Catering to your aircraft in Salekhard.
Winter ramps, white nights and Yamal rotations set the pace at Salekhard. Our former VIP flight attendants prepare each order for your galley and deliver it to the aircraft through your handling agent.
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.
The Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug has its own table, and it travels well in a galley. A private jet menu for Salekhard can lean on muksun and nelma, whitefish from the Ob, served cold as thin slices or hot as a pan-seared fillet. The inflight menu can add reindeer, either as a carpaccio that stays chilled or as a braised dish that finishes in the oven. Private jet food from the tundra also means cloudberries, cranberries and lingonberries, which sharpen a dessert without needing cooking on board. Local specialities here are chosen for how they survive a cold ramp: sealed trays, sauce apart, nothing delicate on top. For Salekhard we build private jet platters of smoked and salted fish, pickled mushrooms and rye, gourmet inflight meals around reindeer and Ob river fish, and private jet snacks with dried berries and pine nuts.
What counts as local in Salekhard is the river and the tundra: Ob whitefish, reindeer, wild mushrooms and northern berries. Our private jet menu for USDD turns them into plates that make sense at altitude. The inflight menu keeps the delicate fish chilled and the heavier meat for the oven. Private jet food from Yamal is salty, smoked and sharp, so the sweet side comes from cloudberry and lingonberry. These local specialities from the Yamalo-Nenets region are packed by guest and by seat, ready for re-plating. Private jet platters carry smoked muksun and rye, gourmet inflight meals follow reindeer and potato, and private jet snacks stay simple: berries, nuts, dark chocolate.

Salekhard sits on the Arctic Circle, and the apron at USDD can be minus thirty in January while the cabin still wants a fresh plate. Private jet catering here is built around that cold: sealed boxes, sauce in its own pot, nothing that freezes on the walk to the stairs. Inflight catering for Yamal rotations, in-flight catering for charters, and aviation catering for the crew are all ordered the same way, 24/7. For business aviation catering, executive jet catering and diplomatic flight catering at SLY, we write the menu around your galley, and cabin crew meals go in the same order.
Business jet catering at Salekhard is usually a short, specific brief: executives going out to gas and oil sites, a charter bringing guests in. Corporate jet catering here means sealed, cold-weather-proof trays; VIP flight catering adds a private jet chef and a bespoke menu, charter flight catering fits an unknown galley, and luxury inflight catering uses Ob fish and tundra berries.
Official visits to the Yamal region mean a named team and an approved menu. Government flight catering, head of state flight catering, VIP aviation catering and state visit aircraft catering at Salekhard are all handled with traceability and discretion.
Special meals at Salekhard start with where allergens hide in a northern kitchen: fish stocks, pine nuts, cream in the traditional sauces. Kosher and halal plates are prepared apart and sealed, vegan and gluten free meals are built from tundra vegetables, mushrooms and grain rather than substituted at the end, allergen free trays travel in their own box, and kids meals are simple and clearly marked by seat.

When the crew stays on the aircraft at USDD, crew meals are something they should not have to think about. We pack flight crew meals, pilot meals and crew catering on request and bill them as a normal line. Cockpit meals travel in sealed boxes, crew meal boxes are marked CREW, and different meals for pilots are available for captain and first officer. Order them with the flight, not after.
FBO catering at Salekhard means the order is handed over at the FBO or the general aviation terminal, then carried to the aircraft. Catering delivery to the FBO goes through your handling agent, ground handling catering is coordinated for access, and handling agent catering covers the apron rules at USDD.
Large aircraft at Salekhard are served by high loader at the apron, and cold weather matters more than height: trays are loaded sealed and quickly insulated. Galley catering is matched to the aircraft's galley, airside catering delivery goes through your handling agent, and aircraft provisioning for an Arctic stop includes extra thermal packaging.

USDD is a northern airport with a real winter: snow, low sun, long nights. Airport catering here accounts for cold ramps and short daylight, and the general aviation side handles charter and business traffic.
Business aviation at Salekhard is driven by energy and regional travel. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering are ordered the same way for every flight, business aviation catering and executive jet catering cover corporate teams, diplomatic flight catering covers official visits, and cabin crew meals are added as a separate line. FBO services and ground handling services are arranged through your handling agent, and the general aviation side makes Salekhard a small business aviation hub for Yamal.
Import rules in Russia limit certain meats, dairy and fresh produce. Ordering locally at USDD means the food is already cleared, which makes the aircraft's declaration simpler.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“Several practical details needed attention at SLY, with a cheese board and savoury canapés requested for 9 guests and two separate meal services to accommodate. The cabin service sequence stood out more than any sales pitch about FBO catering. The Galley Girls understood why we wanted the fruit plates readily accessible instead of spread across several different boxes. We left the desserts stored until needed, which kept the first service manageable and reduced unnecessary handling.”
“Service planning came first at Salekhard Airport, with 12 passengers choosing a seafood starter and warm vegetable sides and a late menu amendment influencing our preparation. I needed the side dishes checked against the revised brief; The Galley Girls answered without sending us through another lengthy exchange. We checked the breakfast portions against the same summary, keeping the cabin team and the handling contact aligned. With airport catering, careful attention to galley preparation matters as much to our crew as the menu itself.”
“Before our guests boarded at USDD, we needed herb chicken with a quinoa salad divided into 9 portions suitable for a late menu amendment. With several people involved, The Galley Girls kept the side dishes and delivery arrangements together in a concise order update. Knowing where the sandwiches were packed meant the crew could begin the relevant checks as soon as the order arrived. With inflight catering, careful attention to catering handover matters as much to our crew as the menu itself.”
Two services on a long Yamal leg means two sets of trays, and the cost of private jet catering follows what is on them: Ob whitefish, reindeer, imported produce. Simple breakfast boxes sit low, a full tasting of northern fish sits high. We quote per menu, not per tray.
A long turnaround gives room for a hot course; a short one means cold plates and boxed crew meals. Either way the lead time here is shaped by Arctic weather and the slot, not by a fixed rule, and last-minute orders are handled.
Customs on the return side depends on where you land. Ordering from Salekhard gives you northern fish and berries that travel under local paperwork, which usually makes it simpler than carrying food in. Ask your handling agent about anything imported.
Bringing your own is allowed on most flights, but when the number changes at USDD we recommend ordering with a margin. We pack extra boxes in the same style, so an added passenger gets a seat-numbered plate instead of improvised leftovers.
The charter contract covers the flight, not the plates. Catering for Salekhard is requested separately; cloudberry dessert or reindeer main are the products people ask about most.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
