Catering to your aircraft in Arvidsjaur.
ESNX runs on cold-weather programs and charter trips, so food has to arrive sealed, labelled and ready for a galley with little room. We pack it in Sweden and deliver it at the aircraft.
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.
Arvidsjaur is Lapland country, deep in Norrbotten, and the private jet menu here leans on what the north does best: reindeer, Arctic char, lingonberry, cloudberry and tunnbröd. Our inflight menu for Arvidsjaur Airport turns these local specialities into private jet food that survives a cold apron and a galley with one oven. Private jet platters carry smoked reindeer, cured char and Västerbotten cheese, while gourmet inflight meals cover warm mains finished on board. Private jet snacks stay simple: dried reindeer, rye crisps, cloudberry jam. Norrbottena län gives the whole list its character.
Reindeer, char from the northern lakes, lingonberry and cloudberry define the table in Norrbottena län, and we build the private jet menu at Arvidsjaur from them. Private jet platters hold smoked and cured items that travel cold; gourmet inflight meals are cooked, packed and finished in your galley. Private jet snacks round it off with rye bread, cheese and berries. Every local speciality is described the way it will actually leave the box: chilled, sauce apart, or oven-ready. The inflight menu changes with the season, and so does the private jet food list.

Snow on the apron is the normal condition at ESNX, which is why private jet catering for Arvidsjaur starts with what travels well in sub-zero air. Inflight catering and in-flight catering reach the aircraft through your FBO or handling agent. Aviation catering and business aviation catering cover charter, corporate and test flights; executive jet catering and diplomatic flight catering for visiting delegations are briefed in advance. Cabin crew meals are a separate, invoiced line.
Business jet catering and corporate jet catering at Arvidsjaur usually serve small groups, and VIP flight catering follows the guest list. Charter flight catering for private jet charter trips and luxury inflight catering for guests are planned with our private jet chef, who writes a bespoke menu around the aircraft, the season and what your galley can finish.
When a delegation lands at ESNX, government flight catering is arranged through your protocol office. Head of state flight catering, VIP aviation catering and state visit aircraft catering use sealed packing and a named contact, with no names on labels.
Special meals at Arvidsjaur are handled as a procedure, not a label. Kosher and halal orders are sealed in their own packaging, and vegan and gluten free dishes are cooked on separate boards. Allergen free requests matter in a kitchen where dairy, rye and wheat sit in half the local dishes, so we mark each tray by seat. Kids meals are built simple and mild, from the same fresh produce.
A sheet per guest. Separate boards, separate boxes.
Sealed, certificate in the same box.
Their own menu, nothing to cut at altitude.
Vegan, low-carb, light — composed, never compromised.
For the crew, the day in Lapland starts early on a cold ramp. Crew meals and flight crew meals are on request, never assumed, and invoiced with the order. Pilot meals travel in crew meal boxes, crew catering follows the rotation, cockpit meals are eaten within reach of the seat, and different meals for pilots avoid the same dish twice. Cabin crew meals get their own box.
FBO catering at ESNX is handed to the FBO or your handling agent, who opens the right door at the general aviation terminal. Catering delivery to the FBO is planned around your slot, and ground handling catering and handling agent catering follow their access rules on the apron.
The aircraft decides the loading at ESNX: a light jet takes boxes through the cabin door, while a larger business jet may need galley catering brought up with a high loader. We confirm door height and galley layout before packing, and airside catering delivery follows your handling agent's access rules on the apron. Aircraft provisioning is planned around frozen ground and ice, with insulated cases kept closed until they reach the step.

Arvidsjaur Airport is a small Swedish field in Norrbotten, sitting at 1,245 ft, and airport catering here is shaped by a short list of operators and a long cold season. General aviation traffic is modest, so FBO services and ground handling services are close-knit.
Arvidsjaur is not a busy business aviation hub, but winter brings test programs and charter traffic, and inflight catering and in-flight catering follow them. Aviation catering and business aviation catering are planned per aircraft; executive jet catering suits visiting corporate crews; diplomatic flight catering arrives with state or delegation flights; cabin crew meals are ordered with the trip.
Customs at Arvidsjaur run through your handling agent, and EU rules limit meat and dairy from outside the Union. Ordering locally avoids holds, and any leftover food leaving the aircraft should be declared to the agent.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“An order of a seafood starter and warm vegetable sides for 11 people at ESNX had to be organised around different crew meal preferences. The sauces supplied by The Galley Girls were straightforward to check against the written menu before the cabin handover. The canapés were also listed clearly, which made it easier to pass instructions between crew members during preparation. I want an inflight catering company to understand crew briefing, and this order gave us a useful starting point.”
“We kept the passenger brief simple at AJR: herb chicken with a quinoa salad for 11 guests, organised with a short ground stop in mind. After a final adjustment to the breakfast portions, The Galley Girls gave us one revised order summary to work from. We checked the side dishes against the same summary, keeping the cabin team and the handling contact aligned. When comparing inflight catering companies, I would look closely at written menu details after this experience.”
“Keeping the galley organised at Arvidsjaur Airport meant planning mushroom risotto and a green salad for 6 guests with several individual meal preferences in mind. I gave The Galley Girls our storage brief and asked for the side dishes to arrive in clearly marked packs. The order made in-flight catering services feel manageable because the crew briefing had been considered beforehand. I could hand the breakfast portions to a colleague with a short explanation instead of unpacking the whole order.”
Think of it by dish: reindeer and char sit higher, bread, cheese and berries sit lower. The winter weather window here decides how many passengers fly, which in turn shapes the order. We price what you actually pack.
State and diplomatic flights bring extra steps, such as security screening of food. Tell us it is a delegation and we plan the sequence with your operator. Last-minute orders are handled.
Short answer: local food moves freely, imported fresh meat and dairy do not. Your galley stays clean if you let us supply from the region. Ask your handling agent about leftovers leaving the aircraft.
You can, but a delegation aircraft is easier with an order, because we pack for the galley you have and label by seat. Bringing your own food also means customs rules for animal products if you arrive from outside the EU.
No. Whatever the winter does to your departure, catering stays its own order, separate from the private jet charter price, and it is invoiced on its own after delivery to the aircraft.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
