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 Attock for jet catering at ISB

Punjab cooking travels well if you choose carefully, and a private jet menu for Islamabad International should start there. Seekh kebab, chapli kebab and chicken tikka hold in an insulated tray, naan wraps in foil, and biryani packs in portions per seat. Our inflight menu keeps the gravy apart for karahi and nihari so the crew can re-plate without a mess.

The local specialities worth ordering are the ones that survive a galley: dal, haleem, saag, and sweets such as gulab jamun, barfi and kheer. Private jet food from the Punjab is heavy and warm, so we label which items go in the oven, which stay chilled and which are served at room temperature. For Attock and the wider Punjab, fresh fruit in season, mango in summer and kinnow citrus in winter, round off a tray without any cooking at all.

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

A delegation arriving at OPIS usually brings a protocol list longer than the menu, and private jet catering here starts with that list. Inflight catering for these flights is built around halal as the baseline, with kosher, allergen and child meals added as exceptions. In-flight catering at ISB for diplomatic flight catering and business aviation catering is packed for the galley you actually have, with cabin crew meals boxed apart. Aviation catering and executive jet catering both follow the same rule: nothing cooked on board, everything re-plated.

  • Restaurant cuisine, cooked on the ground
  • Fresh and local produce
  • Labelled by seat, diet and reheat
  • Aviation-ready packaging
  • High loader for large cabins
  • HACCP certified kitchens

Business aviationOur core

Private jet catering in Attock for business and VIP flights (ISB)

Business jet catering at Islamabad International is shaped by the trip: a corporate jet with six executives wants lighter lunches, while a charter flight catering order for a family may want a full halal spread. VIP flight catering and luxury inflight catering are cooked by a private jet chef working from a bespoke menu written for your galley. Corporate jet catering follows the same logic: seat numbers on the lid, sauces apart and nothing cooked on board.

State & royalDiscretion, protocol

Government flight and VIP aviation catering at Islamabad International Airport

For a state visit or a delegation, the menu is approved before anything is cooked. Government flight catering, head of state flight catering and state visit aircraft catering share one rule: sealed trays, seat numbers only. VIP aviation catering at OPIS is handled by a small team that knows the protocol.

Special meals and allergen free inflight catering at Islamabad International Airport

In Pakistan halal is the baseline, not the exception, so a halal tray at OPIS needs no special handling. What needs care is everything else: kosher meals sealed in their own packaging, vegan trays without ghee, gluten free breads, allergen free dishes cooked apart from nuts and sesame, and kids meals with mild spice. Special meals are marked by seat, never by name.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meals & pilot meals at Islamabad International Airport

Crew meals at Islamabad International are ordered with the flight and invoiced like any other item; they are never included or offered. Flight crew meals come boxed with the CREW label, and pilot meals can be two different dishes so captain and first officer never share a plate. Cockpit meals are packed to eat with one hand: rice and chicken, wraps, fruit. Crew catering for a night rotation or a long delegation stay can be hot or cold, and different meals for pilots are available on request. Crew meal boxes travel in their own bag, apart from the guest trays.

Large cabin jet catering with a high loader at Islamabad International Airport (ISB)

Galley catering at OPIS depends on the aircraft: a light jet is loaded by hand, a larger cabin may need a high loader at the door. Airside catering delivery goes through the handling agent, and aircraft provisioning is confirmed against the galley layout, ovens and chillers you actually have before anything is packed.

About the airportOPIS / ISB

Airport catering at Islamabad International Airport (OPIS)

Islamabad International is the main gateway for the capital region and sits at 1,761 ft in the Punjab, where summer density altitude matters for heavier jets. Airport catering at OPIS serves a business aviation hub of delegations, diplomatic visits and corporate trips, with general aviation and FBO traffic on the same apron. Ground handling services are run through the handling agent, who also controls airside access for every food delivery.

Business aviation

Visits cluster around the diplomatic calendar and the summer heat, and OPIS plans its apron around both. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering for these flights follow the same rhythm, with business aviation catering and executive jet catering for corporate trips, diplomatic flight catering for delegations, and cabin crew meals and crew meals packed for each rotation. FBO services and ground handling services on the general aviation side decide who reaches the aircraft and when, so the order carries the tail number from the start.

Customs & food import

Pakistan restricts fresh meat, dairy and some produce, and customs inspect uplift at the apron through the handling agent. Ground handling services clear sealed, labelled trays together with the rest of the aircraft provisioning, so halal food cooked locally arrives without a hold-up. Anything brought in from the departure kitchen risks being refused, which is why the order is built around local ingredients.

★★★★★LARGE CABIN
“With different crew meal preferences to consider at Islamabad International Airport, we needed a practical way to serve a light pasta dish with grilled vegetables to 11 passengers. We changed the quantities of breakfast portions, and The Galley Girls reflected the request in the final packing list. When comparing private jet catering companies, I would look closely at crew briefing after this experience. The note about the crew provisions was easy to spot, and we could brief the rest of the team quickly.”
Akira A. | Chief flight attendant

★★★★★BUSINESS JET
“It was the packing plan I cared about at OPIS, with 5 servings of a breakfast basket with individual preserves and a late menu amendment to consider. My search for "private jet catering near me" led to a practical conversation about catering handover. Our request to The Galley Girls focused on the sauces, with enough detail to distinguish passenger portions from additional provisions. It was useful to see the salads listed separately when checking how much space the complete order would require.”
Stella H. | VIP flight attendant

★★★★☆ROYAL FLIGHT
“We kept the passenger brief simple at ISB: a mezze selection with flatbreads for 6 guests, organised with several individual meal preferences in mind. I would discuss private jet catering menu with them again, especially when final order confirmation needs careful coordination. The salads supplied by The Galley Girls were straightforward to check against the written menu before the cabin handover. The snack boxes were also listed clearly, which made it easier to pass instructions between crew members during preparation.”

The Islamabad International questionsAsked by crews
How much does private jet catering cost at Islamabad International?+

Start with the galley. A mid-size jet with limited oven space gets fewer hot dishes and more cold platters, which usually costs less than a full hot service for a large aircraft. Mango in summer or a lamb dish for twelve will move the price in different directions, and we quote per menu, not per tray.

What is the lead time for a special meal at Islamabad International?+

If a passenger needs a halal tray, there is nothing to plan. If the same passenger needs a kosher meal, sealed and labelled, that is where timing matters. Send the diet card with the order; last-minute requests are handled when the ingredients are available.

Does customs affect private jet catering at Islamabad International?+

Everything crosses the airside boundary through the handling agent. Customs and security checks apply to the trays like any other uplift, so we pack them sealed and labelled, ready for inspection by the agent on the ramp.

Can you bring food into Pakistan on a private jet?+

Food-import rules in Pakistan are strict about meat and fresh produce, and anything left over from the departure kitchen may be refused at customs. Locally sourced halal catering sidesteps the issue entirely.

Is catering part of a charter for a delegation flight into Islamabad?+

Catering stays outside the charter even on a delegation flight. We take the menu from the protocol office, keep names off the labels and bill the food as its own order.
