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.

Batken on the plate: local specialities for in-flight catering at UCFB

Batken Region is Kyrgyzstan's southern fruit and nut belt, and a private jet menu from UCFB leans on what grows there. Apricots arrive fresh in summer and dried the rest of the year; walnuts and almonds travel well and fill the drawer for a long leg. Our inflight menu for Batken is built from local specialities: plov with lamb carrot and rice, packed so the rice stays loose, and samsa pastries that finish in the galley oven. Fresh lepyoshka flatbread comes with a dip of kaymak and honey. Private jet food from this valley is simple, seasonal and generous, so we write gourmet inflight meals around it. Private jet platters carry dried apricots, nuts, cured meat and hard cheese. Private jet snacks are walnuts, halva and dried fruit boxes. Shashlik is grilled to order, boxed hot, and re-plated at altitude. These local specialities of Batken are our reference when a guest asks for something that tastes of the place.

A private jet menu for Batken Region starts from the orchard. Apricot season changes everything: fruit that is fresh in July is dried and sweeter by autumn, and the walnut harvest follows. For the inflight menu we use these as the base of private jet food that looks local without needing a kitchen on board. Plov, shashlik, manti dumplings and samsa are the dishes crews recognise from this valley; each is cooked, packed and labelled for the galley, with sauce on the side where it matters. Gourmet inflight meals can combine them with lighter plates for guests who want less. Private jet platters of dried fruit and nuts, and private jet snacks such as halva and roasted almonds, make good local specialities for the cabin.

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

What does a crew find when the door opens at Batken? Mountain air, a short apron, and no catering in the terminal. Private jet catering for Batken (UCFB) is therefore planned before the wheels leave the ground: you give us the tail, the slot and the headcount, and we pack for the galley you actually have. We write inflight catering and in-flight catering menus around apricots, walnuts, plov and fresh flatbread. Aviation catering and business aviation catering for charter, executive jet catering and diplomatic flight catering run on the same plan, with cabin crew meals on request.

Business aviationOur core

Business jet catering at Batken Airport for VIP flights

Who flies into Batken? Mostly small corporate and charter aircraft, and the galley is rarely generous. Business jet catering for UCFB is therefore planned around the aircraft: corporate jet catering with plated lamb, VIP flight catering that stays discreet, charter flight catering for mixed parties, and luxury inflight catering using seasonal fruit. Our private jet chef writes a bespoke menu for each tail.

Inflight catering for government and royal flights at Batken Airport

A visit to Batken by officials means a protocol office decides the menu before the kitchen does. Government flight catering is therefore traceable and sealed. Head of state flight catering, VIP aviation catering and state visit aircraft catering are all packed by a named team and passed to the handling agent without fuss.

Dietary requirements and aviation catering at Batken Airport (UCFB)

Special meals at Batken start with the local kitchen: lamb and wheat are everywhere, so halal is the natural default and kosher is arranged as its own sealed order. Vegan and gluten free plates are built on rice, vegetables, fruit and nuts rather than on adapted dishes. Allergen free meals matter where walnuts and sesame turn up in so many local dishes, so each tray is separated and marked by seat number. Kids meals stay simple: plain rice, chicken and fruit.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meals and cockpit meals in Batken (UCFB)

Crew meals at Batken are commissioned with the trip, on request and invoiced like the rest. Flight crew meals can be a boxed plov or a cold plate, and pilot meals are packed so they can be eaten in the cockpit. Crew catering is labelled CREW, cockpit meals are chosen for one hand, and crew meal boxes are sealed. We also pack different meals for pilots if the operator asks. Cabin crew meals are listed apart.

Airport catering at the FBO or general aviation terminal, Batken Airport

FBO catering at Batken is passed at the apron to whoever represents the aircraft. Catering delivery to the FBO is arranged before the slot, and the general aviation terminal is the point of contact if there is no dedicated lounge. Ground handling catering and handling agent catering follow the same route: one name receives the box and signs for it.

