Aviation catering — Phnom Penh, Cambodia
Phnom Penh (VDTI / KTI): airline catering, VIP flight catering and private jet catering
KTI (IATA) · VDTI (ICAO)
At Phnom Penh (VDTI), the 4000 m runway clears wide-body movements that carry three cabins to board on one rotation, so aircraft catering runs to a fixed sequence rather than an improvised one. AERO GOURMET provides inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering here, boarding by hi-loader to galley height off one ops desk, from a kitchen positioned for wide-body uplift.

Airport catering order window at Phnom Penh (KTI)
Flight catering sealed and logged to the stand at VDTI
Catering at KTI moves on a measured run rather than a guessed one, sealed at the kitchen and tracked to the galley door on the single wide-body stand this station holds. Ramp access is the variable we plan against, since apron traffic and escort timing set the pace of the last stretch more than any fixed clock does. Every catering uplift carries its own record of that run, checked against the loading sheet before the door is closed.
Between our kitchen and the wide-body stand at VDTI sit screening, an escort requirement and apron movements that vary rotation to rotation, and the convoy is the part of the run we plan hardest against, not the food itself. A catering uplift is timed to clear each of those points with margin held in hand, so a delay on the ramp is absorbed before it reaches the galley door. Galley catering is sealed at production, temperature-logged at that seal and logged again at handover, and the crew taking delivery signs against the same sheet that opened the load, closing the chain of custody from kitchen to aircraft.
One coordinator carries the seal from our kitchen to the signature at the galley door.
Crew meals and pilot meals for Phnom Penh departures
Cleared crews behind government flight catering at Phnom Penh airport
The flight kitchen behind Phnom Penh runs hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol cell under one roof, built to feed a wide-body rotation rather than a single narrow-body turn. Airport catering at Phnom Penh is organised around that range so a full three-cabin uplift and a smaller ad hoc order draw on the same lines without one crowding out the other. HACCP governs every stage of that production, and the cold chain that starts at the larder is held intact through to the sealed cart, which is what airport catering at KTI is actually judged on.
The team behind government flight catering at this station is the same named crew on every rotation, not a rotating pool drawn from wherever is available that day. Each member carries security clearance on file and sits on the access list before a delegation is confirmed, trained to royal household standards and to the paperwork that has to travel sealed with the uplift. That continuity is what lets a repeat rotation move faster each time, because the chain of custody and the people executing it are already known to each other.
Halal airline meals and special meals at VDTI / KTI
Royal flight catering standards per cabin at Phnom Penh (KTI)
Menus at this station are written to the cabin and the mission rather than to a single fixed list, built around Cambodian dairy, river fish, orchard fruit and rice-growing produce worked into a wide-body specification. A VIP flight menu and a charter flight menu draw on the same kitchen but follow separate service standards, one plated to a written brief, the other staged for a full-cabin uplift. Inflight catering in Phnom Penh is planned in this way, season by season, so a rotation booked months out and one confirmed at short notice both leave the kitchen to the same production line. Every set closes on the same documentation: allergen, halal, kosher and medical requirements recorded per passenger and per cabin before the cart is sealed.
First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Phnom Penh are plated to a written specification rather than a standard tray, with caviar and à-la-carte service available on request against the standing order filed for the rotation. VIP flight catering here follows that document from kitchen to cabin, so a repeat movement is served the same way each time it lands.
Business cabins
Business cabins at KTI run on multi-choice hot service built to the galley fitted to the aircraft, boxed in oven-ready formats sized to that fit rather than a generic tray. Crew meals in Cambodia are produced alongside the passenger load, with cabin crew meals and pilot meals boxed separately and matched to the duty roster before doors close.
Protocol & dietary
Protocol and dietary requirements at VDTI are documented per passenger before production starts, covering household, religious and medical needs alongside halal and kosher sets and the full range of IATA special meal codes. Inflight catering at Phnom Penh keeps that production on a separate line, sealed before it leaves the kitchen so a mixed cabin boards with every requirement accounted for.

