Private jet catering at Dundee Airport (EGPN / DND), Dundee

Catering to your aircraft in Dundee.

Dundee's runway runs along the Tay, and most of the jets that land here are bound for golf or a quiet business meeting. We pack Scottish produce for the galley you actually have, and hand it over plane-side through your FBO.

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 Dundee for your inflight catering

Scotland gives a private jet menu at Dundee a short list of products that genuinely travel well. Local specialities start with Arbroath smokies, hot-smoked haddock that is flaked into a warm tart or served cold on oatcakes, and Tay salmon, which holds up as a chilled platter. Private jet platters from the region often pair Angus beef with Orkney cheddar and Scottish oatcakes, while the inflight menu for the summer months leans on Angus raspberries and strawberries, which are at their best from June to August. Private jet food for golf parties headed to St Andrews is usually simple: shortbread, Dundee cake, cold meats and a proper cheese board. Gourmet inflight meals can be built around venison or hot-smoked salmon with a sauce packed apart, and private jet snacks tend to be tablet, Tunnock's-style caramel wafers and Walkers shortbread. Each one is plated for the galley, not the restaurant, so the crew can finish it in a drawer-and-oven routine. Dundee and its Scottish surroundings supply the produce; we adapt it to what an aircraft can serve.

What travels from Dundee and the wider Scotland pantry is better suited to the cabin than most regions. The private jet menu can open with Cullen skink in a flask, move to Angus sirloin with sauce apart, and end on cranachan or a Dundee cake slice. Local specialities such as Arbroath smokies, venison and Tay salmon give the inflight menu its identity, and private jet food built from them needs very little handling on board. Private jet platters of smoked fish, oatcakes and cheeses suit short sectors, and private jet snacks like shortbread or tablet stay in the seat pocket. Gourmet inflight meals use berries and cream in summer and root vegetables and game in winter, so the Dundee menu shifts with the calendar. Everything is boxed and labelled for the crew.

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

Dundee Airport has a single runway lying along the Tay, and the business jets that use it tend to arrive on short golf and St Andrews trips. Private jet catering here is built around the galley you actually have: Angus beef, Tay salmon and Arbroath smokies packed for a quick turnaround. Inflight catering for EGPN covers cold platters and oven dishes alike, in-flight catering rules out anything that needs a hob, and aviation catering at DND stays plane-side. Business aviation catering suits corporate parties heading north, executive jet catering covers owners flying in for the Open, diplomatic flight catering is handled through protocol, and cabin crew meals can be added on request.

Business aviationOur core

Business aviation catering at Dundee Airport (DND)

Business jet catering at Dundee is usually a small brief: four to eight passengers, a morning arrival, a return the same evening. Corporate jet catering for these trips leans on cold platters and one good hot dish. VIP flight catering covers owner and guest trips to St Andrews, and charter flight catering runs on the same menu with a different headcount. Luxury inflight catering here means Scottish smoked fish, Angus beef and berries in season, and a private jet chef will write a bespoke menu around the galley's one oven.

State & royalDiscretion, protocol

Government flight catering and aviation catering at Dundee Airport (EGPN)

When a state visit or ministerial trip lands at EGPN, the menu is cleared by protocol first. Government flight catering keeps to a short, safe list, head of state flight catering uses a sealed, traceable chain, VIP aviation catering is handled by a small named team, and state visit aircraft catering is handed over discreetly at the aircraft.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meals on request for flights from Dundee (DND)

For the crew at EGPN, crew meals ride in the same delivery as the passenger food but in their own boxes. Flight crew meals and pilot meals are on request and invoiced separately, crew catering is labelled by role, cockpit meals are packed for a lap tray, crew meal boxes close flat, and different meals for pilots are packed so the two seats never share a dish. Cabin crew meals for the cabin staff travel in the same set of boxes and are ordered and invoiced like the rest.

