Catering to your aircraft in Wevelgem.
Kortrijk-Wevelgem is a quiet general aviation field in West Flanders, and the catering follows the pace: one order, one galley, one handover. We cook, pack and label for your crew, from Wevelgem to wherever the trip goes.
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.
Think of the West Flanders Province as a pantry: shrimp, chicory, endive, creamy cheese, dark chocolate. Our private jet menu for Wevelgem uses those local specialities as the starting point, and the inflight menu is adjusted around your headcount and your galley. Private jet food from this region is simple, seasonal and honest.
For EBKT we pack Flemish carbonnade with the frites kept separate, a cold shrimp tomato starter, and a plate of regional cheeses with pear. Each is cooked for a business jet galley, with clear service notes, so the flight attendant re-plates in order and nothing arrives soggy.
Tail, pax, diets, timing. One message — no portal, no quote form. Answered at any hour, by a flight attendant.
Leak-proof boxes, marked by guest and restriction, with reheating times written on the lid.
Two minutes out of the drawer. Whatever you ordered for the crew comes in the same delivery, and one clean invoice follows.
Kortrijk-Wevelgem sits at 55 ft in the flat farmland of West Flanders, and a general aviation apron this size means one galley order at a time, packed for the aircraft on your slot. Our private jet catering is written by former VIP flight attendants, so it reads like a galley you know: inflight catering that survives a short taxi, in-flight catering plated from the drawer, aviation catering for business aviation catering and executive jet catering clients, plus diplomatic flight catering and cabin crew meals when the trip needs them.
Executives departing EBKT usually want something local, quick to serve and clean to eat. We handle business jet catering and corporate jet catering with a private jet chef who builds a bespoke menu. VIP flight catering and charter flight catering follow the same standard, and luxury inflight catering is simply the plated version for the cabin.
When a delegation flies out of EBKT, discretion is the brief. Government flight catering means a cleared menu, a named contact and clear labels. Head of state flight catering, VIP aviation catering and state visit aircraft catering share one procedure, with nothing improvised at the FBO.
Belgian kitchens lean on butter, flour, shellfish and nuts, so allergens hide in sauces and pastry more than in the main plate. At Wevelgem we write special meals as a procedure: kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free and allergen free plates are cooked and packed separately, kids meals are portioned for small hands, and each tray carries the seat number only.
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.
Crew meals at Kortrijk-Wevelgem are ordered on request and invoiced like the rest of the order. Flight crew meals are packed separately from guest trays, and pilot meals are built for one hand, since the captain may eat during a short turnaround. Our crew catering includes cockpit meals, simple, balanced and clearly marked. Crew meal boxes can be cold or reheated, and different meals for pilots are available so captain and first officer do not share a dish. Cabin crew meals follow the same logic, ordered with the flight.
FBO catering at Kortrijk-Wevelgem is handed over at the general aviation terminal or directly at the aircraft, depending on your handling agent. Catering delivery to the FBO is coordinated with ground handling catering staff, who open the door and escort the cart. Handling agent catering stays simple: give the tail and the slot, and we do the rest.
Aircraft type decides the loading at Kortrijk-Wevelgem. A light jet takes its galley catering by hand through the cabin door; a larger cabin may need a high loader arranged through your handling agent for airside catering delivery. Tell us the type and the galley layout and we plan the aircraft provisioning around it, trolleys, drawers and oven space included.
Mention it when you orderCertified, inspected, with cold-chain records filed against your trip.
Whichever terminal you park at, handover is at the aircraft, on your slot.
Allergen sheet per guest, halal and kosher on request, sealed and labelled.
Itemised and trip-report ready, sent after the leg.
Kortrijk-Wevelgem International Airport serves West Flanders from a flat site at 55 ft, with a small terminal used mainly by general aviation. Airport catering here is a boutique job, shaped by the apron, the FBO and the weather rolling in from the North Sea.
Business aviation hub is a big phrase for EBKT, but the field handles steady general aviation and FBO services for corporate aircraft. Inflight catering and in-flight catering here are small, careful orders. Aviation catering and business aviation catering run alongside ground handling services, while executive jet catering, diplomatic flight catering and cabin crew meals complete the range.
Belgium follows EU rules, so departures within the Schengen area are light on paperwork, but food rules at the destination still apply. Meat and dairy can be restricted outside the EU, so we pack with the arrival country in mind and tell you what may have to stay aboard.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“Having 9 guests request roasted chicken and seasonal vegetables at KJK meant planning the portions carefully while accounting for different crew meal preferences. The Galley Girls talked through the quantities of side dishes with us before confirmation, rather than leaving us to guess the portions. The quantities of starters matched our service plan, leaving us comfortable with the order before the final briefing. My search for "private jet catering near me" led to a practical conversation about catering handover.”
“Service planning came first at Kortrijk-Wevelgem International Airport, with 7 passengers choosing fresh fruit and breakfast pastries and several individual meal preferences influencing our preparation. I asked The Galley Girls for the sauces in clearly marked packs, with garnishes supplied separately for plating on board. I would discuss private jet catering menu with them again, especially when galley preparation needs careful coordination. It made a difference to have the salads ready without cluttering the galley work area during preparation.”
“Our priority at EBKT was beef fillet with roasted potatoes for 10 passengers, with two separate meal services shaping the service plan. The catering handover stood out more than any sales pitch about private aviation catering. The Galley Girls used a readable packing list for the sauces, which helped when two colleagues checked the order together. Keeping the main courses identifiable helped the colleague taking over service understand the order without another long explanation.”
It depends on what your delegation eats. Flemish seafood in season costs more than a cheese board and chocolate, and protocol requests such as sealed trays are added line by line. Send the list and we return a clear figure.
Early departures at Kortrijk-Wevelgem are simple once the slot is known. Lead time is agreed with you by phone or email, any hour, and an order placed late is still treated seriously.
Customs treat shellfish and cheese differently from sweets. For a Kortrijk-Wevelgem departure, we note origin and packaging so your handling agent has an answer ready if a border officer asks.
A last-minute change in headcount is handled by phone, day or night. Own food is allowed on board, yet cold chain and labelling matter, so we recommend letting us pack.
No, the aircraft price does not carry food. For the return from Wevelgem, we arrange a new order, dietary notes included, and invoice it separately from your private jet charter.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
