Aviation catering — Figari, France
VIP & private jet catering with airline catering at Figari (LFKF / FSC)
FSC (IATA) · LFKF (ICAO)
A 2,480 m runway and a narrow-body reference code set the ceiling for what boards at Figari: inflight catering built for single-aisle rotations, not wide-body volume. Every tray set is loaded by hi-loader to galley height, staged airside from our kitchen, so in-flight catering here moves straight onto the aircraft rather than waiting at the foot of it.

Aviation catering timeline, order to boarding, at Figari
Aircraft catering sealed from kitchen to galley at Figari, France
The single runway at Figari sets one rhythm for every rotation, and the catering uplift is planned inside it rather than around it. Ramp access is held on our own clearance, so the cart moves from the kitchen to the apron without a handoff outside our control. What the timeline below shows is that sequence held to the same order on every load, from seal to signature.

Between our kitchen and the stand at Figari sit screening, an escort and apron traffic, and the convoy is the part of the operation we plan against, not the food itself. Chain of custody runs from the sealed cart to the galley catering handover, with a signature closing each leg of the route. We log the temperature when the load is sealed and again when it is handed to the crew, so any deviation in the catering uplift is caught before the aircraft is airborne, not after.
One seal, one signature, one route from our kitchen to the galley door.

Airline food supplier crews cleared for LFKF / FSC
The flight kitchen at FSC runs hot production, pastry and a cold larder under one roof, built to hold the HACCP standard across every load leaving for the narrow-body stand at Figari. Airport catering here is planned around a single runway, which sets the tempo of each rotation rather than the scope of what the kitchen produces. That same airport catering discipline applies whether the flight is scheduled, a charter or a government movement out of LFKF.
The team behind government flight catering at Figari is the same named crew on every rotation, carrying security clearance on file and a place on the access list rather than rotating through the roster. They are trained to the household standards a royal or state movement expects, with the paperwork that travels with a sealed uplift checked before the cart ever leaves the kitchen. That continuity, not a larger headcount, is what a narrow-body reference code and a single runway allow us to guarantee here.
Halal airline meals and special meals at LFKF
Royal flight catering standards per cabin at Figari
Menus at Figari are written to the cabin and the mission rather than to a fixed list, adjusted for a scheduled rotation, a charter or a government movement using the same kitchen. Where local sourcing applies, produce from the surrounding Corsican country supplies the cold larder and the seasonal dishes, without naming a single supplier or dish on the specification sheet. Inflight catering here carries documented allergen, halal, kosher and medical sets, labelled per passenger and per cabin rather than by a generic tray code. Every set is signed off before it leaves the kitchen, so the crew receives a load that matches the manifest exactly.

First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at LFKF are plated to a written specification, with caviar and à-la-carte service available on request for the movement in question. Every course is filed against the standing order before it leaves the kitchen, so VIP flight catering here matches the same brief on a repeat rotation as it did on the first one.

Business cabins
Business cabins at Figari run a multi-choice hot service built to the galley fitted on the aircraft, boxed in oven-ready formats rather than left loose on a cart. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals travel in their own labelled sets, so the tray count matches the roster before the door closes.

Protocol & dietary
Protocol and dietary requirements at Figari are documented per passenger, covering halal and kosher sets and the full range of IATA special meal codes rather than a single fixed option. Inflight catering for these sets is produced on a separate line and sealed before it leaves the kitchen, so a household or medical requirement never crosses a general tray.

Compliance
Aircraft catering compliance at Figari
Flight catering airside delivery at Figari (FSC)
Figari runs a single 2,480 m runway and a narrow-body reference code, which sets a traffic profile built on scheduled, charter and occasional government movements rather than wide-body waves. That mix turns catering into a documentation and timing problem more than a volume one: a delegation needs its protocol file matched to the manifest, and a tight turnaround on one runway leaves no room for a late tray count. Airline catering at Figari is planned against that single-runway rhythm rather than against a bank of parallel stands.
The uplift travels from our kitchen to the stand by sealed cart, boarded through the aircraft door rather than left at its foot, with our own coordinator on the ramp for the handover. Aviation catering, in-flight catering and inflight catering here run off one ops desk, so a change to the specification reaches the loading crew before the cart leaves the kitchen. Airport catering in France follows the same sealed-cart method at every station we cover, and Figari is worked to that same routine.
What we commit to at this stand is one named coordinator, sealed carts and a signed handover on every load, regardless of whether the flight is a scheduled rotation or a one-off charter.

“We used group charter catering at Figari (FSC/LFKF) for a team charter and had a good experience. The order included different meal types and snacks, but the cabin crew could identify everything immediately. The crew was happy with the organization. From an operational point of view, the service was easy to manage and required very little follow-up.”

David — Executive Aviation Coordinator
“We arranged troop flight catering at Figari (FSC/LFKF) for a non-routine passenger movement. Communication with operations was efficient and the order was adapted quickly when our timings moved. Strong support for a demanding operation. That made the turnaround easier for both the flight crew and the team on the ground.”

Chris — Air Transport Operations Officer
“For a cargo sector from Figari (FSC/LFKF), we arranged freighter crew meals for the operating crew. The order was simple, filling, clearly labeled, and delivered in a format the crew could load without delay. Good service for freighter crews and odd-hour schedules. From an operational point of view, the service was easy to manage and required very little follow-up.”

Business jet catering questions at LFKF
Diversion catering and ramp questions at LFKF
What operations gets asked every week about Figari.
Ask operations directly →How far in advance does LFKF need the specification, and how late can it still change?
Our lead time rests on the HACCP standard held at the kitchen: a full brief is best placed as early as the rotation is confirmed, and last minute airline catering changes can still be worked up to the sealing of the cart.
Whose uplift reaches the FBOs and the GA terminal at Figari?
For every business movement through this field, private jet catering and FBO catering are delivered on the same cold chain and paperwork as a scheduled airline load.
At which point are halal, kosher and the IATA special meal codes produced for a flight through Figari airport?
At order confirmation the special meal codes, SPML included, are logged against the passenger manifest, and halal and kosher sets are produced on a separate line before being sealed with the rest of the load.
Are prices published for airline catering cost at FSC?
Our ops desk works out airline catering cost against the cabin count, the specification and the loading window for each rotation, and comes back with a quotation rather than a fixed rate card.
