Aviation catering — Port Said, Egypt
Airline catering, VIP flight catering and private jet catering at Port Said (HEPS / PSD)
PSD (IATA) · HEPS (ICAO)
A narrow-body reference code governs the single runway at Port Said, which sets the scale our teams plan against for every rotation through HEPS. Inflight catering and in-flight catering here move by hi-loader straight to galley height, uplift boarded on the wide-body-capable stand rather than staged at the foot of the aircraft.

Aviation catering lead times and loading window at PSD
Aviation catering from sealed cart to galley door at HEPS / PSD
The loading window at Port Said runs from the sealed cart at our kitchen to the galley door on the stand, timed rather than guessed. Ramp access is held on our own badges, so the catering uplift moves without waiting on a shared escort slot once the aircraft is on chocks. Airside movement across the apron is sequenced against the same reference code that sets the stand itself, narrow-body clearance and all.
Between our kitchen and the stand at Port Said sit screening, an escort through airside, and apron traffic that varies rotation to rotation; we plan the galley catering run against the worst of that, not the average of it. Each cart is sealed at the kitchen door, and the seal is checked again at the stand before the catering uplift goes up the hi-loader. Temperature is logged at both ends of that chain of custody, and the handover at the galley is signed, not assumed.
One seal, one signature, one coordinator, from our kitchen door to the galley.
Crew meals and pilot meals for HEPS departures
Airline food supplier crews cleared for Port Said
The flight kitchen behind HEPS holds hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line under one roof, run to HACCP procedure from intake to seal. Airport catering here is planned against a single narrow-body-rated stand, so tray sets and passenger meal boxes are batched to the aircraft actually on the ramp rather than to a generic wide-body cycle. Airport catering at Port Said keeps that cold chain unbroken from the larder to the cart, and from the cart to the hi-loader.
The team that handles government flight catering at Port Said is the same named crew on every rotation: security clearance on file, listed on the access list, and trained to the paperwork that a sealed uplift carries with it. Household dietary requirements are logged against a standing specification rather than rebuilt each time, and the same crew signs the handover at the stand. That continuity is what a protocol desk checks first when it books catering at HEPS.
Kosher inflight catering and dietary sets at Port Said airport
Royal flight catering standards per cabin at PSD
Menus at Port Said are written to the cabin and the mission, not to a fixed cycle: a VIP flight menu for a head-of-state movement reads differently from a charter flight menu on a group rotation, and both are built from the same kitchen. Local sourcing draws on Egypt's dairy, fish and orchard fruit where the route and the season allow it, folded into a specification rather than a fixed dish. Every set is produced against documented allergen, halal, kosher and medical requirements, labelled per passenger and per cabin before it is sealed. Inflight catering out of this kitchen is planned to the reference code on the ramp, three cabins or one, never assumed from a bigger station's numbers.
First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Port Said are plated to a written specification, with caviar and à-la-carte service available on request. Every course is filed against the standing order so VIP flight catering repeats identically on the return leg out of PSD.
Business cabins
Business cabins at HEPS take multi-choice hot service in galley-ready tray sets, sized to fit the galley on the aircraft actually working the stand. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately and labelled to the roster, not folded into the passenger count.
Protocol & dietary
Household, religious and medical requirements are documented per passenger at Port Said, halal and kosher sets included, alongside the full range of IATA special meal codes. Inflight catering for these sets is produced on a separate line at HEPS and sealed before it joins the main uplift.

Flight catering airside delivery at Port Said, Egypt
A single narrow-body reference code governs the runway and the stand at Port Said, which makes every rotation through HEPS a documentation exercise as much as a loading one: a delegation needs its protocol file matched to the manifest, and a repeat charter needs the same tray specification held from one rotation to the next. Airline catering in Port Said is built around that single stand rather than a bank of gates, so the loading plan is fixed before the aircraft is on chocks, not worked out on the ramp.
The uplift travels from our kitchen by sealed cart to the stand, then up the hi-loader to galley height, with our own crew on the apron for the handover rather than a shared ramp pool. In-flight catering in Port Said and aviation catering in Port Said both run off that same route and the same reference code, whatever the operator or the mission behind the flight.
One coordinator carries the rotation from kitchen to signature, sealed carts logged at both ends and a handover signed on the stand, and airport catering at Port Said is planned against that single commitment on every movement.

A dependable option for irregular operations. Updates were timely and the final delivery matched the confirmation we had from operations.”

The crew received exactly what was ordered, with clear labels and no last-minute chasing from operations. Very useful coverage for smaller or less familiar stations. The order was complete on arrival and easy for us to check before closing the doors.”

Business jet catering questions at Port Said airport
Diversion catering and ramp questions at Port Said airport
What operations gets asked every week about Port Said.
Ask operations directly →Is private jet catering delivered to the FBOs and the GA terminal at PSD?
Our coordinator routes every order to the FBOs on the field and the GA terminal from the same kitchen, so FBO catering runs on the identical cold chain and paperwork as an airline uplift.
Does HEPS produce halal, kosher and the IATA special meal codes?
Every tray produced against a special meal code, halal or kosher included, is documented per passenger and run through SPML labelling before it leaves the kitchen.
Where in Port Said is VIP, VVIP and government flight catering handled under protocol?
The protocol file logged against the manifest is what proves it: VIP flight catering and government flight catering at Port Said both move under the same documented chain of custody, security clearance included.
Whose deadline governs how late a specification can change at Port Said Airport?
For any rotation through Port Said Airport, our ops desk holds the lead time an operator is quoted and confirms how far in advance the cabin count and any special meal codes must be locked before the loading window opens.
When is an airline catering cost at PSD confirmed?
Once cabin count, specification and loading window are set, our desk returns a quotation rather than working from a published price list, since airline catering cost depends on all three.
Which method gets airline catering airside at HEPS?
The hi-loader is the method: sealed carts move from our kitchen by escorted route to the stand, then up to galley height, so airside delivery never sets a tray down at the foot of the aircraft.
