GYU (IATA) · ZLGY (ICAO)
AERO GOURMET runs inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering at Guyuan (ZLGY / GYU), Guyuan, China, for scheduled, charter, VIP, government and private jet flights sized to the narrow-body reference code this field holds. That code sets the stand and the uplift wide-body operators plan around elsewhere, and here it disciplines the same hi-loader boarding to galley height, kitchen to ramp, without a spare metre to lose.

Everything below is what we measure at this station — distances, windows, who signs what.
Airport catering order window at Guyuan (GYU)
Aircraft catering sealed from kitchen to galley at ZLGY
The catering uplift at Guyuan starts sealed at our kitchen and ends signed at the galley door, with ramp access held on our own clearance rather than a kerbside handoff. Every stage between those two points is logged against the narrow-body stand this field works, not guessed at from a generic turnaround. What the apron adds to that route is accounted for before the cart leaves the dock, not discovered on it.
Between our kitchen and the stand at Guyuan sit screening, an escort through the apron traffic, and the queue a single narrow-body stand can create at peak rotation. We plan the catering uplift against the worst of that sequence rather than the average of it, because a missed slot at GYU has no second stand to absorb it. Every cart is sealed at the kitchen door, logged again at galley catering handover, and the chain of custody closes only when a name is signed against it at the aircraft.
One seal at the kitchen, one signature at the galley door.
Airline catering companies' production standard at Guyuan, China
Pilot meals and cleared production crews for Guyuan airport
The flight kitchen that provisions Guyuan runs hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line under one roof, built to feed the narrow-body reference code this station holds rather than a wide-body volume it does not. Airport catering at this scale is planned around one stand, one rotation and one sealed run, which is what lets airport catering here stay exact instead of approximate. HACCP governs every stage of that run, from intake to the sealed cart that leaves for the apron.
The team behind government flight catering at Guyuan is the same named crew on every rotation, not a rota filled from whoever is on shift. Security clearance is held on file, access to the kitchen and the ramp is limited to that list, and each member is trained to the paperwork a sealed uplift carries rather than to the cooking alone. That continuity is what a protocol desk checks before it books the load.
Kosher inflight catering and dietary sets at ZLGY / GYU
VVIP catering to a written specification at Guyuan (GYU)
Guyuan's airline catering menu is written to the cabin, the mission and the season rather than to a fixed cycle, and produce drawn from the wider region sits alongside imported lines through the same cold larder. Dairy, orchard fruit and fish sourced locally in China move through the same inflight catering line as the specification requires, never as a marketing claim on the tray card. Each menu is filed against the aircraft type this stand takes, so a change of mission does not mean a rewrite from nothing. Allergen, halal, kosher and medical sets are documented per passenger and per cabin before the tray is sealed, not adjusted after boarding.
First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Guyuan are plated to a written specification rather than a standard tray, with VIP flight catering covering caviar and à-la-carte service on request. Each course is filed against the standing order, so a repeat rotation is served to the same standard without a fresh brief each time.
Business cabins
Business cabins at ZLGY take a multi-choice hot service in galley-ready tray sets, sized to the aircraft fitted to this narrow-body stand. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately to the roster, so cabin crew meals never draw on the passenger count at Guyuan.
Protocol & dietary
Protocol and dietary requirements at GYU are documented per passenger, covering halal and kosher sets alongside the full range of IATA special meal codes. Each of these lines is produced on a separate section of the kitchen and sealed there before it joins the rest of the inflight catering load.

Flight catering airside delivery at GYU
Guyuan's traffic sits within the reach of a single narrow-body reference code, which keeps the mix to scheduled, charter and occasional government movements rather than a wide-body peak wave. That profile makes catering here a documentation and repetition problem more than a capacity one: the same stand, the same sequence, run cleanly each time rather than scaled up under pressure.
The uplift moves from our kitchen to the stand under our own ramp access, loaded by hi-loader to the galley door rather than handed off at the foot of the aircraft. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering at Guyuan run off one coordinator's desk, so the route from kitchen to stand is fixed before the cart leaves rather than negotiated airside.
One coordinator owns the rotation, the carts are sealed at the kitchen and signed again at the aircraft, and airport catering in Guyuan is committed to that signed handover on every load, narrow-body reference code or not.
Commercial aviation catering for every mission at Guyuan airport
01
Government and state flight catering at ZLGY
A head of state aircraft using the narrow-body stand at Guyuan is boarded under the same protocol file as any other government flight catering movement here: security-cleared staff, the manifest documented per passenger, and the uplift sealed before it leaves the kitchen. Delegations and official movements route through that single file rather than a one each time.

