Aviation catering — Vohemar, Madagascar
Vohemar (FMNV / VOH): airline catering, VIP flight catering and private jet catering
VOH (IATA) · FMNV (ICAO)
At Vohemar (FMNV), the 1291-metre runway sets the aircraft this station boards, and it shapes every wide-body-style uplift we plan around a narrow-body reference code. Inflight catering here runs by hi-loader to galley height, sealed at our kitchen and moved airside for in-flight catering that reaches the aircraft without a stop at the foot of the stairs.

Aviation catering from sealed cart to galley door at Vohemar, Madagascar
Ramp access governs every catering uplift at Vohemar, because the sealed cart moves across the apron on a route fixed before dispatch, not chosen on the day. Loading follows the galley door layout on the aircraft parked here, so the sequence is set at the kitchen and held all the way to the stand. Nothing on this apron is left to be worked out at the last minute once the hi-loader is already rolling.

Between our kitchen and the stand at Vohemar sit screening, an escort and apron traffic, and the galley catering plan is built against the worst of those three rather than the average. Chain of custody runs from the seal at dispatch to the signature at handover, with a temperature log opened the moment the cart leaves the kitchen and closed again at the galley door. A single named coordinator carries that catering uplift the whole way, so no stage of the convoy changes hands without a record attached to it.
The convoy is the risk we plan against, not the food on it.
Flight kitchen and crew meals for VOH

Pilot meals and cleared production crews for FMNV / VOH
Airport catering at Vohemar runs from a single facility that keeps hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line under one roof, built to the reach of the narrow-body reference code held on this field. HACCP governs every stage of that production, from intake to the sealed cart, so a wide-body-style rotation and a single ad hoc uplift are worked to the same standard. Airport catering at FMNV means the flight kitchen at VOH answers to one line, not several, whatever the mission on the stand.
The team behind government flight catering at this station is the same named crew on every rotation, carrying a security clearance on file and standing on the access list before the cart is loaded. They are trained to royal household service standards as well as to airline tray-set discipline, so the same hands move between a state movement and a scheduled uplift without a change in procedure. Chain of custody is signed by name at every handover, never by department.
VIP flight catering menus for FMNV departures
Commercial aviation catering written per cabin at Vohemar
Menus at this station are designed to the cabin and to the mission, moving from a VIP flight menu plated for a single household to a charter flight menu built for a full wide-body-style load, never the reverse. Where Madagascar's own produce is available, dairy, fish and orchard fruit are worked into the plan in general terms rather than fixed into a set dish. Inflight catering in Vohemar closes on documentation: allergen, halal and kosher sets are labelled per passenger and per cabin before they ever reach the galley. The menu cycle changes with the season; the standard behind it does not.

First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Vohemar are plated to a written specification held on file between rotations, with à-la-carte and caviar service available on request rather than fixed to a set cycle. VIP flight catering here is built around that specification, so a repeat household movement is served to the same standard every time it lands.

Business cabins
Business cabins at FMNV take a multi-choice hot service built to oven-ready formats sized to the aircraft galley, boxed as tray sets rather than plated individually. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals travel in their own sealed boxes, kept apart from the passenger load and matched to the roster rather than the cabin count.

Protocol & dietary
Protocol and dietary requirements are documented per passenger at this station, covering household, religious and medical needs against a written record rather than a verbal note. Halal and kosher sets, together with the full range of IATA special meal codes, are produced on a separate line and sealed before that inflight catering leaves the kitchen for the stand.

Compliance
HACCP control for flight catering at Vohemar airport
Aircraft catering delivered airside at Vohemar (VOH)
Vohemar handles scheduled, charter and ad hoc traffic against a single narrow-body reference code, which turns each stand movement into a documentation and sequencing exercise rather than a volume one. A repeat rotation is planned once and reused; a one-off diversion is worked from the same checklist under tighter time.
The uplift leaves our kitchen sealed and travels the apron by a fixed route to the stand, boarded by hi-loader to galley height rather than left at the foot of the aircraft. Airline catering in Vohemar and aviation catering at Vohemar both run off the same ops desk, so airport catering in Madagascar is coordinated from one point rather than several.
On every stand movement here, a single coordinator signs the load in and out, and inflight catering at VOH, in-flight catering at Vohemar and the cold chain behind them answer to that one signature.

“For a team flight from Vohemar (VOH/FMNV), we booked sports team flight meals with several dietary requests. They handled the nutrition requests well and kept everything organized for fast distribution onboard. A good partner for sports charter operations. That made the turnaround easier for both the flight crew and the team on the ground.”

Yann — Flight Operations Specialist
“We arranged evacuation flight catering at Vohemar (VOH/FMNV) for a non-routine passenger movement. They kept the menu simple, respected the special requirements, and delivered exactly when the aircraft was ready to receive it. A good experience under difficult timing conditions. The final handover was simple and there was nothing for the crew to correct before departure.”

Hannah — Airport Services Manager
“For a cargo sector from Vohemar (VOH/FMNV), we arranged cargo airline crew catering for the operating crew. Meals arrived on time and were packed practically for a working crew rather than over-presented. Good service for freighter crews and odd-hour schedules. The order was complete on arrival and easy for us to check before closing the doors.”

Vohemar Airport takes airside delivery by hi-loader, with the sealed cart raised straight to galley height rather than left at the foot of the aircraft.
Is there a fixed lead time for an order at VOH?
Our coordinator holds a standing lead time for a full specification and a shorter one for last minute airline catering, with any change to the tray count confirmed back before the cart is sealed.
When can private jet catering be delivered to the FBOs at FMNV?
Once a slot and a stand are confirmed on the field, FBO catering moves to the GA terminal on the same schedule as an airline uplift, with no separate lead time for a business jet.
Which protocol governs VIP flight catering and government flight catering in Vohemar?
The hi-loader and the sealed cart carry every VIP or state movement here, with government flight catering signed against a written protocol file rather than a verbal instruction.
Where are halal, kosher and special meal codes documented for Vohemar Airport?
A separate production line records every SPML order against the passenger manifest, with halal and kosher sets sealed and logged before they leave that line.
What does airline catering cost at VOH?
We price against cabin count, specification and the loading window rather than a published list, and the desk returns a quotation once those three are confirmed.
