Pasni (OPPI / PSI): airline catering, VIP flight catering and private jet catering
PSI (IATA) · OPPI (ICAO)
At OPPI, a 2743 m runway holds a wide-body reference code, which lets us plan inflight catering for aircraft that need the full length to depart with a full load. From that capacity we run in-flight catering to galley height by hi-loader, moving uplift straight from our kitchen onto the aircraft rather than staging it at the foot of the steps.

Aviation catering from sealed cart to galley door at Pasni
Ramp access at Pasni sets the pace of every catering uplift: our crews cross the apron on cleared badges, not on a general escort queue, so the window from sealed cart to galley door is a fixed sequence rather than a guess. That sequence is what we quote against, station by station, and it is what a wide-body reference code like PSI's is built to support at scale. Nothing about it depends on the flight it is loaded for.
Between our kitchen and the stand at Pasni sit screening, an escort along the apron, and the ordinary traffic of a working ramp; we plan every catering uplift against the slowest of those, not the fastest. Chain of custody runs on paper as much as on the cart itself: a seal is applied at the kitchen, checked again before the galley catering is opened, and a temperature log travels with it the whole way. The signature that closes the load is the same one that opened it, so nothing changes custody mid-route between the two ends of the transfer.
One seal, one route, one signature — that is the whole loading window.
Flight kitchen and crew meals for Pasni airport
Airline food supplier crews cleared for PSI
The kitchen that provisions airport catering at PSI runs hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line under one roof, feeding the wide-body stands this station is rated for. That single-site build is what keeps a mixed load moving: passenger meal boxes for one cabin, tray sets for another, cold larder items held apart from both, all HACCP-run under the same production kitchen rather than three separate lines. Airport catering in Pasni is therefore a single order desk against one cold chain, not a set of vendors stitched together per flight.
The team that handles government flight catering at Pasni is the same named crew on every rotation: security clearance on file, listed on the access list, and trained against household standards before a sealed uplift ever leaves the kitchen. Chain of custody sits with that team from the seal to the signature at the aircraft, and no other crew is substituted onto a state or royal movement mid-cycle. The paperwork that travels with the load is theirs to close, not to hand off.
Halal airline meals and special meals at Pasni (PSI)
Royal flight catering standards per cabin at OPPI
Menus for Pasni are built to the cabin and the mission first, and to the season second: a wide-body reference code that takes multi-class traffic means the same rotation can carry a plated First cabin, a hot Business service and a boxed main cabin from one kitchen order. Local sourcing draws on Pakistan's dairy, orchard fruit and fish where the season allows, folded into a specification rather than a fixed dish list. Inflight catering here also carries the documented sets a mixed passenger list needs: allergen, halal, kosher and medical requirements, each labelled per passenger and per cabin before the cart is sealed. Nothing goes on board undocumented, whatever the mission.
First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Pasni are plated to a written specification, with caviar and à-la-carte service available on request rather than fixed by default. VIP flight catering here is filed against the standing order, so a repeat rotation gets the same presentation every time it lands.
Business cabins
Business cabins at OPPI run on multi-choice hot service, packed into galley-ready tray sets sized to the aircraft's own galley rather than a generic format. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately against the duty roster, so the flight deck and the cabin crew are never drawing from the passenger load.
Protocol & dietary
Household, religious and medical requirements are documented per passenger for every departure from Pasni, with halal and kosher sets produced on a separate line and sealed before it leaves that line. The full set of IATA special meal codes is worked from that same documentation, so inflight catering here matches what was ordered, not a default substitute.

Inflight catering delivered to the stand at OPPI / PSI
A wide-body reference code at OPPI puts Pasni in the same operating class as stations built for scheduled, charter and government traffic, and each of those brings a different catering problem: a state movement is a documentation load, a charter wave is a capacity load, a repeat scheduled rotation is a repetition problem that has to be solved the same way every time. Airline catering at PSI is planned against whichever of those the rotation actually is, not against a single generic profile.
Uplift reaches the aircraft here by hi-loader to galley height, moving straight from the sealed cart onto the aircraft rather than staging at the stand. In-flight catering in Pasni and the aviation catering that runs alongside it therefore share one ramp sequence: our own crews hold cleared access onto the stand, and the escort that clears them through is the same one for every load. Airport catering at Pasni is coordinated from a single desk for that reason, so a diversion or a late change does not require rebuilding the plan from the ramp up.
What we commit to on this station is one coordinator per rotation, sealed carts from kitchen to stand, and a signed handover that closes the load the same way it opened it.
Scheduled, charter and VVIP catering at PSI
01
Government and state flight catering at Pasni
A 2743 m runway at OPPI, long enough to take a wide-body head of state aircraft without a payload restriction, is what makes government flight catering a standing capability here rather than a one-off request. Protocol is documented per passenger, staff are security-cleared before they touch the load, and the uplift at OPPI is sealed before it ever leaves the kitchen for a state visit or an official delegation.