Aircraft provisioning for large cabins: airport catering at Batken Airport

A business jet at Batken needs no special equipment, but a larger aircraft changes the plan: door height and galley position decide how the load is handed over. For galley catering we ask for the type and the galley layout before packing. Airside catering delivery runs through the FBO or your handling agent at the apron. Aircraft provisioning for a bigger cabin is packed in smaller boxes so it can pass the door and be stowed without blocking the aisle.

About the airportUCFB

About Batken Airport (UCFB): aviation catering and general aviation

Batken Airport (UCFB) serves the Batken Region in southwest Kyrgyzstan, a short-runway field at 3,602 ft in the mountains. Airport catering here is limited, so crews plan ahead. General aviation shares the apron with government traffic and the occasional charter.

Business aviation

Inflight catering at Batken is planned around altitude and the short apron. In-flight catering for executive jet catering requests is packed lighter to suit mountain air. Aviation catering and business aviation catering follow the season, with diplomatic flight catering for visiting delegations and cabin crew meals ordered alongside. This remains a small business aviation hub for the valley, with FBO services and ground handling services on request.

Customs & food import

Food-import rules in Kyrgyzstan restrict fresh meat and dairy brought from abroad, which is why we prepare locally for Batken. Your handling agent manages customs paperwork at the apron. Check with them before bringing food on board.

★★★★★LIGHT JET
“Timing and organisation mattered at Batken Airport, where our order of roasted vegetable bowls with separate dressings for 6 people involved different crew meal preferences. We discussed the dimensions before confirming; The Galley Girls grouped the snack boxes into shallow trays that were easy to handle. I want a private jet chef to understand cabin service sequence, and this order gave us a useful starting point. I could hand the breakfast portions to a colleague with a short explanation instead of unpacking the whole order.”
Manuel Z. | VIP flight attendant
Learjet 75
★★★★★BUSINESS JET
“My order at UCFB covered roasted chicken and seasonal vegetables for 3 guests, with a practical service plan needed because of different crew meal preferences. The portion planning stood out more than any sales pitch about in flight catering. Our request to The Galley Girls focused on the snack boxes, with enough detail to distinguish passenger portions from additional provisions. The quantities of sandwiches matched our service plan, leaving us comfortable with the order before the final briefing.”

★★★★★LARGE CABIN
“As the person coordinating a cold lunch with cheese and fruit for 10 passengers at Batken Airport, I needed an arrangement that considered different crew meal preferences. For our team, the strongest part of their inflight catering services was how they handled written menu details. With several people involved, The Galley Girls kept the crew provisions and delivery arrangements together in a concise order update. The breakfast portions went straight to the right colleague instead of circulating between several people during the turnaround.”

Batken: the questionsAsked by crews
How much does private jet catering cost at Batken?+

Ask yourself how long the aircraft will sit at Batken. A short turnaround means the menu is chosen for speed of handover, and we price it that way. A longer stay lets us add dishes that need finishing. The quote reflects your slot and your galley. How much does private jet catering cost at Batken? We tell you before we cook.

What is the lead time for catering at Batken?+

Government flights bring a protocol step that ordinary charters do not have. Lead time at Batken includes it: we confirm the menu with the delegation office, then build the order. The FBO or handling agent is told in advance who collects. Last-minute orders are handled where the menu is already set.

What are the customs rules for catering at Batken?+

Customs on a short repositioning flight is rarely complicated, but food is an exception. Fresh meat, dairy and produce are controlled when imported to Kyrgyzstan. For Batken we source and cook locally, so nothing arrives from another country. Crew meals are packed in sealed boxes and passed to the FBO.

Can you bring food to Batken from elsewhere?+

If you ordered a return leg from here, you may want to take Batken food onward and not bring anything in. Dried apricots, walnuts and halva are easy to carry and are common gifts. Bringing food in from abroad is possible but customs rules apply, and a local order avoids the question entirely. Tell us what the return needs and we pack it.

Is catering part of a charter into Batken?+

No, catering does not come with the aircraft. A private jet charter to UCFB covers the flight, while food is ordered and billed separately. Kyrgyz customs rules on imported food are another reason local preparation is practical. We pack to your galley and deliver through the FBO.
