Catering to your aircraft in Peterborough.
RAF Wittering handles military traffic first, which makes the handover the part to plan. We bring sealed, labelled trays for the aircraft in front of you, and the Peterborough menu is cooked around what your galley can hold.
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.
Peterborough and the Lincolnshire and Cambridgeshire fenland around RAF Wittering give a private jet menu a clear regional shape. The inflight menu can lean on Lincolnshire sausage, Stilton from the East Midlands, fenland asparagus in season, and Lincolnshire Poacher cheese.
Local specialities travel well when they are planned for the galley: a Stilton and pear board served chilled, Lincolnshire sausage rolls finished in the oven, and fenland vegetables as a side. For England in general, the private jet food list also covers roast beef, Yorkshire pudding in a foil tray, and a proper afternoon tea, with scones and clotted cream packed apart.
Private jet platters from Peterborough lean on British cheese, cold cuts, pickles and seasonal fruit. Gourmet inflight meals are cooked to order, chilled for service, and private jet snacks such as shortbread and oatcakes are packed in sealed boxes, so the crew only has to plate.
Tail, pax, diets, timing. One message — no portal, no quote form. Answered at any hour, by a flight attendant.
Leak-proof boxes, marked by guest and restriction, with reheating times written on the lid.
Two minutes out of the drawer. Whatever you ordered for the crew comes in the same delivery, and one clean invoice follows.
At EGXT, the apron belongs to the RAF first, and a civilian tail arrives by prior arrangement. We provide private jet catering for those movements: sealed, labelled, handed over via the FBO or your handling agent. Inflight catering and in-flight catering are matched to the galley of your type, aviation catering and business aviation catering stay on one invoice, executive jet catering menus are written per flight, and diplomatic flight catering and cabin crew meals are available on request.
A business jet into RAF Wittering usually means a small party and a firm schedule. Our business jet catering and corporate jet catering are planned for one oven and a drawer, VIP flight catering is plated per seat, charter flight catering is built from your slot, and luxury inflight catering is written by a private jet chef as a bespoke menu for Peterborough guests.
Government flight catering at a station like RAF Wittering is run through protocol, not the kitchen. Head of state flight catering and VIP aviation catering are cleared in advance, state visit aircraft catering is handed over through your handling agent, and the same named team handles every movement.
Special meals at RAF Wittering are handled as a procedure, not a promise: kosher trays arrive sealed and unopened, halal dishes are cooked on separate equipment, and vegan, gluten free and allergen free plates are boxed apart with their own label. English cooking hides gluten and dairy in gravy, pastry and custard, so those are named on the card for each seat. Kids meals come as smaller portions, packed apart from the adult trays.
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 a crew on the ground at Peterborough, crew meals are a line you ask for and we invoice. Flight crew meals are simple and filling, pilot meals are sealed and easy to eat in the cockpit, crew catering sits apart from the guest trays, and cockpit meals come in crew meal boxes with the name of the role on the lid. Different meals for pilots are available if your operator asks, and cabin crew meals are packed for the back of the aircraft.
RAF Wittering has a controlled apron, so FBO catering depends on who holds the airside pass. We hand over at the general aviation terminal or with the escort, catering delivery to the FBO is agreed in advance, ground handling catering is packed to match the aircraft, and handling agent catering is closed by phone or email.
At EGXT the tail you fly decides whether trays go up by hand or on a high loader. A light jet is loaded by hand through the door, while a larger aircraft may need a high loader on the apron, arranged through your handling agent. Galley catering is packed to the galley of your type, and airside catering delivery follows the apron access rules of a military station. Tell us the tail and we plan aircraft provisioning around what your galley holds.
Mention it when you orderCertified, inspected, with cold-chain records filed against your trip.
Whichever terminal you park at, handover is at the aircraft, on your slot.
Allergen sheet per guest, halal and kosher on request, sealed and labelled.
Itemised and trip-report ready, sent after the leg.
EGXT is a military airfield in England, not a public commercial field. Airport catering here is arranged around the station rules, general aviation arrivals are by prior agreement, and FBO services and ground handling services are coordinated by your handling agent.
Business aviation hub is not what RAF Wittering is, which is why each movement needs care. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering follow the aircraft type, business aviation catering stays on one invoice, executive jet catering is written per flight, diplomatic flight catering suits official visits, and cabin crew meals are listed on request.
Flights arriving from outside the United Kingdom are subject to food-import rules, and the origin of the aircraft decides what may stay on board. A domestic movement into England is simpler, and British produce raises no import question. Declarations stay with the operator, and our trays are labelled by content to help.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“One detail shaped our order at EGXT: an evening cabin service, alongside a request for a cold lunch with cheese and fruit for 5 passengers. For our team, the strongest part of their aviation catering services was how they handled galley preparation. The Galley Girls gave us an update on the salads before the handover, which helped us organise the cabin checks. The sauces went straight to the right colleague instead of circulating between several people during the turnaround.”
“Timing and organisation mattered at RAF Wittering, where our order of prawn salad and small fruit plates for 9 people involved different crew meal preferences. The Galley Girls understood why we wanted the main courses readily accessible instead of spread across several different boxes. That left time to check the salads properly before the passengers were ready for the next part of the service. I want an aviation catering company to understand catering handover, and this order gave us a useful starting point.”
“My order at RAF Wittering covered a cheese board and savoury canapés for 4 guests, with a practical service plan needed because of a family lunch request. The Galley Girls used a readable packing list for the desserts, which helped when two colleagues checked the order together. I found the sauces without searching through every box, a small detail that mattered during the final cabin checks. When comparing aviation catering companies, I would look closely at cabin service sequence after this experience.”
Cost follows what you choose: Stilton and roast beef platters are priced differently from a plated three-course service, and a diplomatic party usually asks for the second. We quote it per flight, billed like the rest of the order.
Customs shape the lead time more than the kitchen does. A domestic movement into Peterborough can be ordered late, while an international arrival asks us to keep animal products compliant with United Kingdom rules.
Customs declarations for catering stay with the operator, and our trays are labelled by content to make that simple. Airside access to RAF Wittering runs through the handling agent, so give us their contact with your tail.
You can bring your own food, but customs rules for the United Kingdom apply to what is carried across the border. For a special meal such as kosher, halal, allergen free or a child's plate, ordering through us means it arrives sealed and labelled.
No, the charter does not cover catering. The aircraft type decides the order, because a turboprop galley cannot hold what a long-range jet can, so we pack to your layout.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
