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

Local specialities from Karlstad for your inflight catering

Karlstad is the main gateway to Värmland, and the private jet menu here leans on lake and forest. A private jet menu for ESOK can open with Vänern whitefish, vendace roe on crispbread and smoked char, all of which travel cold and plate well. The inflight menu changes with the season: lingonberries and chanterelles in late summer, root vegetables and game in winter. Private jet food from this region is simple by design, and local specialities such as västerbottensost pie or potato dumplings (palt) are packed so they finish in your oven. Private jet platters of cured fish, rye and cheese suit the short Nordic sectors out of Värmland.

For Värmland as a region, the private jet menu at Karlstad is about restraint. An inflight menu might pair Vänern pike-perch with dill potatoes, or a game terrine with lingonberry on dark rye. Private jet food from here carries a Swedish plainness that guests tend to like at altitude. Local specialities include cloudberry desserts, smoked reindeer and filmjölk-based sauces; gourmet inflight meals built from them are plated cold or finished in the galley oven. Private jet snacks run to knäckebröd, cheese and berry compotes, boxed by seat.

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

Värmland in midsummer means long light and crayfish season talk; in winter it means de-icing and a full tray count. Private jet catering at Karlstad (ESOK / KSD) follows both. Our former VIP flight attendants write the order the way you would plate it: inflight catering and in-flight catering split by course, aviation catering marked by seat, business aviation catering for tight turnarounds, executive jet catering for the owner's table, diplomatic flight catering for protocol movements, and cabin crew meals boxed separately.

Business aviationOur core

Private jet catering in Karlstad for business and VIP flights (KSD)

A typical Karlstad brief is a corporate shuttle between Nordic offices or a charter flight catering order for a group visiting Värmland. Business jet catering and corporate jet catering here are written by seat, VIP flight catering follows the owner's preferences, and luxury inflight catering uses local fish and game. A private jet chef can build a bespoke menu around your galley, and a charter flight catering order for a small group is planned the same way.

Special meals

Allergen free special meals and aviation catering at Karlstad Airport (ESOK)

Special meals at Karlstad are handled as a procedure, not a label. Kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free and allergen free plates are cooked and sealed apart, because a Värmland kitchen leans on rye, dairy and fish, and that is where traces hide. Kids meals are planned as their own tray. Tell us the restrictions by seat and we build the card around them.

FBO delivery and FBO catering at Karlstad Airport (KSD)

Aircraft provisioning for large cabins: airport catering at Karlstad Airport

Aircraft type decides the loading at ESOK: a light jet takes a hand-carried trolley to the door, while a larger cabin may call for a high loader for galley catering at the forward service door. Airside catering delivery is coordinated through your handling agent, and aircraft provisioning for the larger cabins is planned around the aircraft's galley layout and door height.

About the airportESOK / KSD

About Karlstad Airport (ESOK): aviation catering and general aviation

Karlstad Airport sits on a plateau at 352 ft above Lake Vänern and serves Värmland. It handles scheduled flights and a steady flow of general aviation, with a terminal and apron suited to business jets in all seasons. FBO services and ground handling services are what a visiting crew leans on here, and airport catering is cooked for the galley and handed over at the aircraft.

Business aviation

Karlstad works as a quiet business aviation hub for the forest and manufacturing industries of Värmland. Inflight catering and in-flight catering here follow the Nordic seasons, while aviation catering and business aviation catering are written around seat plans. Executive jet catering suits owner trips, diplomatic flight catering follows protocol, and cabin crew meals and crew meals are boxed apart. The FBO services and ground handling services on the field shape how a tray reaches the door.

Customs & food import

Swedish customs follows EU rules at Karlstad. Member-state food moves easily, while non-EU animal products are limited and waste is handled under strict rules. Your handling agent, through its ground handling services, tells you what the FBO services can accept on the apron, and we plan the order around your aircraft's origin.

★★★★★LIGHT JET

“Choosing avocado toast components and breakfast fruit for 2 people at ESOK was straightforward; the challenge was making it work with a late menu amendment. This experience of airport catering gave us a useful reference for managing galley preparation on another departure. The side dishes from The Galley Girls were organised around the cabin plan, with the later service items kept apart. Our colleague could take over the fruit plates without asking where every component had been placed during preparation.”

★★★★★ROYAL FLIGHT

“Between cabin checks at KSD, I coordinated chicken skewers with a couscous salad for 3 guests and explained our concerns about an evening cabin service. We changed the quantities of side dishes, and The Galley Girls reflected the request in the final packing list. The note about the starters was easy to spot, and we could brief the rest of the team quickly. For inflight catering, that attention to packing arrangement made the order noticeably easier to manage.”

★★★★★CHARTER

“One detail shaped our order at Karlstad Airport: an evening cabin service, alongside a request for grilled salmon with a lemon dressing for 7 passengers. The Galley Girls labelled the salads in line with our brief, so the cabin team could identify the relevant portions quickly. The canapés were also listed clearly, which made it easier to pass instructions between crew members during preparation. Our brief for in-flight catering was met with a sensible plan for written menu details.”

Questions crews ask about KarlstadAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost for a Karlstad departure?+

The answer changes with sourcing. Local Värmland produce keeps things simpler at Swedish customs; imported items from outside the EU need to clear first. Your private jet catering cost is set per menu once we know the seats.

What is the lead time for catering on a long leg out of Karlstad?+

The question on a two-service leg is what holds. Fish and cold plates hold; fried items do not. Lead time is then a conversation about the menu, and last-minute orders are handled.

What do Swedish customs require for catering at ESOK?+

At ESOK, customs rules follow the EU: member-state produce is straightforward, and anything from outside is checked. We source locally where we can so the order stays simple.

Can you bring food on board at Karlstad, or must it come from you?+

You can carry your own food, though on a two-service sector it competes for galley space. We fit our trays around it. Non-EU meat and dairy need clearing with Swedish customs.

Is catering part of a charter into Karlstad?+

No. A charter into Värmland covers the aircraft; catering is a separate order with its own invoice. Swedish customs rules for food apply either way, and we plan around them.
