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

What Ulaanbaatar (Sergelen) brings to your in-flight catering (UBN)

A private jet menu for Ulaanbaatar begins at the Mongolian table, where mutton and beef carry most meals and milk tea is how a guest is received. On an inflight menu that means slow-cooked meat that keeps its texture, dumplings built for re-plating and dairy-based cold plates. The local specialities we draw on across Töv Province include buuz, khuushuur, tsuivan and aaruul, the dried curd snack. Private jet food for this field works best when the heavy dish is cooked, sealed and finished in the oven, while sea-buckthorn, a tart Mongolian berry, lifts desserts and drinks. Treated this way, gourmet inflight meals survive a cold ramp and a delayed departure. Every menu is written for the galley on your aircraft, not for an ideal kitchen.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Ulaanbaatar Chinggis Khaan International Airport (ZMCK)

Ulaanbaatar Chinggis Khaan International sits high on the Töv Province steppe, and winter weather decides more departures than any schedule. Private jet catering here is planned around cold ramps, a handling agent who controls airside access and a galley that may have no oven. We plan inflight catering and aviation catering for business aviation, executive jet catering and diplomatic flight catering movements, with cabin crew meals packed for the people actually working the flight.

VIP flight and private jet catering at Ulaanbaatar Chinggis Khaan International Airport (ZMCK)

Business jet catering at UBN means a brief shaped by steppe weather and a short season for fresh produce. Corporate jet catering and VIP flight catering are planned around the aircraft's galley, with charter flight catering for visiting delegations and luxury inflight catering for guests who expect more than a packed lunch. A private jet chef writes a bespoke menu using mutton, beef, curd and sea-buckthorn, sealed for the flight.

Special meals and allergen free inflight catering at Ulaanbaatar Chinggis Khaan International Airport

Dietary requests at UBN are a procedure, written around a kitchen where meat and dairy sit in nearly every traditional dish. Halal is workable here with early notice, since mutton and beef dominate; kosher meals are sealed and handled separately. Vegan, gluten free, allergen free and kids meals are marked by seat number so nobody opens the wrong box. Tell us the restriction and the passenger, and we plan special meals around it.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meals on request for flights from Ulaanbaatar (Sergelen) (UBN)

A long wait on the Ulaanbaatar ramp changes what crew meals should be. We pack flight crew meals and pilot meals that stay warm, plan crew catering with a CREW label, and make cockpit meals easy to eat between checks. Crew meal boxes are ordered with the flight, on request, invoiced as usual, with different meals for pilots when the captain and first officer should not share a dish.

FBO catering and handling agent delivery at Ulaanbaatar Chinggis Khaan International Airport

Your handling agent decides who goes airside at ZMCK, so we plan FBO catering around them. Catering delivery to the FBO, ground handling catering and handling agent catering are agreed with the general aviation terminal, with the handover made at the aircraft.

High loader delivery for jet catering at Ulaanbaatar Chinggis Khaan International Airport (UBN)

Aircraft provisioning at Ulaanbaatar depends on the type: a light jet takes its galley catering through the cabin door, a larger cabin may need a high loader for airside catering delivery. We confirm the door height and galley layout with your handling agent before anything is packed, because a cold ramp is a poor place to discover the trolley does not fit.

About the airportZMCK / UBN

About Ulaanbaatar Chinggis Khaan International Airport (UBN): airport catering for business aviation

Ulaanbaatar Chinggis Khaan International is Mongolia's main gateway, and its airport catering follows a high, cold steppe site. General aviation and FBO services receive business arrivals, with ground handling services arranged through your agent at the FBO.

Business aviation

Business aviation here is seasonal: summer brings mining, tourism and delegations, winter brings weather holds. As a business aviation hub for the region, UBN sees inflight catering and in-flight catering planned around that rhythm, while aviation catering and business aviation catering follow your slot. Executive jet catering suits private movements, diplomatic flight catering fits state visits, and cabin crew meals keep the working crew fed, with crew meals ordered on request and invoiced as usual.

Customs & food import

Mongolian customs restrict meat and dairy imports, so animal products brought from abroad can stall a flight at clearance. In practice, local sourcing is usually simpler, and we confirm declared quantities with your handling agent. The same ground handling services that manage the aircraft also coordinate airside access for the food.

★★★★★VIP AIRLINER
“Rather than an elaborate service at Ulaanbaatar Chinggis Khaan International Airport, our 12 guests wanted a charcuterie board and fresh bread, organised sensibly around a revised passenger count. I want a private jet chef to understand storage requirements, and this order gave us a useful starting point. We described our serving sequence to The Galley Girls and asked for the snack boxes to be packed accordingly. That left time to check the crew provisions properly before the passengers were ready for the next part of the service.”
Melissa C. | Chief cabin officer — BBJ

★★★★★ROYAL FLIGHT
“Menu approval at ZMCK covered a cold lunch with cheese and fruit for 5 guests, leaving us to organise the service around several individual meal preferences. I asked The Galley Girls to review the desserts quantities against the passenger brief, and the proposed portions made sense. The quantities of canapés matched our service plan, leaving us comfortable with the order before the final briefing. For in flight catering, that attention to portion planning made the order noticeably easier to manage.”
Jade L. | Royal family manager

★★★★★LARGE CABIN
“It was the packing plan I cared about at UBN, with 8 servings of a selection of petits fours and sandwiches and a small galley worktop to consider. The desserts supplied by The Galley Girls were straightforward to check against the written menu before the cabin handover. Keeping the breakfast portions identifiable helped the colleague taking over service understand the order without another long explanation. I would discuss inflight catering services with them again, especially when portion planning needs careful coordination.”

Ulaanbaatar Chinggis Khaan International: the questionsAsked by crews
How much does private jet catering cost at Ulaanbaatar?+

An order of buuz and tsuivan costs differently from a plated seafood service, and a departure that waits on a storm may need two meal services. We quote private jet catering for Ulaanbaatar from your menu and passenger count, never a fixed list.

What is the lead time for catering at ZMCK?+

At Ulaanbaatar, a simple order is one where the FBO or handling agent has the tail and the slot early. Seasonal produce can narrow choices, but last-minute orders are handled.

What are the customs rules for food at Ulaanbaatar?+

Food import rules in Mongolia are strict on meat and dairy. If your party grows on the day, we adjust covers from local supply so nothing needs special clearance.

Can you bring food on board at Ulaanbaatar?+

Passengers may bring personal food, though animal products attract customs attention. For crews waiting on the ground, we recommend ordering crew meals.

Is catering part of a charter into Ulaanbaatar?+

Not part of it. Order catering separately; it is invoiced on its own, and Mongolian customs rules shape what we can fly in.
