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

The Venegono Superiore (VA) table, packed for private jet catering

The private jet menu at Varese-Venegono leans on Lombardy, the region that frames this airport, and on the lake country just north of Venegono Superiore. Local specialities travel well in a galley when you know how each one finishes: risotto alla milanese is cooked and chilled for re-plating, cotoletta alla milanese is packed crisp and rested uncovered, and lake perch fillets with butter and sage keep their sauce apart.

Every inflight menu we build here starts with private jet food from Lombardy: a risotto, a veal cutlet, a perch fillet, a panettone slice. Private jet platters of Italian salumi and cheeses from the hills around Venegono Superiore sit alongside gourmet inflight meals for the main service, and private jet snacks such as grissini and amaretti cover the short legs. These local specialities are priced per menu, not per tray.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Varese-Venegono Airport (LILN)

Varese-Venegono sits on a hillside strip in Lombardy at 1,100 ft, a field where light jets and turboprops come and go from the general aviation side. Private jet catering here is built for the galley you actually have, delivered to the FBO and signed over at the aircraft. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering at LILN follow the same method: cooked, packed and labelled for re-plating. Business aviation catering and executive jet catering for Venegono Superiore flights carry local produce, while diplomatic flight catering and cabin crew meals are ordered the same way as everything else.

Business aviationOur core

Executive jet catering at Varese-Venegono Airport (LILN)

Business jet catering at Varese-Venegono usually serves small groups on short sectors: four to six seats, one drawer, a small oven or none. Corporate jet catering here is built around a risotto that finishes in the oven, a cotoletta that rests uncovered and a platter that waits in the drawer. VIP flight catering and charter flight catering follow the same method, and luxury inflight catering adds a private jet chef and a bespoke menu written for the passengers and the aircraft type.

Government flight catering and aviation catering at Varese-Venegono Airport (LILN)

When a delegation moves through LILN, the order passes through the protocol office, not just the kitchen. Government flight catering means a named team and sealed containers; head of state flight catering adds traceability; VIP aviation catering and state visit aircraft catering mean discretion at the handover and no names on any label.

Special meals and allergen free inflight catering at Varese-Venegono Airport

Dietary meals at Varese-Venegono are a procedure adapted to Lombard cuisine, not a label on a box. Butter, cream, wheat flour in the risotto base, and nuts in the sweets are where allergens hide here, so we plan around them. Kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free, allergen free, kids meals and other special meals are cooked separately, sealed and marked by seat number, with a separate board and sealed packaging for each restriction.

Crew meal boxes and crew meals at Varese-Venegono Airport

Cockpit meals are packed apart, crew catering is marked CREW, crew meal boxes stay sealed, and different meals for pilots are available when you ask.

DeliveryEvery FBO

FBO delivery and FBO catering at Varese-Venegono Airport (LILN)

At LILN, the food reaches the aircraft through the FBO's apron access. FBO catering means we agree the handover with the handling agent, deliver to the FBO, and the team signs the seals over at the aircraft door. Catering delivery to the general aviation terminal, ground handling catering and handling agent catering are part of the same brief.

High loader and aircraft provisioning: aviation catering at Varese-Venegono Airport

LILN handles light jets and turboprops, so a high loader is rarely needed; galley catering is carried to the aircraft door in sealed containers instead. Airside catering delivery follows the FBO's apron access, and aircraft provisioning matches the galley you have: a drawer, a small oven, or just a cold box. For a larger type visiting from elsewhere, tell us the galley layout and we adapt the load.

About the airportLILN

Aviation catering and business aviation at Varese-Venegono Airport (LILN)

Varese-Venegono is an airport catering stop for light business aviation in Lombardy, a general aviation field that serves flying clubs, corporate turboprops and light jets. FBO services and ground handling services are on the general aviation side, and the airport works as a modest business aviation hub for the Varese area.

Business aviation

Business aviation at LILN is mostly light: turboprops and light jets carrying executives and families to and from the Varese area. Inflight catering and in-flight catering are cold-first, with one hot item. Aviation catering and business aviation catering match the galley you have; executive jet catering and diplomatic flight catering are available for visiting delegations, and cabin crew meals are ordered with the flight.

Customs & food import

Italy follows EU food-import rules: products of animal origin from outside the EU face the strictest checks, while Italian and EU-sourced food passes more simply. Catering is loaded from sealed containers, signed over at the aircraft, and we keep menus inside EU supply when the slot is tight.

★★★★★ROYAL FLIGHT

“One detail shaped our order at Varese-Venegono Airport: a short ground stop, alongside a request for vegetarian wraps and colourful salads for 11 passengers. The Galley Girls suggested shallow trays for the desserts, and that choice worked well with our storage arrangement. Separating the sauces from the first service items helped us avoid opening boxes we did not yet need. For our team, the strongest part of their in flight catering was how they handled packing arrangement.”

Erik H. | Royal family manager

★★★★★CREW MEALS

“Nothing about the 10 guest order at Varese-Venegono Airport called for excess complexity: just avocado toast components and breakfast fruit and sensible planning for a late menu amendment. The starters supplied by The Galley Girls were straightforward to check against the written menu before the cabin handover. We could distinguish the sandwiches at a glance instead of lifting lids just to establish what belonged to each service. I would discuss inflight catering services with them again, especially when final order confirmation needs careful coordination.”

★★★★★BUSINESS JET

“It was the packing plan I cared about at LILN, with 7 servings of a charcuterie board and fresh bread and several individual meal preferences to consider. I asked The Galley Girls for the fruit plates in separate meal boxes, with garnishes supplied separately for plating on board. I want an inflight catering company to understand meal organisation, and this order gave us a useful starting point. Keeping the breakfast portions aside until service helped preserve the presentation while we dealt with the boarding tasks.”

Questions crews ask about Venegono Superiore (VA)Asked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost for a departure from Varese-Venegono?+

The honest answer is a range that depends on the menu. For Varese-Venegono, the biggest swing comes from Italian customs and food-import rules: local products are free of that burden, while out-of-country items are not. Send your menu wishes and we give you a line-by-line price for private jet catering.

What lead time does private jet catering at LILN need for a delegation or government flight?+

Small delegations flying from this hillside field often change plans. We handle last-minute orders for government flights, and the lead time that matters is the one for protocol, security and dietary lists, not the kitchen. Send the tail and the slot and we adjust.

How do customs work for catering at Varese-Venegono on a night departure or early slot?+

A late or early departure at LILN works because the handover is planned: handling agent informed, FBO apron access agreed, seals checked. Italian customs rules apply to anything brought from outside the EU; we keep inflight catering to approved local suppliers for these slots.

Can you bring food on board at Varese-Venegono, and what local product goes on the menu?+

You can bring food, but it must respect Italian and EU import rules, and anything with meat or dairy from outside the EU may be stopped. Most crews prefer to order, because a Lombard product such as Taleggio or lake perch arrives sealed, labelled by seat and already cleared. If a passenger wants something particular, tell us and we source or accommodate it.

Is catering part of a charter into Venegono Superiore, when passenger numbers change at the last minute?+

Not part of a private jet charter into LILN: food is ordered and invoiced separately, like any order. A late change of headcount is common on short flights, so we keep portions flexible, relabel by seat and confirm the final list with you. Contact us 24/7 by phone or email.
