Aviation catering — Beauvais, France
Airside airline catering, VIP & private jet catering at Beauvais (LFOB / BVA)
BVA (IATA) · LFOB (ICAO)
Beauvais holds a narrow-body reference code, which sets a single-aisle stand as the working unit here rather than a wide-body bay. Every uplift moves by hi-loader to galley height, so in-flight catering and inflight catering leave our kitchen sealed and reach the cabin door without a ground tray in between.

Aircraft catering sealed from kitchen to galley at Beauvais, France
Ramp access governs every catering uplift booked through Beauvais: nothing is set down at the foot of the aircraft, and nothing crosses the apron without an escort cleared for that stand. The cart is sealed at our kitchen, driven to the narrow-body stand assigned for that rotation, and raised by hi-loader straight to the galley door. What the timeline below shows is that sequence, not an estimate of it.

Between our kitchen and the stand at Beauvais sit screening, an escort and apron traffic, and the convoy is the part of the operation we plan hardest against, not the galley catering itself. Every catering uplift is booked to a stand and a time, so the chain of custody runs unbroken from the seal at the kitchen to the handover at the aircraft. Temperature is logged at both ends, the cart is sealed between them, and the receiving crew signs for what they take on.
One team, one sealed cart, one signature from kitchen to galley door.
Pilot meals and crew meals prepared for Beauvais airport

Airline food supplier crews cleared for LFOB / BVA
The flight kitchen provisioning LFOB runs hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line under one roof, all to HACCP standard, feeding both scheduled rotations and one-off VIP movements out of the same building. Airport catering at Beauvais is planned from that single site rather than split across contractors, which keeps the cold chain unbroken from the first tray sealed to the last one loaded. That same production line is what airport catering in Beauvais draws on for a diverted aircraft as much as for a scheduled departure.
The team handling government flight catering at Beauvais is the same named crew on every rotation, not a rotating pool assigned on the day. Security clearance is held on file, each member sits on the access list for the stand in question, and household service standards are trained into the team before a royal or state movement is ever booked. That continuity is what lets a protocol officer deal with one desk instead of re-briefing a new crew each time.
VIP flight catering and dietary sets at LFOB
Commercial aviation catering written per cabin at Beauvais
Menus at Beauvais are written to the cabin and the mission first, and to the season second, so a First cabin tray set and a group-charter tray set never come off the same specification. Inflight catering here draws on regional produce where the season allows it, sourced in general terms rather than named dish by dish, and adjusted as the sourcing available in France changes through the year. Every set is labelled per passenger and per cabin against the documented allergen, halal, kosher and medical requirements on file for that flight. Nothing leaves the kitchen without that label attached, whatever the size of the order.

First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Beauvais are plated to a written specification, with caviar and à-la-carte service available on request rather than fixed to a single format. VIP flight catering here is filed against the standing order for that aircraft, so the presentation is repeatable across every rotation it flies.

Business cabins
Business cabins at LFOB run multi-choice hot service in galley-ready tray sets, sized to the aircraft's own galley rather than a generic format. Crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately from the passenger load, with cabin crew meals labelled to the roster rather than the seat count.

Protocol & dietary
Household, religious and medical requirements are documented per passenger for every flight out of France, from halal and kosher sets to the full range of IATA special meal codes. Inflight catering built to those codes is produced on a separate line and sealed before it leaves the kitchen, kept apart from the general passenger load throughout.

Aircraft catering under HACCP control at Beauvais, France
Airside airport catering at Beauvais (BVA)
Beauvais holds a narrow-body reference code, which sets the working unit for every rotation here at a single-aisle stand rather than a wide-body bay: a delegation is handled as a documentation exercise on that stand, a peak departure wave as a capacity exercise, and a repeat charter rotation as a repetition exercise, each planned to the same stand assignment.
The uplift travels from our kitchen to the stand by sealed cart, escorted across the apron, then goes up by hi-loader to the galley door rather than being set down at the foot of the aircraft; ground handling on that stand is coordinated directly with whoever is working the turnaround. Inflight catering and in-flight catering off this kitchen run through the same ramp routing regardless of the carrier, and aviation catering in France more broadly follows the same escorted pattern we use here. Airport catering at Beauvais is planned stand by stand rather than as a single daily batch, and airline catering at LFOB is booked against that stand assignment before the cart is ever loaded.
On every rotation we commit one coordinator to the load, a sealed cart from kitchen to stand, and a signed handover at the galley door.

“For our departure from Beauvais (BVA/LFOB), we specifically needed tray set catering airline. Presentation stayed good while the setup remained practical for a fast aircraft turnaround. The crew appreciated how easy it was to load. That made the turnaround easier for both the flight crew and the team on the ground.”

Aiden — Turnaround Coordinator
“For a changing schedule at Beauvais (BVA/LFOB), we needed flexible catering uplift. They understood the operational language and did not need every change explained twice. A very useful service for ad hoc flying. Updates were timely and the final delivery matched the confirmation we had from operations. From an operational point of view, the service was easy to manage and required very little follow-up.”
★★★★★Private jet operator
John — Corporate Aviation Manager
“I ordered business jet catering for our departure from Beauvais (BVA/LFOB) and was very happy with the service. They followed my notes closely, kept me updated, and delivered at the time agreed with the FBO. Reliable, responsive, and easy to work with. The order was complete on arrival and easy for us to check before closing the doors.”

Diversion catering and ramp questions at LFOB
What operations gets asked every week about Beauvais.
Ask operations directly →Do you cater VIP, VVIP and government flights at LFOB?
Yes, under a fixed protocol: VIP flight catering and government flight catering are both handled by the same security-cleared team, with the uplift sealed at the kitchen before it reaches the stand.
With a narrow-body stand as the working unit, how much does airline catering cost at Beauvais?
There is no published price list; a quotation depends on cabin count, the specification chosen and the loading window booked for that rotation, and our desk returns one once those are known.
Can you deliver private jet catering to the FBOs and the GA terminal at Beauvais Airport?
Yes, delivery covers every FBO on the field and the GA terminal directly, with FBO catering run on the same cold chain and paperwork as an airline uplift.
BVA — do you deliver airline catering airside, and how does the uplift reach the aircraft?
The hi-loader carries every sealed cart from our kitchen straight to the galley door, so airside delivery here never puts a tray down at the foot of the aircraft.
