Catering to your aircraft in Ludhiana.
Ludhiana is a quiet general aviation field at 834 ft, and a trip here is usually a light jet with a small galley. We write the menu around the Punjab table: tandoor breads, dal, paneer and fresh fruit, packed for crew and handed over at your FBO.
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.
Ludhiana is Punjab's industrial city, and the table around it is built on wheat, mustard greens, dairy and a strong tandoor tradition. A private jet menu for Ludhiana starts with sarson da saag and makki di roti in winter, dal makhani, paneer tikka and chole, and in summer lassi, fresh fruit and cucumber raita. Our inflight menu for VILD keeps each dish as it travels: gravies packed separately, breads wrapped for re-plating, sweets such as gajar halwa sealed for the galley. Private jet food from Punjab is mostly vegetarian by default, and local specialities like amritsari-style fish or butter chicken travel hot in sealed trays. Private jet platters of kebabs and chutneys serve a full cabin, gourmet inflight meals suit a long sector, and private jet snacks such as roasted chana and namak pare keep a short hop simple. In Punjab, ask us for the dish and we pack it for your oven.
Punjab's cooking is generous, and the job on a Ludhiana trip is to make that generosity survive a small galley. Our private jet menu for Ludhiana leans on paneer, dal, rajma, tandoori chicken and fresh breads, while the inflight menu marks which dishes need an oven, which come with sauce apart and which are served chilled. Private jet food from this region is rich in ghee, so we offer lighter versions on request. Local specialities include sarson da saag in winter, kulfi and fruit chaat in summer, and Punjab sweets such as barfi. Private jet platters carry kebabs, naan and chutneys; gourmet inflight meals are plated for re-plating at altitude; private jet snacks cover nuts, dried fruit and savoury biscuits. Everything is packed for the aircraft and handed over at your FBO.

Ludhiana sits at 834 ft in the Punjab plains, a general aviation field where winter fog decides the schedule and wheat country sets the menu. Private jet catering here follows what a light galley can finish: tandoor breads, dal, paneer and chilled fruit, packed for the aircraft you fly. We write inflight catering and in-flight catering for VILD with the aviation catering rules of India in mind, from business aviation catering for owners to executive jet catering for charter operators. Diplomatic flight catering and cabin crew meals follow the same plan, handed to your handling agent at the FBO.
Business jet catering at Ludhiana serves textile and trade passengers flying light jets from the Punjab plains. Corporate jet catering here favours vegetarian mains and simple trays; VIP flight catering and charter flight catering add platters for a full cabin. Luxury inflight catering means a private jet chef cooking a bespoke menu for LUH, built from your passenger notes.
For official movements into VILD, government flight catering is coordinated through the protocol office. Head of state flight catering, VIP aviation catering and state visit aircraft catering share the same discipline: written menu, sealed delivery, quiet handover at Ludhiana.
Punjab cooking is mostly vegetarian-friendly, which helps, but ghee, cream, nuts and wheat sit in almost every dish, so allergens need a written procedure rather than a label. For Ludhiana we handle kosher and halal on request, vegan versions of dal and chole, gluten free options built on millet or rice instead of wheat breads, allergen free meals packed apart in sealed boxes, other special meals from your passenger cards, and kids meals such as plain rice, dal and fruit.

Ask for crew meals when you book the flight into VILD. We pack flight crew meals, pilot meals and cockpit meals in separate boxes, with crew catering labelled CREW and different meals for pilots as the operator requires. Pilots and cabin crew at VILD get their crew meal boxes only when you ask for them, and we bill them as a normal line, not as a courtesy.
FBO catering at Ludhiana is delivered to the general aviation terminal and handed to your handling agent. Catering delivery to the FBO is arranged with ground handling catering rules in mind, and handling agent catering means the agent opens the airside gate for the vehicle.
Ludhiana is a small general aviation field, so most aircraft here are light and midsize jets and turboprops, and the galley is modest. Galley catering is packed to what that aircraft carries. Airside catering delivery is made through your handling agent to the apron, and aircraft provisioning of larger orders is agreed before the slot. A high loader is only needed for a wider cabin or a bigger order, and we say so when the type is known.
Mention it when you orderCertified, inspected, with cold-chain records filed against your trip.
Whichever terminal you park at, handover is at the aircraft, on your slot.
Allergen sheet per guest, halal and kosher on request, sealed and labelled.

Ludhiana Airport is a general aviation field in Punjab, used by business jets, turboprops and flying clubs. Airport catering here is simple: one apron, one terminal, FBO services handled by the handling agent, and ground handling services that open the airside gate.
Ludhiana is a modest business aviation hub, serving textile and manufacturing travellers. Inflight catering and in-flight catering here mean light jets, aviation catering with a vegetarian lean, business aviation catering for charter, executive jet catering for owners, diplomatic flight catering for official visits and cabin crew meals on request.
India requires customs clearance of international arrivals, and food of foreign origin may be inspected or refused. At Ludhiana we cook locally so the order is clean on arrival. Check the current rule with your handling agent.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“Choosing a seafood starter and warm vegetable sides for 12 people at Ludhiana Airport was straightforward; the challenge was making it work with limited fridge space. For our team, the strongest part of their aviation catering was how they handled written menu details. The Galley Girls kept the crew provisions separate from the finishing elements, which gave us control over the final presentation. Keeping the salads aside until service helped preserve the presentation while we dealt with the boarding tasks.”
“Breakfast was already sorted; at VILD, the next request was roasted vegetable bowls with separate dressings for 12 guests, with several individual meal preferences to work around. With several people involved, The Galley Girls kept the main courses and delivery arrangements together in a concise order update. The desserts went straight to the right colleague instead of circulating between several people during the turnaround. With aviation catering services, careful attention to catering handover matters as much to our crew as the menu itself.”
“My order at LUH covered chicken skewers with a couscous salad for 3 guests, with a practical service plan needed because of different crew meal preferences. After a final adjustment to the main courses, The Galley Girls gave us one revised order summary to work from. The starters remained as originally requested, which was reassuring when we checked the latest version with operations. I want an aviation catering company to understand crew briefing, and this order gave us a useful starting point.”
If your crew sits on the ground for hours, we can pack a hearty hot meal plus chilled fruit, and the cost is the sum of those dishes. Private jet catering at Ludhiana is quoted per order, so a simple crew-only request is simple to price.
For an empty leg into LUH, the lead time question is mostly about the FBO slot and customs paperwork, not the kitchen. Give us the slot and the crew count and last-minute orders are handled.
The aircraft type shapes the order and customs shapes what stays on board. A turboprop with a tiny galley gets compact trays, a larger jet gets platters; foreign-origin items may be inspected.
Bringing your own is possible, though customs may inspect it and the galley may not suit it. A written special-meal request to us gives a sealed box with a clear label.
Food is ordered on top of the charter and invoiced like any other order. Airside access is the handling agent's call at LUH.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
