Catering to your aircraft in Balchik.
Balchik Airfield (LBWB) is a coastal strip in Dobrich Province whose traffic follows the Black Sea summer. We cook and pack for the galley you have: cold trays for short stops, grilled fish for longer ones, and flight deck meals on request.
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.
Dobrich Province is Black Sea country, and the local table at Balchik Airfield follows it. A private jet menu for LBWB leans on what the coast and the Dobrudzha plain produce: sea bass and turbot from the Black Sea, sheep's-milk sirene cheese, ripe tomatoes in season, sunflower and wheat from the plain. We pack these as private jet platters for the cold drawer, and as gourmet inflight meals that finish in the galley oven.
Local specialities matter on this stretch of coast, so the inflight menu we build for Balchik starts from them. Shopska salad travels well chilled; tarator, the cold cucumber and yoghurt soup, stays in its own container; grilled fish is packed for re-plating. Private jet food from Dobrich Province is simple and seasonal, and private jet snacks, such as roasted nuts, dried fruit and local cheese, fit a short leg out of the airfield.
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.
Balchik Airfield (LBWB) is a small strip on a plateau above the Black Sea, in Dobrich Province, and its traffic follows the summer coast. Private jet catering here is built around that rhythm: cold trays for beach-season arrivals, crew meals for the flight deck, a hot menu for those who stay on the ground. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering at Balchik are ordered with the tail and the slot, then handed over at your FBO or handling agent. Business aviation catering, executive jet catering, diplomatic flight catering and cabin crew meals follow the same single order.
Most LBWB flights are holiday or corporate trips on small jets, so business jet catering is about what survives the apron and the cabin. Corporate jet catering and charter flight catering arrive packed by guest, VIP flight catering is sealed and labelled, and luxury inflight catering is a short, seasonal menu. A private jet chef writes a bespoke menu once we know the tail and the headcount.
A state delegation landing at LBWB brings a protocol officer, a security check and a fixed menu. Our government flight catering is prepared by a named team, head of state flight catering keeps sealed trays apart from the crew order, and VIP aviation catering and state visit aircraft catering are confirmed in writing before departure.
At Balchik, the cuisine leans on dairy, wheat and fish, so special meals are a procedure on our side: sirene and yoghurt are the first thing we check for allergen free orders, and breadcrumbs on fried fish for gluten free. Kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free and kids meals are each cooked and packed on their own board, labelled by seat number, and handed over sealed.
A sheet per guest. Separate boards, separate boxes.
Sealed, certificate in the same box.

Vegan, low-carb, light — composed, never compromised.
When the jet lands at LBWB, the crew eats last. Crew meals ordered on request come as sealed crew meal boxes: flight crew meals for the front, cockpit meals that need no cutlery, and pilot meals split so each pilot has a different dish. Crew catering is invoiced with the trip, different meals for pilots are arranged if the operator asks, and cabin crew meals are kept apart from the guest trays.
On a small field like LBWB, the FBO is the front door and the handling agent holds the gate. FBO catering is passed over there, catering delivery to the FBO is arranged by your agent with ours, and the general aviation terminal confirms airside access. Ground handling catering and handling agent catering are coordinated for the slot you give us.
LBWB is a small airfield, so most arrivals are light and midsize jets whose galley catering is loaded by hand at the cabin door. When a larger aircraft needs a high loader, say so with the tail: aircraft provisioning and airside catering delivery are arranged with your handling agent, with trays packed for the galley the type actually carries.

Balchik Airfield is a small general aviation field above the Black Sea in Dobrich Province, Bulgaria. Airport catering here is simple: one apron, one terminal and a handling agent who manages access. The FBO services and ground handling services on the field are modest in scale, so the useful details for your order are the slot, the aircraft type and the passenger count.
Balchik Airfield is a summer hub for private flights along the Bulgarian Black Sea coast. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering orders rise with the season. Business aviation catering and executive jet catering ride on private jet and charter flights, diplomatic flight catering is cleared by protocol, and cabin crew meals and crew meals are packed on request. FBO services stay light and local, and ground handling services are arranged through your agent. As a business aviation hub, Balchik is quiet outside the beach months.
Bulgaria is in the EU, so customs and food import rules are the EU's: meat and dairy from outside the bloc are restricted, and fruit and vegetables may be checked. For your order at Balchik, we cook locally, which keeps customs simple and the galley clean. Your handling agent and the FBO services on the field confirm airside access, and the ground handling services team tells you if a particular item needs paperwork.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“Food presentation mattered to our 6 guests, but a changing departure schedule also had to be considered when organising mushroom risotto and a green salad at Balchik Airfield. The Galley Girls confirmed the handover contact and identified the side dishes, making the catering delivery easier for our team to track. The cabin team could match the canapés to the request before moving on to the remaining departure tasks. This experience of flight catering services gave us a useful reference for managing final order confirmation on another departure.”
“Our priority at Balchik Airfield was a cheese board and savoury canapés for 9 passengers, with a revised passenger count shaping the service plan. We changed the quantities of canapés, and The Galley Girls reflected the request in the final packing list. With airline catering, careful attention to galley preparation matters as much to our crew as the menu itself. The starters remained as originally requested, which was reassuring when we checked the latest version with operations.”
“We kept the passenger brief simple at LBWB: smoked salmon bagels and sliced fruit for 12 guests, organised with an evening cabin service in mind. This experience of crew meals gave us a useful reference for managing written menu details on another departure. The Galley Girls talked through the quantities of fruit plates with us before confirmation, rather than leaving us to guess the portions. The quantities of canapés matched our service plan, leaving us comfortable with the order before the final briefing.”
For a delegation landing at LBWB, the cost comes from how many trays, how many dishes and how much sealing is needed. A single shared cold board is cheaper than individually plated hot courses for each guest. Tell us the seat plan and any protocol requirements, and we price the order for that flight, no more.
Balchik is a small field with simple access, which keeps ordering simple. What shapes the lead time is the turnaround: a quick fuel stop favours chilled trays, a longer stay leaves room for grilled fish. We handle last-minute orders by day or night, 24/7.
Customs at LBWB follow Bulgarian and EU rules, so international arrivals are treated like any EU airport. The practical effect is on the galley: a light jet with a small oven gets a different pack than a larger cabin. We prepare the order locally, which avoids imported-food questions at the aircraft.
For a night departure from Balchik, local catering avoids carrying food through customs and keeps everything sealed and labelled. If you still want to bring your own, check with your handling agent about animal products first.
Charter and catering are two different orders at Balchik. When the leg is long and two services are needed, we pack each service apart, mark them clearly and hand over at the FBO, invoiced separately from your private jet charter.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
