Catering to your aircraft in Latina.
A light jet on the Latina apron, a galley with one oven and a drawer, a delegation or a crew that wants real Lazio food: that is the trip we plan for. Orders to LIRL are delivered through the FBO or handling agent, 24/7.
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.
Lazio is the region around Latina Air Base, and its Pontine Plain is farmland drained and settled in the 1930s, which is why the local pantry is so fresh and so specific. A private jet menu built here starts with buffalo mozzarella from the plain, kiwi, artichokes in season, Pontine olive oil and bread from the Roman hinterland. For an inflight menu this means cold plates that travel without drama: mozzarella with tomato and basil, cured meats, pecorino romano, and fruit cut per seat. These local specialities make private jet food that still tastes of where you landed, and we pack the private jet platters, gourmet inflight meals and private jet snacks so that the galley only has to re-plate.
Latina in Lazio is buffalo country, and that decides what private jet food looks like on the apron of LIRL. The private jet menu leans on mozzarella di bufala, pecorino romano, porchetta from the Lazio hills, fresh ricotta and kiwi from the plain. An inflight menu from these local specialities needs care: mozzarella travels in its whey, tomatoes stay whole until service, and pasta sauce rides in its own pot. Our private jet platters, gourmet inflight meals and private jet snacks are packed for Lazio's produce, so the crew re-plates instead of cooking.

The Pontine Plain around LIRL grows buffalo mozzarella, kiwi, artichokes and olives, and that is the pantry for private jet catering at Latina Air Base. Because the field is an air base, every delivery goes through your handling agent: our inflight catering and in-flight catering arrive packed by former VIP flight attendants, with aviation catering, business aviation catering, executive jet catering and diplomatic flight catering all handled the same way, and cabin crew meals on request.
Business jet catering at Latina Air Base is usually a corporate or executive stop in Lazio, where the galley is small and the passengers want something that tastes of the region. We write bespoke menus for corporate jet catering, VIP flight catering, charter flight catering and luxury inflight catering, and a private jet chef plans the plates around your oven and chiller.
An air base is a natural place for official flights, and LIRL is no exception. Government flight catering here means a cleared menu, sealed packing and a named team; head of state flight catering, VIP aviation catering and state visit aircraft catering are handled with discretion through the handling agent.
Roman cooking hides its allergens in plain sight: guanciale and pecorino in the pasta, anchovy in the greens, egg and flour in almost every sauce. At Latina we write special meals around that: kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free, allergen free and kids meals are each a separate procedure, cooked and boxed apart from the rest, with the diet marked by seat on the lid. Tell us the restriction and the tail, and the plate is built from scratch rather than adapted from the regular menu.
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.
On a short turn at LIRL, the crew eats last and fast. We prepare crew meals on request, billed with the order: flight crew meals in sturdy boxes, pilot meals that need no cutlery drama, and cockpit meals that hold their shape. Crew catering comes as crew meal boxes, and different meals for pilots are available so captain and first officer never share a dish.
FBO catering at Latina goes through the base access arranged by your handling agent. Catering delivery to the FBO or the general aviation terminal is handed over on your slot, and ground handling catering and handling agent catering are coordinated so the food reaches the aircraft sealed and labelled.
LIRL is an air base, so airside catering delivery here is set up through your handling agent and base access, not at a public ramp gate. The aircraft type decides the rest: a light jet takes galley catering by hand through the door, while a larger cabin may need a high loader or a cart for aircraft provisioning. Give us the type and the galley layout and we pack to what the aircraft can actually hold.

Latina Air Base is a military airfield on the Pontine Plain in Lazio, and airport catering here follows the rules of the base: access is arranged, deliveries are escorted and the apron is not public. General aviation and FBO services at LIRL, like ground handling services, run through your handling agent, who tells us which gate and which hour the food can pass.
Few business aviation hubs sit on a drained marsh, but Latina does: flat, open, low at 94 ft. Ground handling services here are arranged by your agent, and inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering reach the aircraft through them. Business aviation catering, executive jet catering and diplomatic flight catering are routine for us, with cabin crew meals and crew meals ordered on request.
Italy follows EU food-import rules: meat and dairy from outside the EU are restricted, and an air base adds airside access control. Ground handling services at LIRL will want to know the supplier beforehand, which is why ordering locally is simpler than carrying food in.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“Good preparation made the difference at Latina Air Base, where 9 guests expected a breakfast basket with individual preserves despite a changing departure schedule. Our brief for private aviation catering was met with a sensible plan for crew briefing. The Galley Girls gave us an update on the canapés before the handover, which helped us organise the cabin checks. The starters went straight to the right colleague instead of circulating between several people during the turnaround.”
“Packing herb chicken with a quinoa salad for 12 passengers at LIRL needed careful thought, especially given several individual meal preferences. The side dishes supplied by The Galley Girls were straightforward to check against the written menu before the cabin handover. The snack boxes were also listed clearly, which made it easier to pass instructions between crew members during preparation. Our brief for business jet catering was met with a sensible plan for storage requirements.”
“What impressed me at Latina Air Base was how a request for avocado toast components and breakfast fruit was handled despite a family lunch request. The Galley Girls suggested sealed meal containers for the fruit plates, and that choice worked well with our storage arrangement. I could hand the breakfast portions to a colleague with a short explanation instead of unpacking the whole order. Our brief for business aviation catering was met with a sensible plan for meal organisation.”
Price for private jet catering from Latina follows what the aircraft can serve. A small galley limits you to cold platters and one oven item; a large one opens up a tasting menu. Local items such as Pontine kiwi or artichokes affect cost by season. Give us the type and we put a number on a proposed menu.
A kosher, halal, allergen or child's meal changes how a kitchen works, so these requests are best raised as soon as the trip exists. At LIRL, that also lets us arrange the handover with your handling agent. Last-minute orders are handled where the restriction can be met safely.
Think of customs here as a handover chain: supplier, handling agent, base access, aircraft. We pack and label to make each link easy, and your agent confirms access for LIRL. Passengers arriving from outside the EU should ask the agent about any import limits on carried food.
You can carry some food, but EU import rules limit meat and dairy from non-EU origins, and Italian customs can seize what does not comply. Ordering locally for LIRL avoids that question: buffalo mozzarella, cured meats and produce are already within the rules.
Charter pricing does not carry the meals. A delegation flight to Latina means you order catering apart, with traceable ingredients, named staff and discretion. It is invoiced as its own line, and delivered to the aircraft through the base's access procedure.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
