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

Regional dishes of Recea for jet catering at TGM

Mureş County cooks the way the plateau eats: smoked pork, sheep's cheese, sour soups, cabbage in every form. A private jet menu for Recea can use all of that, if each dish is chosen for how it travels. Ciorbă de burtă and other soups stay in sealed containers with a lid that holds. Sarmale, the stuffed cabbage rolls, are the one dish that actually improves after a night, so they suit an early rotation well. Papanași, the fried cheese doughnuts with sour cream and jam, travel with the sour cream and the jam apart.

Our inflight menu for the area starts with local specialities that survive a galley: sarmale with polenta, grilled cabanos, telemea and urdă cheeses, and mămăligă that re-plates in a few seconds. Private jet food at Târgu Mureş often means pastry too, from cozonac to plăcinte with cheese or cabbage, packed as private jet snacks for the cabin. Private jet platters of cured meat and Transylvanian cheese stay chilled until you re-plate. Every gourmet inflight meal is cooked fresh in Mureş County and marked by seat.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Târgu Mureş Transilvania International Airport (LRTM)

Târgu Mureş Transilvania International sits on the Transylvanian plateau at 963 ft, with its terminal in the commune of Recea and a rhythm set by the seasons: winter fog on one side, summer festival traffic on the other. Private jet catering at LRTM is written for that calendar, with local Mureş County produce packed for the galley you actually have, from inflight catering for a small turboprop to aviation catering for a midsize jet. For business aviation catering, executive jet catering or the odd diplomatic flight catering request, we cook and label per seat, and the cabin crew meals travel in their own marked box.

Business aviation catering at Târgu Mureş Transilvania International Airport (TGM)

Business jet catering at Târgu Mureş is usually a small party in a light or midsize jet, flying in for industry or a regional meeting. Corporate jet catering here means a clear brief: the galley type, the menu and the slot. VIP flight catering takes local sheep's cheese and smoked pork as seriously as imported fish, and charter flight catering follows the same plan. Luxury inflight catering starts with a private jet chef and a bespoke menu written around your passengers.

Halal, kosher and kids meals: inflight catering at Târgu Mureş Transilvania International Airport (TGM)

Special meals at Târgu Mureş mean working around a cuisine built on pork, lard, dairy and flour. Kosher meals are sealed, certified and kept apart from the guest trays. Halal is cooked without pork and without lard in a separate pan, and vegan dishes are based on beans, mushrooms and root vegetables rather than a vegetable plate. Gluten free and allergen free meals avoid the bread and sour cream that Transylvanian recipes hide in sauces, and kids meals are simple and plated flat. Every dietary request is a written procedure, with the seat number on the lid.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Pilot meals and crew meals at Târgu Mureş Transilvania International Airport (TGM)

Crew meals at Târgu Mureş are ordered on request and invoiced like the rest, often for a crew that stays in the cockpit through a short turnaround. Flight crew meals can be hot or cold, boxed so they eat with one hand. Pilot meals are packed separately, because the captain and first officer should not share a dish. Crew catering is marked CREW, cockpit meals travel in a flat tray, and crew meal boxes are sealed. Different meals for pilots are available on request, and cabin crew meals are boxed apart from the guest food.

FBO delivery and FBO catering at Târgu Mureş Transilvania International Airport (TGM)

On this field the FBO is a small desk with a short walk to the apron. FBO catering is delivered there, and the handling agent takes it to the aircraft. The general aviation terminal accepts catering delivery to the FBO on your slot, and ground handling catering is coordinated with the agent. Handling agent catering is the same at every airport: one order, one handover.

Aircraft provisioning for large cabins: airport catering at Târgu Mureş Transilvania International Airport

Aircraft type decides how the food gets on board. Light jets and turboprops at Târgu Mureş take galley catering by hand at the cabin door, in boxes sized to the drawer. A larger jet needs a high loader for airside catering delivery, so we check the door height and the galley layout with your handling agent before the aircraft provisioning is packed. Heavy or tall trolleys stay behind if the aircraft cannot take them.

