Private jet catering at Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport (LIEO / OLB), Olbia (SS)

Catering to your aircraft in Olbia (SS).

In July and August the apron at Olbia fills with large cabins on short turns, and the slot decides what can be cooked and what travels cold. We pack for the galley you have and hand over at the aircraft.

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.

The local tableCooked so it travels

Inflight catering with the flavours of Olbia (SS) (OLB)

Sardinia keeps its own pantry, and it travels well. Carasau, the thin shepherd's bread, stays crisp in a sealed bag and replaces rolls that go limp in a hot cabin. Pecorino sardo is cut per seat and packed away from the fruit. Bottarga from Cabras is shaved at service, so it rides in its own pot.

A private jet menu out of Olbia leans on what the island does best: fish from the northeast coast, myrtle-scented roast meat served cold, and seadas, which only work if the honey comes apart from the pastry. An inflight menu built on local specialities should say plainly which dishes need the oven and which never do.

Private jet food at LIEO in summer follows one rule: cream and raw fish travel with extra cold and an honest note on how long they can wait. Between the guest trays, the crew meals from the same island sit in their own box, portioned for the jumpseat.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport (LIEO)

The ramp at Olbia in August is a long line of tails with no room to move, and private jet catering at LIEO is judged by what still looks right after a hot apron and a late slot. We are former VIP flight attendants. Executive jet catering for a Friday owner arrival and diplomatic flight catering for a summit weekend start from the same question: what does your galley hold, and when does the aircraft actually move?

Business aviationOur core

Business jet catering at Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport for VIP flights

Business jet catering at Olbia is mostly a Friday arrival and a Sunday departure: a light brunch on the way out, a cold supper on the way back. Corporate jet catering follows the same rhythm outside the season, with fewer seats and more working lunches. For charter flight catering and VIP flight catering we agree the menu with you before the slot, so the private jet chef cooks to the tail's oven and not to a generic plan. Ask for a bespoke menu built on Sardinian produce when the guests want to taste the island, or luxury inflight catering that stays neutral for a long return leg.

State & royalDiscretion, protocol

Inflight catering for government and royal flights at Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport

Government flight catering at Olbia is rare but real, usually during summits and private visits on the island. For head of state flight catering and state visit aircraft catering, the menu is cleared with the protocol office before anything is cooked, ingredients are traceable, and one named person handles the order. VIP aviation catering here also means discretion at the handover: the lids carry seat numbers, never names.

Dietary requirements and aviation catering at Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport (LIEO)

On Sardinia the hidden gluten is in the bread, the fregola and the semolina pasta, and a flour-dusted board can undo a careful plate. Gluten free orders at Olbia are cooked on clean surfaces and sealed in their own box. We pack special meals the same way: kosher, halal, vegan, allergen free and kids meals each get their own container, a restriction card and a seat number, with reheating written on the lid. Tell us the allergen and we will tell you which local dishes are safe and which are not.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Pilot meals and crew meals at Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport (OLB)

Crew meals at Olbia are an item you ask for with the trip and pay for like any other line. A summer turn often means waiting on a hot apron, so flight crew meals travel sealed and cold-friendly. Pilot meals and cockpit meals are packed to eat with one hand, with different meals for pilots on request: captain and first officer each get their own dish, labelled CREW. Crew catering and cabin crew meals can arrive with the guest trays, in separate crew meal boxes.

DeliveryEvery FBO

Airport catering delivered to the FBO at Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport (LIEO)

FBO catering at Olbia depends on when your slot falls and how busy the general aviation terminal is. Catering delivery to the FBO is arranged around your arrival time, and we coordinate with your handling agent for airside access so the boxes reach the aircraft without waiting at the gate. Ground handling catering is cleaner when you send the tail number and the expected block time early. Handling agent catering on peak Saturdays can stack up, so tell us if your slot is tight and we will plan the handover with that in mind. Order ten hours ahead where you can; last-minute orders are handled.

