Catering to your aircraft in Afyonkarahisar.
Afyon Air Base, LTAH, is a plateau airfield where weather moves slots. We cook for the crew who serve at AFY and pass the order over at the aircraft, whatever the season.
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.
Afyonkarahisar Province is known across Turkey for its poppy seed, which is why the name carries the word afyon, and the table here is built on it. A private jet menu for Afyon Air Base can open with a poppy-seed pastry or a salad dressed with the oil pressed from the seed; both travel well in a drawer. The inflight menu leans on kaymak, the thick clotted cream of the province, served cold with honey on a small board. Private jet food from this region also means sucuk, the spiced dry sausage, sliced for a platter, and lokum cut from Afyon's own recipe. These are the local specialities we place on private jet platters, gourmet inflight meals and private jet snacks for Afyonkarahisar Province, each packed so it re-plates in the galley without a cook on board.

Two minutes out of the drawer. Whatever you ordered for the crew comes in the same delivery, and one clean invoice follows.
Afyon Air Base sits on a high plateau at 3,310 ft, and anyone planning private jet catering for a call at LTAH notices it first in the produce: poppy seed, kaymak and sucuk, packed for a galley rather than a dining room. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering for business aviation catering clients here follow the same rule: the menu is written for the aircraft you actually fly. For executive jet catering and diplomatic flight catering, the brief starts with the protocol office and the handling agent. Cabin crew meals ride in their own marked boxes, kept off the passenger cart.
For business jet catering at Afyon Air Base, the typical brief is a small cabin and a corporate jet catering order written by seat. VIP flight catering, charter flight catering and luxury inflight catering are all built around what the galley can finish. A private jet chef writes a bespoke menu that suits Afyonkarahisar produce and your aircraft type.
When a state delegation lands at LTAH, state visit aircraft catering is traced from kitchen to cabin. Government flight catering and head of state flight catering are planned with protocol, and VIP aviation catering stays quiet and discreet.
Kosher, halal, vegan and gluten free requests are handled as a procedure on the plate, not a note on the menu. Special meals from Afyonkarahisar kitchens use bulgur, flour and yoghurt heavily, so allergen free and gluten free dishes are cooked and boxed on a separate board. Kids meals and other special meals are labelled by seat.
A sheet per guest. Separate boards, separate boxes.
Sealed, certificate in the same box.
Their own menu, nothing to cut at altitude.
Vegan, low-carb, light — composed, never compromised.
At LTAH, crew meals are a separate line, ordered and invoiced with the trip. Flight crew meals and pilot meals go in boxes marked CREW, crew catering is sized for the rotation, and cockpit meals can be eaten one-handed. Crew meal boxes stay apart from guest trays, and different meals for pilots are packed as two distinct dishes. Cabin crew meals ride in the same delivery, labelled by role.
At LTAH, the general aviation terminal is where we meet your handling agent. FBO catering, ground handling catering and handling agent catering follow your slot, and catering delivery to the FBO ends at the aircraft.
At Afyon Air Base the aircraft type decides how food reaches the galley. For a larger cabin, galley catering and airside catering delivery are arranged with the handling agent so aircraft provisioning reaches a high door without trays being restacked. On a light jet, the drawer and a small oven set what we pack and how.

Afyon Air Base serves airport catering needs for a plateau city better known for poppy seed and thermal springs than for traffic. General aviation here is quiet, and FBO services and ground handling services are set up around your arrival.
Business aviation catering at LTAH is seasonal: thermal tourism in the cooler months and warm clear summers shape the traffic. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering for executive jet catering clients follow a simple rule, local produce on a galley-sized plate. Diplomatic flight catering and cabin crew meals complete the picture for AFY, and Afyon works as a small business aviation hub.
Turkish customs control food entering the country, so imported ingredients are declared and local produce keeps things simple. Inflight catering leaving or entering LTAH follows the rules the handling agent confirms for your flight.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“Menu approval at Afyon Air Base covered beef fillet with roasted potatoes for 7 guests, leaving us to organise the service around a tight boarding window. The Galley Girls prepared the sauces for assembly in the galley, with the accompanying elements easy to locate. Keeping the crew provisions aside until service helped preserve the presentation while we dealt with the boarding tasks. The order made business jet catering feel manageable because the crew briefing had been considered beforehand.”
“For 12 passengers departing from LTAH, the agreed menu was a breakfast basket with individual preserves; our main consideration was a tight boarding window. Our handling contact received the order details from The Galley Girls, including how the snack boxes had been grouped. Knowing where the main courses were packed meant the crew could begin the relevant checks as soon as the order arrived. This experience of business aviation catering gave us a useful reference for managing packing arrangement on another departure.”
“Clear quantities were essential at AFY: we had 2 passengers expecting a cold lunch with cheese and fruit and were working around a late menu amendment. I asked The Galley Girls to review the main courses quantities against the passenger brief, and the proposed portions made sense. For jet catering, that attention to galley preparation made the order noticeably easier to manage. The quantities of salads matched our service plan, leaving us comfortable with the order before the final briefing.”
A cheese board with poppy-seed biscuits is priced very differently from a full lamb dinner for eight, and the handling agent's airside access adds its own line. That gap is what shapes private jet catering cost in Afyonkarahisar.
When departures here are decided by the weather, a rigid lead time is no help. We work from your slot, update when it moves, and handle last-minute orders for LTAH.
A menu built around Afyon kaymak and sucuk is sourced locally, so customs concern mainly what the aircraft carries in from elsewhere. We keep Afyonkarahisar dishes local and note anything imported.
Special meals are cleaner when we prepare them: the restriction is written once, the dish is cooked apart and sealed, and the seat number goes on the lid. Outside food is allowed but harder to keep separate.
Private jet charter pricing leaves out catering. For a two-service long leg from Afyon Air Base, you place a separate order, and each service is packed with its own label for the cabin crew.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