Royal and VVIP flight catering at GYU
At Guyuan, the narrow-body reference code sets the ceiling for private airliners on royal flight catering work, covering BBJ and ACJ movements within the aircraft this stand actually takes. Household standards are held to a written specification kept on file between rotations, with halal and other household dietary requirements produced on request rather than assumed.

03
Charter and ACMI flight catering at Guyuan
Sequencing a charter load against the narrow-body reference code at Guyuan means the galley layout, not the passenger count, decides the loading order on this stand. Charter flight catering here covers ACMI and wet-lease operators, group movements and special missions, each boarded as a full multi-class uplift counted against the loading sheet before the doors close.

04
Airline and ad hoc catering at ZLGY
The narrow-body reference code held at Guyuan governs every ad hoc airline catering uplift run through this station, from a scheduled carrier treating it as an outstation to a diversion that lands unplanned. Outstation catering and technical stop catering both work off the same duty roster here, with AOG covered inside the same multi-leg rotation rather than a separate call-out.

05
Private jet and FBO catering at GYU
The narrow-body reference code at Guyuan is short, so private jet catering here is worked to the same GA-terminal ramp rather than a separate wide-body apron. Delivery reaches the FBOs on the field and the GA terminal directly, on the same cold chain and the same paperwork as any airline uplift at this stand.

Scheduled airline
“For a government operation through Guyuan (GYU/ZLGY), we required discreet royal flight catering. Special meals and crew items were clearly separated, and the aircraft-side handover was smooth. We were very satisfied with the level of coordination. Responses were quick whenever we had a question, which helped us keep the flight on schedule.”
★★★★★Private jet operator
Adriana — VIP Charter Manager
“We ordered VIP airliner catering for our aircraft at Guyuan (GYU/ZLGY) and the result was very good. Everything arrived neatly packed, easy to identify in the galley, and consistent with the presentation we requested. I would happily use them again on a VIP rotation. The final handover was simple and there was nothing for the crew to correct before departure.”
★★★★★Charter operator
Thomas — Operations Controller
“For a high-volume passenger flight at Guyuan (GYU/ZLGY), we needed reliable umrah flight catering. The team handled the volume well and kept the boxes clearly identified by flight and service. We would use the service again for a similar charter. That made the turnaround easier for both the flight crew and the team on the ground.”

What operations gets asked every week about Guyuan.
Ask operations directly →Which FBOs on the field does GYU private jet catering reach?
The loader and the cart route to every FBO on the field and the GA terminal directly, so FBO catering at Guyuan reaches all of them on the same cold chain and paperwork as an airline uplift.
Where does ZLGY record how far in advance an order must be placed?
The loading sheet filed against each rotation sets the lead time; how far in advance a first order should land depends on the cabin count, but a specification can still change closer to departure than a first booking can.
When are halal, kosher and SPML meals produced for flights through Guyuan?
Once a special meal code is logged against the passenger manifest, halal, kosher and other special meals are produced on a separate line and sealed there ahead of the rest of the load.
What protocol governs VIP flight catering and government flight catering at Guyuan Airport?
We hold a single written protocol file for VIP flight catering and government flight catering alike, with security-cleared staff and a sealed uplift signed off before it leaves the kitchen.
How is airline catering cost worked out for a rotation through GYU?
GYU quotations are built from the cabin count, the specification and the loading window rather than a fixed price list, so our desk comes back with a figure once those three are known.
Can airline catering be delivered airside at ZLGY, and how does it reach the aircraft?
The narrow-body reference code held at ZLGY sets a single stand for airside delivery, and the uplift is boarded there by hi-loader to galley height rather than handed off at the foot of the aircraft.