Airport catering delivered to the FBO at Dundee Airport (EGPN)

On the Dundee apron, FBO catering is handed over at the aircraft or at the general aviation terminal, as your agent prefers. Catering delivery to the FBO runs on the slot, ground handling catering is cleared with the airside team, and handling agent catering means one confirmed name on the gate list.

Aircraft provisioning for large cabins: airport catering at Dundee Airport

Dundee mostly sees aircraft whose doors sit low enough for hand loading, so galley catering goes up the steps in boxes. Airside catering delivery is by van at the apron, and aircraft provisioning for anything bigger is agreed with the agent beforehand.

About the airportEGPN / DND

Aviation catering and business aviation at Dundee Airport (DND)

EGPN is a compact airport at the edge of Dundee, used by turboprops, light jets and the odd corporate aircraft. Airport catering is a simple operation, general aviation traffic dominates, FBO services are modest, ground handling services work to the slot, and as a business aviation hub it serves the Tay corridor.

Business aviation

Business aviation arrives at Dundee in bursts: Open weeks at St Andrews, board meetings in Perth, family trips to the glens. Inflight catering and in-flight catering for these arrivals is boxed for the galley. Aviation catering and business aviation catering fit light jets, executive jet catering suits owner-flown arrivals, diplomatic flight catering is cleared by protocol, and cabin crew meals can ride in the same box set.

Customs & food import

UK customs rules limit meat and dairy products arriving on aircraft from outside the country, so we cook locally in Scotland and never carry anything across a border. International arrivals at Dundee clear through the handling agent, and leftover food from abroad is usually disposed of under UK rules.

★★★★★CREW MEALS

“Menu approval at DND covered vegetarian wraps and colourful salads for 10 guests, leaving us to organise the service around a family lunch request. The Galley Girls prepared the salads for assembly in the galley, with the accompanying elements easy to locate. We could finish the breakfast portions as each guest was ready, rather than laying everything out at once. The crew briefing stood out more than any sales pitch about airport catering.”

★★★★★BUSINESS JET

“My order at Dundee Airport covered chicken skewers with a couscous salad for 2 guests, with a practical service plan needed because of two separate meal services. We described our serving sequence to The Galley Girls and asked for the sandwiches to be packed accordingly. I would discuss inflight catering with them again, especially when final order confirmation needs careful coordination. That left time to check the breakfast portions properly before the passengers were ready for the next part of the service.”

★★★★★GOVERNMENT

“Several practical details needed attention at EGPN, with roasted chicken and seasonal vegetables requested for 11 guests and a small galley worktop to accommodate. Our brief for in-flight catering was met with a sensible plan for final order confirmation. After a final adjustment to the crew provisions, The Galley Girls gave us one revised order summary to work from. There was no need to reconstruct the side dishes quantities from several messages during the final departure checks.”

Dundee: the questionsAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost at Dundee given UK food-import rules?+

Because UK customs rules restrict certain animal products arriving on aircraft from abroad, we source Scottish ingredients locally, which keeps the cost of private jet catering at EGPN understandable. A simple smokie platter costs far less than a venison tasting menu.

What is the lead time for private jet catering at Dundee Airport?+

Dundee's compact airside means lead time depends on handling-agent access rather than on the kitchen. Tell us the slot and your agent will clear the delivery; late requests are handled as part of the normal service.

What do customs rules mean for a kosher or allergen meal at Dundee?+

Customs controls apply to food entering the UK, not to food produced here. A halal, kosher or nut-free meal for Dundee is built from UK-sourced ingredients and handed over sealed.

Can you bring food onto a private jet at Dundee?+

It is allowed, but the galley size is the limit. At EGPN most aircraft are light or midsize, so a tidy, sealed order from us usually fits where an assorted bag from outside does not.

Is catering part of a charter into Dundee on a short repositioning flight?+

Catering is separate from the charter contract, so a repositioning leg into Dundee with nobody aboard still means ordering crew meals yourself if the crew wants them.