High loader and aircraft provisioning: aviation catering at Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport

A Global or Gulfstream at Olbia is loaded through the main door with trolleys or carried boxes, while larger aircraft may need a high loader on the apron. Galley catering depends on the aircraft type: how many ovens, how much drawer space, whether there is a chiller. We pack airside catering delivery to match, and aircraft provisioning can include extra ice and cold packs in July and August. Tell us the type and we will say what the galley can take.

About the airportLIEO / OLB

Aviation catering and business aviation at Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport (OLB)

Olbia Costa Smeralda serves the Emerald Coast, and in summer it behaves like a business aviation hub: general aviation traffic, FBO services and ground handling services packed into a few intense months. Airport catering here follows the calendar. Business aviation catering for a July weekend is a different job from a quiet February lunch for two pilots and one passenger.

Business aviation

Traffic peaks from June to September, with weekend waves and extra movements around regattas and coast events. Apron space is limited, so slots shift and evening departures are common.

Customs & food import

Italy is in the EU and Schengen. Flights from non-EU origins clear customs, and meat and dairy products of animal origin from outside the EU are restricted. Catering uplifted locally is cleared without difficulty, so on international legs we recommend ordering from Olbia rather than carrying food in.

★★★★★LIGHT JET

“Several practical details needed attention at Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport, with mushroom risotto and a green salad requested for 5 guests and a revised passenger count to accommodate. For private jet meals, that attention to storage requirements made the order noticeably easier to manage. We described our serving sequence to The Galley Girls and asked for the breakfast portions to be packed accordingly. We left the snack boxes stored until needed, which kept the first service manageable and reduced unnecessary handling.”

Lars X. | VIP flight attendant

Learjet 75

★★★★★BUSINESS JET

“Working around a short ground stop at LIEO, I asked for grilled salmon with a lemon dressing in portions appropriate for our 5 passengers. The Galley Girls confirmed the handover contact and identified the desserts, making the catering delivery easier for our team to track. Knowing where the snack boxes were packed meant the crew could begin the relevant checks as soon as the order arrived. My main takeaway from this private jet menu order was the practical approach to galley preparation.”

Andre N. | VIP flight attendant

Global 6000

★★★★★LARGE CABIN

“Rather than an elaborate service at OLB, our 7 guests wanted a seafood starter and warm vegetable sides, organised sensibly around a family lunch request. The Galley Girls prepared the fruit plates for assembly in the galley, with the accompanying elements easy to locate. Keeping the breakfast portions aside until service helped preserve the presentation while we dealt with the boarding tasks. I want a private jet chef to understand final order confirmation, and this order gave us a useful starting point.”

Olbia (SS) in five questionsAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost at Olbia for a large cabin or a light jet?+

It depends on the aircraft type and the size of its galley: a Challenger with one oven takes fewer hot dishes than a Global with a full galley, and the order changes with it. A cold Sardinian supper for six costs less than a hot multi-course menu for the same number. Send the tail and the seat count and we quote the actual order.

What is the lead time for a kosher or allergen request at Olbia?+

Special meals need more care than a standard order, so we ask for notice as early as you can give it: ten hours where possible, and more if the diet needs separate preparation. Last-minute orders are handled, but a kosher or allergen meal is the one thing we would rather not rush.

How does customs affect catering at Olbia with a handling agent?+

Your handling agent arranges airside access, and food delivered to the aircraft goes through the same checks as any supply. Give us the tail and the slot early so the agent can clear the delivery before the crew are on the ramp.

Can you bring food into Italy on a private flight?+

Italy follows EU rules: meat and dairy of animal origin from outside the EU is restricted, and leftover catering from such flights may have to be disposed of. That is why most crews order fresh from Olbia instead of carrying food in.

Is catering part of a charter for a delegation flight into Olbia?+

No. Catering is not part of the charter, even for a delegation or government flight: it is ordered separately and invoiced on its own. For official flights we add the protocol clearance and the named contact, but the order still comes to us.
