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

Ziro on the plate: local specialities for in-flight catering at ZER

Arunachal Pradesh gives the private jet menu at Ziro its character: Apatani rice, bamboo shoot, smoked pork, river fish and fresh mountain greens. We cook them for the galley and write the inflight menu around what survives a long leg and a wait on the ground.

Local specialities arrive as private jet food that re-plates cleanly: steamed rice and a sauce apart, pork with bamboo shoot, vegetables in a separate container. Private jet platters of Arunachal fruit, including kiwi from the Ziro valley when in season, travel chilled, and private jet snacks come as nuts, millet cakes and dried fruit. Gourmet inflight meals here lean on plain, clean flavour, because Ziro is a quiet strip and the galley is small.

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

Ziro Airport sits at 5,403 ft in the Arunachal highlands, where cloud closes the valley faster than a forecast admits, and that decides how we plan private jet catering for VEZO. A cabin that waits on the ground needs food that holds; inflight catering here is packed for that wait. Our aviation catering follows the aircraft, and business aviation catering and executive jet catering orders get the same galley-ready packing as anywhere else. For diplomatic flight catering and cabin crew meals we agree the menu with you first, then deliver to the handling agent.

Business jet catering at VEZO Ziro, ready for the galley

Business aviationOur core

Corporate and VIP jet catering at Ziro Airport (ZER)

Business jet catering at Ziro is usually a small brief for a light aircraft: a handful of covers, one hot course, a chilled plate. Corporate jet catering for a visiting company and VIP flight catering for a private party are sized to the same small galley. Charter flight catering is shaped by the galley, and luxury inflight catering stays simple and local. A private jet chef writes a bespoke menu around rice, greens and fruit from the plateau.

State & royalDiscretion, protocol

At Ziro, government flight catering is cleared with the protocol office before any dish is cooked. Head of state flight catering and VIP aviation catering follow a cleared menu with named staff and sealed packing. State visit aircraft catering keeps a trace of every item and every hand it passed through.

Special meals

Halal, kosher and kids meals: inflight catering at Ziro Airport (ZER)

Kosher and halal requests at Ziro are handled as a procedure, not a label: sourcing is confirmed before cooking, because the valley kitchen cooks with pork and fermented ingredients and cross-contact is the real risk. Vegan and gluten free meals are built on rice, millet and vegetables; allergen free and special meals are packed in their own sealed container and marked by seat number. Kids meals stay plain: rice, steamed vegetables, mild fish.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meals on request for flights from Ziro (ZER)

When a crew waits out duty time at Ziro, crew meals are what keeps the day workable. Ask for flight crew meals and we pack them apart from the guest trays. Pilot meals come as two dishes, crew catering is billed as ordered, cockpit meals are easy to eat in the seat, and crew meal boxes can be split so different meals for pilots stay separate.

DeliveryEvery FBO

Airport catering delivered to the FBO at Ziro Airport (VEZO)

FBO catering at Ziro is handed over where the aircraft stops. Catering delivery to the FBO is arranged with the general aviation terminal and your handling agent. Ground handling catering and handling agent catering are one coordinated step, so food reaches the apron without a gate stop.

High loaderLarge cabins, bizliners

High loader delivery for jet catering at Ziro Airport (ZER)

The aircraft decides how food is loaded at Ziro. A turboprop or light jet takes trays by hand through the door and into a small galley, so galley catering is packed to fit one drawer and one oven. Larger aircraft that need a high loader are agreed beforehand with the handling agent, since airside catering delivery at a small highland strip depends on equipment being on the ramp. Aircraft provisioning is confirmed with tail and type.

About the airportVEZO / ZER

About Ziro Airport (ZER): airport catering for business aviation

Ziro is a small airport in Arunachal Pradesh, serving a plateau known for its rice fields and its Apatani community. Airport catering here stays local and small in scale. It is a general aviation field with simple FBO services and limited ground handling services.

Business aviation

Business aviation at Ziro is occasional and seasonal. Inflight catering and in-flight catering orders arrive for light jets and helicopters visiting the valley, and aviation catering is packed to the galley. Business aviation catering, executive jet catering and diplomatic flight catering for official visits follow the same rules, and cabin crew meals are ordered with the flight. As a business aviation hub it is small, but it is real.

Customs & food import

In India, food brought in on an international flight is checked on arrival, and meat and fresh produce are the usual problems. A domestic leg to Ziro has no such step. We keep catering local and sealed to keep the order simple for your handling agent.

★★★★★BUSINESS JET

“We kept the passenger brief simple at Ziro Airport: beef fillet with roasted potatoes for 2 guests, organised with several individual meal preferences in mind. The meal organisation stood out more than any sales pitch about private jet food. The Galley Girls confirmed the handover contact and identified the starters, making the catering delivery easier for our team to track. Knowing where the salads were packed meant the crew could begin the relevant checks as soon as the order arrived.”

“Our priority at VEZO was mushroom risotto and a green salad for 3 passengers, with a late menu amendment shaping the service plan. The Galley Girls grouped the breakfast portions by service, which was more useful to us than simply receiving a list of dishes. The snack boxes were reserved for the next stage, so the worktop stayed clear while we prepared the initial dishes. The written menu details stood out more than any sales pitch about private jet meals.”

★★★★★LARGE CABIN

“Having 3 guests request fresh fruit and breakfast pastries at ZER meant planning the portions carefully while accounting for a small galley worktop. We discussed the dimensions before confirming; The Galley Girls grouped the breakfast portions into individual containers that were easy to handle. I could hand the snack boxes to a colleague with a short explanation instead of unpacking the whole order. My main takeaway from this private jet menu order was the practical approach to written menu details.”

Questions crews ask about ZiroAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost on a long leg out of Ziro with two services on board?+

A long leg is a bigger menu, and a bigger menu is a bigger invoice. For Ziro we price two services by dish, so a hot Apatani rice plate plus a chilled fruit course is quoted separately from drinks and snacks.

What is the lead time for private jet catering at Ziro when weather decides departures?+

Dry-season clear days and monsoon cloud change how firm a departure time is. We keep lead time practical: the order is confirmed once the slot is firm, and last-minute requests are handled day or night.

What about customs when crew duty time means waiting on the ground at Ziro?+

India controls food entering the country, and Ziro is a remote strip, so a flight arriving from abroad should plan its galley with that in mind. For crew who wait out duty time on the ground, we pack meals that stay safe and re-plate cleanly.

Can you bring food on a short repositioning flight into Ziro with an empty cabin?+

An empty cabin does not mean an empty galley. Bringing food into Ziro is possible within customs limits, but a short hop is easier with a local order: cooked, sealed and handed over to the handling agent.

Is catering part of a charter into Ziro, and does the aircraft type change the answer?+

Not part of the charter. You order it, we invoice it, and the galley size on your aircraft sets how many dishes we can pack and how they finish.
