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

Jerez de la Frontera on the plate: local specialities for in-flight catering at XRY

Jerez de la Frontera is sherry country, and the private jet menu for Jerez Airport starts from that. Fino and manzanilla stay in the bottle for the crew, but sherry vinegar and amontillado turn up in dressings and sauces that travel well in a small pot. Local specialities from Andalucía share the galley space: cured Iberian ham carved thin by the kitchen and packed in layers, tortillitas de camarones, and Cádiz tuna served as a tartare or a seared loin.

For an inflight menu out of LEJR, cold dishes do most of the work. Gazpacho and salmorejo are poured into sealed cups, Andalucía is a region of citrus and olive oil, and private jet food built on them keeps its taste at altitude. Hot dishes come from the same tradition: oxtail braised in sherry, pork from the sierra, grilled sea bream with the sauce apart. Every local speciality is packed with its finishing instruction and the seat number on the lid.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Jerez Airport (LEJR)

Before a single menu is written for Jerez de la Frontera, we ask which aircraft is parked at LEJR and who is on the jumpseat. Private jet catering here leans on what Andalucía does well in daylight heat: cold soups, chilled seafood, grilled meat that finishes in a small oven. In-flight catering for business aviation catering requests follows the same logic, and the dishes stay plain enough for one flight attendant to re-plate alone.

Business jet catering handover at Jerez de la Frontera, LEJR

Business aviationOur core

Private jet catering in Jerez de la Frontera for business and VIP flights (XRY)

For business jet catering at Jerez de la Frontera, the brief usually arrives with an event attached: a bodega visit, a race weekend, a wedding in the campiña. Corporate jet catering is written from the aircraft type and the passenger list, and VIP flight catering keeps labels and paperwork discreet. Charter flight catering for the same field follows the galley you actually have, so our private jet chef drafts a bespoke menu around cold plates, one tray of finished dishes and a sauce kept in its own pot. Luxury inflight catering here means in-flight catering that one flight attendant can plate alone, with olive oil, citrus and sherry vinegar doing the work.

Government flight catering for a state visit aircraft at Jerez Airport, XRY

State & royalDiscretion, protocol

State visit and VIP aviation catering at Jerez Airport

State visit aircraft catering at Jerez is uncommon, so each request is handled by named staff from the first message. For government flight catering the menu goes through protocol before anything is cooked, and head of state flight catering keeps every item traceable from kitchen to cabin door. VIP aviation catering on XRY's quiet apron means discretion: sealed boxes, seat numbers rather than names, and a clean handover at the aircraft. We keep the aviation catering paperwork tidy so the handling agent has nothing to chase.

Special meals & dietary requirements: in-flight catering at Jerez Airport

In Jerez de la Frontera the allergen risks hide in the local classics: gluten in the flour that fries the fish, nuts in picada and almond sauces, shellfish in the stock. Kosher, halal, vegan and gluten free requests are set up as a procedure in a separate box, with its own board and utensils, and special meals carry the seat number only. For allergen free orders we rewrite the dish rather than remove an ingredient, and kids meals follow the same rule: plain, labelled, and packed apart from the guest trays.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meals for pilots and cabin crew at Jerez Airport (XRY)

At Jerez, flight crew meals are a separate request, billed as any other item. Crew catering for a short Andalusian hop means light dishes; pilot meals and cockpit meals are packed in crew meal boxes so nothing spills. We offer different meals for pilots, and cabin crew meals are marked CREW and handed over with the guest order.

DeliveryEvery FBO

FBO delivery and FBO catering at Jerez Airport (XRY)

At XRY the FBO is the handover point. FBO catering is coordinated with your handling agent, and catering delivery to the FBO at the general aviation terminal ends at the aircraft steps. Ground handling catering and handling agent catering are set out in the order, so nobody discovers a closed gate on arrival.

Galley-door delivery and aviation catering at Jerez Airport (XRY)

Most traffic at LEJR is light and midsize jets, where galley catering fits a trolley and a few cold boxes carried by hand to the cabin door. For a larger airliner-based VIP aircraft, airside catering delivery switches to a high loader through the handling agent. Aircraft provisioning is planned from the type: door height, galley layout and oven count decide how much is cooked and how much is chilled.

About the airportLEJR / XRY

About Jerez Airport (LEJR): aviation catering and general aviation

LEJR is a compact airport in the flat country south of Seville, used by general aviation for racing, wine and golf weekends. Airport catering here is simple to coordinate, FBO services are limited and clear, and ground handling services follow Spanish airport rules.

Business aviation

General aviation at Jerez peaks around events, and business aviation hub status is earned only on those weeks. Inflight catering and in-flight catering are written for light jets; aviation catering and business aviation catering use local produce. Executive jet catering and diplomatic flight catering are handled by the same team, and cabin crew meals are listed separately.

Customs & food import

Customs at LEJR apply EU and Spanish food import rules. Anything arriving from outside the EU may be checked or refused, which is why we build menus from Spanish and Andalusian ingredients. Tell us where your aircraft arrives from and we plan around it.

★★★★★VIP AIRLINER

“Having 9 guests request a light pasta dish with grilled vegetables at XRY meant planning the portions carefully while accounting for a family lunch request. For our team, the strongest part of their in-flight catering was how they handled portion planning. The Galley Girls used a readable packing list for the snack boxes, which helped when two colleagues checked the order together. Keeping the starters identifiable helped the colleague taking over service understand the order without another long explanation.”

Mikkel P. | Chief cabin officer

BBJ

★★★★★LARGE CABIN

“Working around several individual meal preferences at Jerez Airport, I asked for herb chicken with a quinoa salad in portions appropriate for our 9 passengers. The order made vip inflight catering feel manageable because the portion planning had been considered beforehand. Instead of asking us to improvise, The Galley Girls explained how the sandwiches could be arranged during service. We could finish the starters as each guest was ready, rather than laying everything out at once.”

Joao A. | Chief cabin officer — private jet

Global 7500

★★★★★ROYAL FLIGHT

“It was the packing plan I cared about at LEJR, with 8 servings of mini sandwiches and individual desserts and a small galley worktop to consider. I gave The Galley Girls our storage brief and asked for the side dishes to arrive in sealed meal containers. The canapés were easy to locate, leaving the crew free to focus on the remaining cabin preparation. The packing arrangement stood out more than any sales pitch about private jet catering.”

Before you order at LEJRAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost at Jerez when the passenger count changes at the last minute?+

Price here is a sum of lines. Counts that change late add or remove lines, and last-minute changes are accepted. Ask for the cost of private jet catering for your two menu options and compare line by line.

What is the lead time for catering at Jerez when the handling agent controls airside access?+

Lead time here is one line in a sequence: slot, access, delivery. Send the first two and we handle the third; same-day requests are processed, including on weekends of the horse fair.

How do customs affect inflight catering at Jerez when the season and weather decide departures?+

Spain applies European Union rules on food of animal origin, so products brought from outside the EU can be stopped on arrival. Jerez has strong seasons, and a weather window that shifts a departure also shifts what the galley receives, so we plan menus on local produce that clears without question.

Can you bring food on board at Jerez, or should a local product go on the menu?+

You can, but products from outside the EU may be refused at customs, and a galley with one small oven handles pre-cooked dishes poorly. Ordering a local product such as Iberian ham or sherry-vinegar dressing solves both.

Is catering part of a charter into Jerez if a guest needs a special meal such as kosher or allergen free?+

Charters into XRY do not carry catering by default. For halal, kosher or allergen free requirements, we write the dish around the restriction and invoice it like any other item.
