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.

Angoulême on the plate: local specialities for in-flight catering at ANG

The Charente is cognac country, and Angoulême sits in the middle of it. A private jet menu for Angoulême starts with Charente butter, Charentais melon in summer, goat cheese from the Poitou-Charentes side and oysters from the Marennes-Oléron beds. Our local specialities travel as private jet platters: cold cuts, cheeses and fruit that go straight from the drawer to the plate. Gourmet inflight meals follow the season, a duck dish in winter, a chilled melon starter when it is warm. Private jet food for a Nouvelle-Aquitaine stop also means private jet snacks that keep well on a short leg: Cognac-cured nuts, almond biscuits and local chocolate. Every inflight menu is written for the galley of your aircraft.

Nouvelle-Aquitaine gives us a deep pantry, and Angoulême is the right base to use it. Local specialities here include foie gras, Charente butter, melon, Marennes oysters and the goat cheeses of the Poitou side. Cooked and chilled, they become gourmet inflight meals; sliced and boxed, private jet platters; small and portable, private jet snacks. The private jet menu changes with the harvest, and the inflight menu is always written around the oven, the drawers and the passengers on board. Private jet food from this region is simple, generous and honest, which is exactly what a short business leg needs.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Angoulême Brie-Champniers airport (LFBU)

Brie-Champniers sits at 436 ft in the Charente plateau, a quiet field where a Citation or a King Air parks within sight of the terminal. Private jet catering at Angoulême Brie-Champniers (LFBU / ANG) is built for that kind of stop: a short menu, cooked for the galley you really have. Our former VIP flight attendants handle inflight catering and in-flight catering for the cabin, and cabin crew meals for whoever is serving it. As aviation catering goes, this is business aviation catering at its most direct: executive jet catering for owners, and diplomatic flight catering when a state or embassy trip lands in Nouvelle-Aquitaine.

Business aviationOur core

Business jet & VIP jet catering at Angoulême Brie-Champniers airport

Corporate and charter flights into Angoulême are mostly light jets with four to eight seats, so business jet catering here means a tight menu: one hot dish, one cold plate, a snack drawer. Corporate jet catering for an executive visiting a Cognac house leans on local produce. Our private jet chef writes a bespoke menu around the oven you have, and VIP flight catering at LFBU follows the same rule. Charter flight catering is ordered separately and invoiced as such, and luxury inflight catering here means one well-made dish instead of five average ones.

Head of state flight catering is traceable ingredient by ingredient, VIP aviation catering stays discreet, and state visit aircraft catering is handed over only to authorised crew at the apron.

Special meals & dietary requirements: in-flight catering at Angoulême Brie-Champniers airport

Special meals at Angoulême start with the local kitchen: butter, cream, nuts and cognac sauces are everywhere, so allergen free dishes are cooked and packed apart, with a separate board and a labelled box. Kosher, halal, vegan and gluten free orders follow the same procedure, and kids meals go in their own tray with the seat number on the lid.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meals on request for flights from Angoulême (ANG)

At LFBU, where a turn is often brief, crew meals are a simple box: ordered on request, billed with the order. Flight crew meals stay separate from guest trays, pilot meals are cooked to be eaten between checks, and crew catering is planned around the apron. Cockpit meals travel in sealed crew meal boxes, and different meals for pilots are prepared on request so captain and first officer never share a dish. Cabin crew meals are boxed separately for whoever serves.

Airport catering at the FBO or general aviation terminal, Angoulême Brie-Champniers airport

At LFBU we meet you where you park: at the general aviation terminal or on the FBO apron. FBO catering is handed to the crew, never left unattended. Catering delivery to the FBO is arranged with the handling agent, ground handling catering is billed on the same invoice as the order, and handling agent catering confirms access to the aircraft.

