Aviation catering — Nashik, India
VIP & private jet catering with airline catering at Nashik (VAOZ / ISK)
ISK (IATA) · VAOZ (ICAO)
With a 3000 m runway holding a wide-body reference code, Nashik takes hi-loader boarding straight to galley height rather than kerbside handover. AERO GOURMET runs inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering from that ramp, sealing every uplift before it clears the apron for a scheduled, charter, VIP or government departure.

Flight catering sealed and logged to the stand at Nashik
Per rotation, the catering uplift at Nashik moves from a sealed cart to the galley door under one continuous watch. Ramp access is held on our own clearance rather than handed off at the apron edge, so the convoy that crosses it answers to a single loading crew from kitchen to stand. What the timeline below records is that crossing, not an estimate of it.

Between our kitchen and the stand at Nashik sit screening, an escort and apron traffic, and the catering uplift is planned against the worst of those three rather than the average. Chain of custody runs on one sealed cart and one named escort, so the galley catering handed up at the door is the same load that left the kitchen sealed. Temperatures are logged at sealing and again at handover, with a signature closing each leg of the load.
One seal at the kitchen, one signature at the galley door, nothing in between.
Airline catering companies' production standard at Nashik airport

Crew meals and passenger sets from one kitchen at ISK
The flight kitchen behind Nashik runs hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line under one roof, built to HACCP standard from intake to seal. Airport catering at VAOZ moves off that single floor rather than several outstations, which keeps the cold chain unbroken between the last check and the cart. Airport catering in Nashik is planned from this kitchen for every cabin the wide-body reference code allows.
The team that handles government flight catering at Nashik is the same named crew on every rotation: security clearance on file, listed on the access list, and trained to household service standards rather than rotated in ad hoc. Sealed uplift here travels with paperwork that names who packed it and who escorted it, so a protocol officer can trace the load without asking. No dish or ingredient is named on that record, only the clearance and the seal.
VIP flight catering menus for Nashik (ISK) departures
VVIP catering to a written specification at VAOZ
Menus at Nashik are written to the cabin and the mission rather than issued from one fixed list, and a VIP flight menu differs from a charter flight menu by protocol as much as by course. Where the season allows, dairy, orchard fruit and regional produce sit alongside imported lines rather than replacing them. Inflight catering in India draws on both without naming a single supplier or a single dish on the record that travels with the tray. Allergen, halal, kosher and medical sets are documented per passenger and per cabin, so a change on one seat never touches the others.

First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Nashik are plated to a written specification, with à-la-carte and caviar service available on request rather than fixed to one menu card. VIP flight catering here is filed against the standing order, so a repeat rotation is served to the same record every time.

Business cabins
Business cabins at ISK run multi-choice hot service in galley-ready tray sets sized to the aircraft fitted on that rotation. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately to the roster, so cabin crew meals never draw from the passenger count.

Protocol & dietary
Halal and kosher sets, the full range of IATA special meal codes and household or medical requirements are documented per passenger at VAOZ rather than left to a verbal note. Inflight catering on the protocol line is produced separately and sealed before it joins the main uplift.

Aviation catering delivered to the stand at VAOZ / ISK
With one runway of 3000 m and a wide-body reference code, Nashik takes scheduled, charter and government traffic on a single ramp rather than splitting it across terminals. That mix turns a delegation into a documentation problem before it is a volume one, and a repeat rotation into a repetition problem the kitchen has to hold steady week on week.
Airline catering at Nashik moves from our kitchen to the stand by hi-loader, boarded to galley height rather than left at the foot of the aircraft. In-flight catering at ISK and aviation catering at VAOZ run off that same route, with our own crew on the ramp for every leg of the convoy.
What we commit to on this station is one coordinator, sealed carts and a signed handover, so inflight catering in Nashik carries one name against the load from kitchen to seat regardless of which cabin or mission it serves.

“We needed an airline ops catering supplier at Nashik (ISK/VAOZ) and the support was excellent. They understood airline operations and kept communication short, clear, and useful. A good partner to have when the usual supplier is not available. The order was complete on arrival and easy for us to check before closing the doors.”

Natalia — Executive Aviation Coordinator
“For our flight from Nashik (ISK/VAOZ), the cabin order included multiple special meals. The order arrived complete and the special requests were handled with the same presentation as the regular meals. That attention to detail makes a big difference onboard. The final handover was simple and there was nothing for the crew to correct before departure.”

Pilot meals and loading questions at Nashik (ISK)
What operations gets asked every week about Nashik.
Ask operations directly →What does airline catering cost at Nashik?
We price each quotation on cabin count, specification and the loading window rather than a fixed list, and the desk returns a figure once those three are known.
Where are halal, kosher and the special meal codes produced at Nashik Airport?
The documented record travels with the tray: halal, kosher, vegan and the full set of IATA SPML codes are logged per passenger and produced on a separate line before sealing.
When can ISK deliver private jet catering to the FBOs and the GA terminal?
Once a slot and a cabin count are confirmed, FBO catering at ISK is boarded on the same cold chain as an airline uplift, whichever FBO on the field the movement uses.
How does VAOZ deliver airline catering airside?
VAOZ boards by hi-loader from a sealed cart straight to galley height, so airside delivery never passes through a kerbside handover.
Is there a minimum lead time for an order at Nashik?
Our coordinator confirms a standing lead time at booking and will still take a specification change close to departure if the loading window allows it; ask how far in advance your rotation needs to be filed.
Which flights get VIP, VVIP and government protocol at Nashik Airport?
The hi-loader and the sealed cart carry every cabin through the same route, so VIP flight catering, government flight catering and royal movements are boarded under one documented protocol rather than a separate process.
