding window, we wanted the 11 guests at GAMB to enjoy fresh fruit and breakfast pastries without a complicated cabin service. When comparing aviation catering companies, I would look closely at storage requirements after this experience. The Galley Girls kept the desserts separate from the finishing elements, which gave us control over the final presentation. The fruit plates stayed together in one group, so another crew member could follow the same plating sequence.”

Asked before every GAMB slotAsked by crews
How much does private jet catering cost at Mopti Airport?+

Cost at Sévaré moves with the departure slot and the length of the turnaround. A short stop with cold plates sits at the lower end; a long ground wait with hot courses and crew meals costs more. Niger river fish and fresh fruit are the items that shift the total, and everything else is priced as at any airport we serve.

What lead time does private jet catering need at Sévaré?+

What makes a Mopti order easy is the handling agent and airside access, so tell us who is receiving the aircraft and we plan around that gate. Last-minute orders are handled, and when fresh river fish is not available the dish changes rather than the slot.

What do customs mean for inflight catering into Mopti Airport?+

Customs interest depends on where the food was packed. Meals prepared in Mali for your slot travel without import paperwork, which suits a tight turnaround at GAMB. Foreign provisions on board are what draw questions, so declare them to your handling agent before landing.

Can you bring food on board at Mopti Airport?+

You can, subject to your handling agent and to Mali's import rules, and anything foreign should be declared. A local order avoids the question: it is packed for your galley, labelled by seat and carried through the airside route the handler already uses at Sévaré.

Is catering part of a charter into Mopti Airport?+

No. Catering is not part of the charter: whatever the slot at GAMB, it is ordered separately and invoiced on its own. A long wait on the ground leaves room for hot courses and crew meals on request; a quick turnaround usually means chilled plates and a lighter order.