Galley-door delivery and aviation catering at Angoulême Brie-Champniers airport (ANG)

Small jets are the norm at LFBU, so galley catering is built around a Citation, a Phenom or a King Air: one compact oven, a drawer or two, no space to spare. Airside catering delivery is a hand-carry to the stairs at the FBO apron, and aircraft provisioning for a larger visitor is agreed with the handling agent before the slot. High loader needs are rare here and confirmed on request.

About the airportLFBU / ANG

Airport catering at Angoulême Brie-Champniers airport (LFBU)

Angoulême Brie-Champniers sits at 436 ft, serving the Charente and the surrounding cognac country. Airport catering here is aimed at business aviation and general aviation, with a small terminal and straightforward FBO services.

Business aviation

Angoulême works as a business aviation hub for the cognac trade and the regional industry. Inflight catering and in-flight catering here lean on local produce, aviation catering and business aviation catering stay compact, executive jet catering suits owner trips, diplomatic flight catering is cleared by protocol, and cabin crew meals are boxed apart. On the ramp, FBO services and ground handling services are small and personal, so the crew and the handler usually know each other by name.

Customs & food import

Customs at Angoulême follow EU rules: local food for an intra-EU flight goes straight to the aircraft. For a non-EU departure, import rules at the arrival country matter, particularly for meat and dairy, and we adapt the order to avoid refusal.

★★★★★LARGE CABIN

“A request for a breakfast basket with individual preserves, 5 passengers, and a family lunch request: that was our brief for the departure at Angoulême Brie-Champniers airport. Instead of asking us to improvise, The Galley Girls explained how the main courses could be arranged during service. This experience of aviation catering services gave us a useful reference for managing written menu details on another departure. It made a difference to have the desserts ready without cluttering the galley work area during preparation.”

Alessandro E. | Chief flight attendant

Gulfstream G700

★★★★★ROYAL FLIGHT

“Between cabin checks at LFBU, I coordinated roasted vegetable bowls with separate dressings for 9 guests and explained our concerns about an evening cabin service. I want an aviation catering company to understand packing arrangement, and this order gave us a useful starting point. We described our serving sequence to The Galley Girls and asked for the side dishes to be packed accordingly. That left time to check the snack boxes properly before the passengers were ready for the next part of the service.”

Tiago S. | Royal family manager

Global 7500

★★★★★VIP AIRLINER

“Before our guests boarded at ANG, we needed a selection of petits fours and sandwiches divided into 3 portions suitable for an evening cabin service. When comparing aviation catering companies, I would look closely at galley preparation after this experience. The Galley Girls confirmed the handover contact and identified the fruit plates, making the catering delivery easier for our team to track. The crew provisions went straight to the right colleague instead of circulating between several people during the turnaround.”

Rohan B. | Chief cabin officer

Angoulême Brie-Champniers: the questionsAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost for a trip through Angoulême, given French food-import rules?+

Think of price per menu rather than per tray. In Angoulême, local produce keeps the cost sensible: Charente butter, goat cheese and seasonal fruit are cheaper than imported luxuries, and customs never touch them. A seafood plate costs more than a salad.

What is the lead time for private jet catering at Angoulême, with a small jet's galley?+

At Brie-Champniers most aircraft are light jets, so the order is easy by nature: cold plates, one hot dish, sauce apart. Last-minute orders are handled; the only real constraint is what your oven can hold.

Do customs affect private jet catering at Angoulême when the weather window changes departures?+

Fog on the Charente plateau can move a departure, and when it does, our food is handed over at the new slot. EU customs do not apply to locally sourced meals; a non-EU destination may restrict meat and dairy, so we pack with that in mind.

Can you bring food on board at Angoulême for the return leg?+

Bringing your own food is possible, though the return leg is better ordered with us at LFBU: one invoice, one handover, with each box marked by seat number. For a non-EU return, local rules apply to meat and dairy.

Is catering part of a charter departing Angoulême at night or early morning?+

No: a private jet charter and catering are two different orders. For an early morning departure from ANG, we pack the night before and meet you at the aircraft, all invoiced like any other order.