Royal and VVIP flight catering at PSI
We hold the wide-body reference code at Pasni against private airliners, BBJ, ACJ and wide-body VIP configurations alike, running royal flight catering from a written household specification kept on file between movements rather than rebuilt each time. Our crews carry halal and other household dietary requirements as standing options on that same file, so a royal household's standard travels with the record, not with memory.

Charter and ACMI flight catering at Pasni
Wide-body is the reference code Pasni is rated to, and it carries charter airlines, ACMI and wet-lease operators, group movements and special missions across the same stands as scheduled traffic. Charter flight catering in Pasni loads a full three-cabin uplift counted against the loading sheet, staged in the order the galleys are laid out, with charter flight catering in Pakistan run to the same standard on repeat rotations.

04
Airline and ad hoc catering at Pasni
A wide-body reference code at OPPI has to be sequenced around a single 2743 m runway, which sets how many rotations a duty roster can carry without stacking two loads at once. Within that limit we run ad hoc airline catering for carriers working this station as an outstation, with outstation catering, diversion catering, technical stop catering and AOG covered off one desk across a multi-leg rotation, tray standard held constant while the ad hoc catering plan itself changes week to week; crew meals at Pasni and crew meals at OPPI travel on the same duty roster.

Private jet and FBO catering at PSI
A wide-body ramp built for full airline rotations also carries the smaller movements that route through the GA terminal at Pasni, so business aircraft draw on the same cold chain rather than a separate lighter one. Private jet catering at OPPI is run by our dedicated branch, delivered to the FBOs on the field and the GA terminal on the same paperwork as an airline uplift.

“We were looking for a dependable airline catering broker in Pasni (PSI/OPPI) and the process was straightforward. The response time was good and we did not have to manage several local suppliers ourselves. It made the station much easier to manage. The order was complete on arrival and easy for us to check before closing the doors.”

Emma — Flight Services Coordinator
“I arranged airline catering in Pasni for our departure from PSI/OPPI. Everything arrived fresh, well presented, and easy for the cabin crew to organize before boarding. We had a smooth experience from order to delivery. The final handover was simple and there was nothing for the crew to correct before departure.”
★★★★★Scheduled airline
Giulia — Network Control Coordinator
“For our flight from Pasni (PSI/OPPI), the cabin order included multiple halal airline meals. The team confirmed the dietary details carefully and there was no confusion when the order arrived. That attention to detail makes a big difference onboard. From an operational point of view, the service was easy to manage and required very little follow-up.”

Inflight catering FAQ for Pasni (PSI)
Diversion catering and ramp questions at Pasni (PSI)
What operations gets asked every week about Pasni.
Ask operations directly →Pasni: are halal, kosher and the full set of IATA special meal codes produced here?
Sealed carts carry halal, kosher and the standard SPML set on every rotation through Pasni, each one documented against the passenger list before it leaves the kitchen.
The loading window: how far in advance must an order for Pasni be placed, and how late can the specification change?
There is a standing cut-off for the initial order at Pasni's airport, with a shorter secondary window for last-minute airline catering changes once the cabin count is confirmed.
At which point does a movement through PSI switch onto VIP flight catering or government flight catering protocol?
At which point the passenger manifest is flagged determines it: from there the file moves onto our protocol track, with security clearance and sealed handling for the rest of the rotation.
How far does private jet catering at OPPI reach beyond the main ramp?
The same cold chain that covers the airline stands extends to the FBOs on the field and the GA terminal, so FBO catering runs on identical paperwork.
Pasni: who sets the price for a catering order here, since there is no published list?
Whose specification drives the quote — cabin count, meal count and the loading window all move the figure, and the desk returns a number once those are fixed.
Does airline catering at Pasni airport reach the aircraft directly, without a stop at the foot of the steps?
Every uplift here is boarded by hi-loader straight to galley height, with airside delivery run under our own ramp access rather than handed off at the stand.