Flight catering airside delivery at KTI
Phnom Penh works scheduled, charter, VIP and government traffic across a single wide-body stand, which turns every arriving delegation into a documentation task worked ahead of the aircraft rather than a queue formed on the ramp. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering here run off one ops desk so a repeat rotation and a one-off charter draw on the same production line without either displacing the other.
The uplift travels a fixed route from our kitchen to the stand, sealed before departure and boarded by hi-loader to galley height, with airside delivery timed against the ramp movements recorded for that stand. Airport catering at VDTI is planned around that single point of contact rather than around multiple gates, which keeps the loading sequence short and the handover countable.
What we commit to at this station is one coordinator per rotation, sealed carts logged at both ends, and a signed handover that closes the chain of custody the moment the aircraft is boarded.
Scheduled, charter and VVIP catering at Phnom Penh, Cambodia
01
Government and state flight catering at Phnom Penh
One wide-body stand at VDTI, which means a delegation movement and a scheduled rotation cannot be worked side by side and the protocol file has to be closed before the aircraft is on the ground. Government flight catering here covers state visits and official delegations with that file documented per passenger, security-cleared staff on the access list, and the uplift sealed before it leaves the kitchen, a head of state movement handled on the same single-stand sequence as any other.

02
Royal and VVIP flight catering at VDTI
Our kitchen holds a wide-body specification on file between movements, which is what lets a household standard repeat exactly on a rotation that returns to this stand months apart. Royal flight catering at Phnom Penh covers private airliners, BBJ, ACJ and wide-body VIP configurations alike, with royal household dietary requirements and halal VIP sets produced against that same written brief rather than reworked each time.

03
Charter and ACMI flight catering at KTI
The wide-body reference code held at this station clears ACMI and wet-lease aircraft onto the same stand used for scheduled rotations, so a group charter is worked to the identical loading sheet rather than a lighter one. Charter flight catering at Phnom Penh, or a multi-leg tour operator or repatriation movement routed through Cambodia, still delivers a full three-cabin uplift staged in the order the galleys are laid out, charter flight catering in Cambodia held to that one standard regardless of the operator.

04
Airline and ad hoc catering at Phnom Penh
The single wide-body stand at KTI forces every carrier working this station as an outstation onto one loading sequence, which is what turns ad hoc airline catering here into a scheduling exercise rather than a volume one. Outstation catering, diversion catering and technical stop catering all run off that same sequence, AOG covered on the same duty roster, across a multi-leg rotation without a second stand to fall back on.
Commercial airlines →
05
Private jet and FBO catering at VDTI
A business airliner using the GA terminal at this station still boards from the same wide-body-cleared stand, which is what keeps a lighter movement on the identical cold chain as a scheduled rotation. Private jet catering at VDTI reaches the FBOs on the field through that stand, business aviation catering and business jet catering delivered on the same paperwork as an airline uplift, FBO catering never treated as a separate standard.

Business jet catering questions at VDTI / KTI
Diversion catering and ramp questions at VDTI / KTI
What operations gets asked every week about Phnom Penh.
Ask operations directly →Is there a lead time for airline catering orders at Phnom Penh?
The coordinator assigned to your rotation confirms how far in advance an order needs to be placed once the cabin count and mission are known, and last minute airline catering is worked where the loading window still allows it.
What does airline catering cost at KTI?
We do not publish a price list; a quotation is built from the cabin count, the specification and the loading window requested, and the desk returns one once those details are confirmed.
When can private jet catering be delivered to the FBOs at VDTI?
Once a movement is confirmed, private jet catering reaches the FBOs on the field and the GA terminal on the same cold chain and paperwork as an airline uplift, with FBO catering scheduled against the same loading sequence.
Where are halal, kosher and special meal codes documented for Phnom Penh?
The passenger manifest carries every recorded requirement before production starts, with halal, kosher and the full set of SPML codes produced on a separate line and logged against that document.
How is airline catering delivered airside at Phnom Penh?
Phnom Penh's single stand takes the uplift by hi-loader straight to galley height, with airside delivery timed to ramp movements rather than left at the foot of the aircraft.
