Private jet catering at Cambridge City Airport (EGSC / CBG), Cambridge

Catering to your aircraft in Cambridge.

EGSC rewards simple food. Most aircraft here carry four to six passengers, so a tray per seat in the drawer is the norm. We build the menu around the aircraft type, label by seat, and hand over at the FBO in Cambridge.

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 Cambridge, Cambridgeshire for your inflight catering

Cambridge and East of England private jet menu work starts from what the region grows and what a small galley can hold. The inflight menu for CBG leans on Cambridgeshire and Norfolk produce: Norfolk crab and Cromer crab dressed cold, Suffolk ham, Fenland asparagus when it is in season in May and June, and Cambridge burnt cream in a small pot. Private jet food here is mostly built for light jets, so we choose dishes that hold on a tray and need no cooking on board.

These are local specialities, written as they travel in a galley, not as they are plated in a restaurant. Our private jet platters pair Norfolk crab with samphire, Colchester smoked salmon and a cheese board with Cambridgeshire cheeses. Gourmet inflight meals add a slow-cooked hot dish that only needs the oven. Private jet snacks include shortbread, nuts and fruit for the crew.

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

A short runway and a compact apron shape every trip into Cambridge City, EGSC, and they shape the food too. Private jet catering here is built for light jets and turboprops with small galleys, packed so each tray goes straight from the drawer to the seat. We cook and pack for cabin crew meals and passengers alike, as inflight catering that works with the galley you actually have. For aviation catering at CBG, business aviation catering for university and motorsport traffic, and executive jet catering on short hops, we adjust the format to the aircraft.

Business aviationOur core

Corporate and VIP jet catering at Cambridge City Airport (CBG)

Business jet catering at Cambridge City is typically a short brief: four or six passengers, a morning departure, a cold lunch or a compact hot dish. Corporate jet catering for university and company visits needs few trays and clear labels. VIP flight catering and charter flight catering at CBG follow the same logic, built around the galley. A private jet chef writes a bespoke menu from the passenger list, and luxury inflight catering at this airport means finish and detail, not volume.

State & royalDiscretion, protocol

Private jet catering for government and royal flights at Cambridge City Airport (CBG)

Government flight catering at Cambridge City is uncommon but handled with care. Head of state flight catering and state visit aircraft catering demand protocol clearance before any dish is cooked, and VIP aviation catering means a named team, traceable sourcing and discretion. We work with the protocol office and your handling agent at EGSC, and the menu is agreed before the slot.

Dietary requirements and aviation catering at Cambridge City Airport (EGSC)

Special meals at Cambridge City are a procedure, not a label: kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free, allergen free and kids meals each get their own box, board and handling. In East of England kitchens, nuts, shellfish and wheat hide in sauces and bakes, so we separate them from the start. Give us the list and the seats.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meals for pilots and cabin crew at Cambridge City Airport (CBG)

At EGSC, crew meals are a request, not a default, and they are billed as part of the order. We pack flight crew meals and pilot meals in labelled crew meal boxes, with cockpit meals built to eat on a short turnaround. Crew catering can include different meals for pilots when policy requires it. Cabin crew meals travel in their own box, apart from the guest trays.

Galley catering at Cambridge City is mostly light-aircraft work, so a high loader is rarely needed.

About the airportEGSC / CBG

About Cambridge City Airport (EGSC): aviation catering and general aviation

Cambridge City Airport, EGSC, is a general aviation field in the East of England, 47 feet above sea level. Airport catering here serves light aircraft and small business jets, with FBO services and ground handling services built for quick turnarounds. The terminal is compact, which keeps the handover direct.

Business aviation

Business aviation catering at Cambridge City is shaped by the short runway and the type of aircraft it takes. Inflight catering and in-flight catering here mean compact trays for light jets. Aviation catering for executive jet catering missions stays light, and diplomatic flight catering is rare but possible. Cabin crew meals are packed for the aircraft, and CBG works as a small business aviation hub for the region.

Customs & food import

UK rules on importing meat and dairy from outside the country apply at Cambridge City as at any United Kingdom airport. Food bought locally is simple to hand over, and food arriving on an international flight may need to be declared. If in doubt, we buy and pack in England.

★★★★★CHARTER

“Between cabin checks at EGSC, I coordinated a breakfast basket with individual preserves for 8 guests and explained our concerns about a changing departure schedule. Our brief for flight catering services was met with a sensible plan for catering handover. The Galley Girls prepared the starters for assembly in the galley, with the accompanying elements easy to locate. The snack boxes stayed together in one group, so another crew member could follow the same plating sequence.”

Lucas P. | Charter operator

Falcon 900LX

★★★★★ROYAL FLIGHT

“Before our guests boarded at CBG, we needed vegetarian wraps and colourful salads divided into 11 portions suitable for two separate meal services. I gave The Galley Girls our storage brief and asked for the sauces to arrive in sealed meal containers. I could hand the sandwiches to a colleague with a short explanation instead of unpacking the whole order. For airline catering, that attention to crew briefing made the order noticeably easier to manage.”

Boris C. | Royal family manager

Global 7500

★★★★★LARGE CABIN

“Choosing mini sandwiches and individual desserts for 7 people at Cambridge City Airport was straightforward; the challenge was making it work with a revised passenger count. The starters supplied by The Galley Girls were straightforward to check against the written menu before the cabin handover. We could distinguish the breakfast portions at a glance instead of lifting lids just to establish what belonged to each service. Our brief for crew meals was met with a sensible plan for catering handover.”

Ordering for EGSC, in shortAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost for a Cambridge flight with a special meal?+

Pricing for a CBG flight follows your guest list. If one passenger needs a halal or gluten-free tray, we pack it in a separate box and cost it on its own. Standard cold platters for the rest of the cabin cost less. The final figure is agreed with you before the slot.

What lead time suits a light jet's galley at Cambridge City?+

For lead time at CBG, tell us the aircraft and whether it has an oven. A turboprop with a drawer and no heating needs a cold menu; a larger jet can take a hot dish. We handle last-minute orders and work from the galley you have.

What about customs when the aircraft repositions empty into Cambridge?+

When an aircraft repositions to EGSC without passengers, customs concerns the crew's own supplies and any leftover stock. United Kingdom rules restrict certain animal products from outside the country. We pack from local produce, so the handover at the aircraft needs no declaration.

Can you bring food from outside when crew wait on the ground at Cambridge?+

Waiting on the ground at Cambridge can stretch crew duty time, so food you bring may not last. You can bring your own, and customs rules on animal products still apply. We pack crew meals that keep well and can be eaten cold or reheated.

Is catering part of a charter when the weather decides departures from Cambridge?+

Catering is not part of a private jet charter into or out of EGSC. East of England fog or crosswinds can delay departures, and the food order is changed with your slot. It is arranged and billed separately from the aircraft.