About the airportLRTM / TGM

About Târgu Mureş Transilvania International Airport (TGM): airport catering for business aviation

Târgu Mureş Transilvania International opened for scheduled flights and serves the city and the Mureş valley from its site at Recea. It is a single-runway airport at 963 ft, with a small terminal that also receives private traffic. Airport catering here is quiet and local.

Business aviation

Business aviation at Târgu Mureş is steady, not heavy: industrial visitors, medical flights and summer event traffic. Inflight catering and in-flight catering for these flights are packed for small galleys, and aviation catering is built around the aircraft. Business aviation catering and executive jet catering follow the same plan, diplomatic flight catering is rare but handled with protocol, and cabin crew meals are boxed apart. General aviation and FBO services here are simple, and ground handling services are provided by the handling agent. It is a business aviation hub only for the region, but a useful one.

Customs & food import

Romania is an EU member, so EU rules on meat, dairy and animal products apply to catering loaded here. Flights to non-EU destinations need extra care with documentation. Tell us the route and we adjust the menu.

★★★★★BUSINESS JET
“An order of vegetable tartlets and a dessert selection for 2 people at LRTM had to be organised around two separate meal services. Our brief for private jet catering services was met with a sensible plan for packing arrangement. We described our serving sequence to The Galley Girls and asked for the sauces to be packed accordingly. The starters were reserved for the next stage, so the worktop stayed clear while we prepared the initial dishes.”
Omar S. | VIP flight attendant
Global 7500
★★★★★VIP AIRLINER
“Before our guests boarded at TGM, we needed fresh fruit and breakfast pastries divided into 9 portions suitable for a short ground stop. I asked The Galley Girls for the sauces in divided catering boxes, with garnishes supplied separately for plating on board. Keeping the desserts aside until service helped preserve the presentation while we dealt with the boarding tasks. I want a private jet catering company to understand final order confirmation, and this order gave us a useful starting point.”
Victoria F. | Chief cabin officer — BBJ
ACJ319
★★★★★GOVERNMENT
“On this departure from Târgu Mureş Transilvania International Airport, 9 passengers had chosen fresh fruit and breakfast pastries, and a late menu amendment needed to be reflected in the order. The Galley Girls confirmed the handover contact and identified the breakfast portions, making the catering delivery easier for our team to track. Knowing where the desserts were packed meant the crew could begin the relevant checks as soon as the order arrived. When comparing private jet catering companies, I would look closely at catering handover after this experience.”

Târgu Mureş Transilvania International: the questionsAsked by crews
How much does private jet catering cost for a small jet flying out of LRTM?+

Think of it as three questions: how many seats, how much galley, and how local the menu is. A cold platter of Mureş cheeses and cured pork for six passengers is a different order from sarmale and goulash for a full cabin. We quote after the aircraft type is known.

What is the lead time for an early morning or night departure from Târgu Mureş?+

Early departures at LRTM tend to be simple: the apron is empty, the FBO is staffed for the slot, and customs handling is straightforward. What makes an order easy is a clear menu and a known galley. We take the order by phone or email, 24/7, and last-minute requests are handled.

What do customs mean for food on a long leg out of Romania?+

Customs for catering here is mainly about animal products and where they are going next. Most Transylvanian dishes use pork, dairy or lard, so we choose with the route in mind. Sealed, labelled and portioned is the rule on every long flight.

Can you bring food on board yourself for a kosher or allergen request at TGM?+

If a passenger insists on their own meal, put it with the crew's own food, not in the guest drawer. We would rather make it, because local Transylvanian cooking uses lard and flour in places a diner would not see.

Is catering part of a charter into Târgu Mureş, for a private jet charter?+

No. Catering is not part of the charter: the aircraft is one contract, the food is another. You order it with us for this tail and this slot, and it is invoiced as its own order, local Transylvanian dishes included.
