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.

Húsavík on the plate: local specialities for in-flight catering at HZK

The Northeastern Region of Iceland gives a private jet menu at Húsavík a clear identity: cold-water fish, lamb from the highland farms, and dairy that is genuinely local. Our private jet menu for BIHU is built from local specialities that survive a galley: smoked arctic char on rye, Icelandic lamb served cold or finished in the oven, and skyr with berries. An inflight menu here is short on purpose. Private jet food from Húsavík works best when each dish is portioned per seat and labelled by guest. Private jet platters of fish and cheese suit a whale-watching group, gourmet inflight meals suit the longer leg south, and private jet snacks (flatkaka with smoked trout, dried fish, chocolate) fill the gaps. The Húsavík region is small, so we keep the choice tight and the quality high.

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

The apron at Húsavík (HZK) is small, the weather off Skjálfandi bay changes fast, and most visiting aircraft are light or midsize jets. Private jet catering here means short, practical menus: arctic char, lamb, rye bread, skyr. In-flight catering is delivered to the FBO or your handling agent, with cabin crew meals on request and invoiced like the rest of the order. Executive jet catering, business aviation catering and diplomatic flight catering into BIHU follow the same plain process, and inflight catering for a late-evening departure under the midnight sun is no different.

Business aviationOur core

Business jet & VIP jet catering at Húsavík Airport

Business jet catering at Húsavík usually means four to eight guests on a light or midsize jet, arriving for a whale-watching day or heading on to Akureyri or Reykjavik. Corporate jet catering here is short and clear: a cold fish course, a lamb dish that finishes in the oven, and skyr. VIP flight catering, charter flight catering and luxury inflight catering all follow the same plan. Our private jet chef writes a bespoke menu for the galley you have, because a turboprop galley cannot carry what a midsize jet can.

State & royalDiscretion, protocol

Diplomatic and state visit aviation catering in Húsavík (BIHU)

When a government aircraft calls at BIHU, the protocol office decides the menu, not the kitchen. Government flight catering, head of state flight catering and state visit aircraft catering are prepared by a named team and delivered sealed. VIP aviation catering follows the same discretion at HZK.

Special meals

Special meals for every diet: in-flight catering at Húsavík Airport

Dietary requests at Húsavík are handled as a procedure built around Icelandic cooking. Fish, dairy and wheat sit in many local dishes, so allergen free and gluten free meals are prepared on a separate board and packed in sealed, labelled boxes by seat number. Kosher and halal special meals are sourced and sealed so they reach the cabin unopened, vegan plates replace the lamb and skyr, and kids meals stay mild and simple. Tell us the restriction with the order and we write the card for your galley.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meals & pilot meals at Húsavík Airport

Crew meals at Húsavík are ordered on request, invoiced like the rest of the order, and packed apart from the guest trays. Flight crew meals are labelled CREW; pilot meals can be two different dishes when the operator asks for it. Crew catering for the Mývatn circuit or a long positioning leg uses crew meal boxes that can be eaten one-handed. Cockpit meals are simple: lamb soup or a fish sandwich. We prepare different meals for pilots when needed, and cabin crew meals travel in the same delivery.

DeliveryEvery FBO

FBO delivery and FBO catering at Húsavík Airport (HZK)

FBO catering at Húsavík is delivered to the general aviation terminal or straight to the aircraft, depending on your handling agent. Catering delivery to the FBO is arranged with the same agent who handles fuel and the apron, so ground handling catering never needs a second contact. Handling agent catering is booked with the flight, and the handover happens at the aircraft on your slot.

Large cabin jet catering with a high loader at Húsavík Airport (HZK)

At Húsavík the aircraft type decides the loading: light jets and turboprops take galley catering by hand through the door, while larger aircraft need airside catering delivery on a lift. Tell us the type and we plan aircraft provisioning around its galley, whether that means one oven, a drawer or only a cold box.

About the airportBIHU / HZK

General aviation and airport catering at Húsavík Airport (HZK)

Húsavík Airport (BIHU) is a small general aviation field serving a coastal town on the northeast coast of Iceland. Airport catering here has to fit a modest apron and a limited terminal, and most business jets stop only briefly, so a compact pre-packed order is the practical choice.

Business aviation

Summer at HZK brings small jets and tour operators, a thin slice of general aviation that peaks around whale season; winter brings mostly silence and the odd medevac. Inflight catering and in-flight catering are ordered per movement. Business aviation catering and executive jet catering suit the light jets that use the field, aviation catering covers positioning flights, cabin crew meals and crew meals come with the order on request, and diplomatic flight catering is available too. It is a quiet business aviation hub with FBO services and ground handling services on call, and the FBO is the usual handover point.

Customs & food import

Iceland sits in the European Economic Area but sets its own rules on importing raw meat, eggs and dairy, which matters for general aviation crews arriving from abroad. Food prepared locally and sealed is fine to load; anything brought in from outside is checked on arrival. Ask your handling agent about customs for international departures from Húsavík.

★★★★★LIGHT JET

“Small packing details became important at Húsavík Airport: our 2 passengers wanted beef fillet with roasted potatoes, and we had a revised passenger count. The Galley Girls gave us an update on the snack boxes before the handover, which helped us organise the cabin checks. Our brief for private jet catering services was met with a sensible plan for catering handover. The main courses went straight to the right colleague instead of circulating between several people during the turnaround.”

★★★★★CREW MEALS

“For 5 passengers departing from BIHU, the agreed menu was yoghurt pots and fresh berries; our main consideration was different crew meal preferences. I want a private jet catering company to understand final order confirmation, and this order gave us a useful starting point. We changed the quantities of crew provisions, and The Galley Girls reflected the request in the final packing list. The starters remained as originally requested, which was reassuring when we checked the latest version with operations.”

★★★★★GOVERNMENT

“Several practical details needed attention at HZK, with a breakfast basket with individual preserves requested for 5 guests and a revised passenger count to accommodate. When comparing private jet catering companies, I would look closely at packing arrangement after this experience. We discussed the dimensions before confirming; The Galley Girls grouped the snack boxes into separate meal boxes that were easy to handle. We placed the main courses in their planned storage area without first having to reorganise all the catering boxes.”

Asked before every BIHU slotAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost when a kosher or allergen meal is on the order into Húsavík?+

Special meals set the bill here. A gluten free lamb dish at Húsavík needs its own prep, so it is quoted above a skyr cup or smoked trout canapés. Share the restrictions and we price private jet catering to the menu.

What is the lead time for private jet catering at Húsavík on a long leg with two services on board?+

If your flight out of BIHU has a lunch and a later snack, say so with the order. Lead time then covers two packs, one chilled and one for the oven. Late changes are accepted, and last-minute orders are handled.

What should I know about customs for catering on a night departure from Húsavík?+

Night flights leave Húsavík with food that was cooked locally, so nothing is imported. Customs rules mainly concern arrivals, where uncooked meat, eggs and dairy from outside Iceland are restricted. The FBO or handling agent will confirm the formalities for your slot.

Can you bring food of your own on a light jet out of Húsavík, given the galley size?+

Yes, though the aircraft type matters: a turboprop with one drawer holds far less than a midsize jet. For BIHU we pack to the galley, so bringing food too may crowd the space. Customs limits apply to raw animal products entering Iceland.

Is catering part of a charter into Húsavík when the turnaround is short?+

Catering is separate from the charter: you order it with us and it is invoiced on its own. A short stop in Húsavík does not change that; it only affects how we plan the handover.
