Aviation catering — Paris, France

Private jet catering, VIP flight catering and airline catering at Charles de Gaulle International Airport (LFPG / CDG), Paris

CDG (IATA) · LFPG (ICAO)

Four runways and wide-body stands sized for a full three-cabin uplift mean AERO GOURMET runs inflight catering and in-flight catering at Charles de Gaulle International Airport (LFPG), Paris, France, for scheduled, charter, VIP, government and private jet flights. Wide-body inflight catering here means hi-loader boarding straight to galley height, airside, one ops desk, 24/7.

Aircraft catering handover at the galley door, Paris, France

CDG catering is measured, not estimated: the clock starts when a cart is sealed at our kitchen and stops when the galley door signature is taken at Charles de Gaulle International Airport. Ramp access held on our own badges keeps that interval free of a second handover, so a catering uplift for a wide-body rotation moves under one continuous chain rather than several. Every stage of that movement is logged against the flight it serves, not against a shared schedule.

Four branded catering carts latched side by side in an aircraft galley, each door closed on a coloured seal.

Between our kitchen and the stand at Charles de Gaulle International Airport sit screening, escort and apron traffic, and a chain of custody exists precisely because none of those three is guaranteed to run to plan on a given rotation. We plan the catering uplift and the galley catering against the worst case among them, holding spare time rather than spending it, so a queue at screening does not become a delay on the stand. Temperature is logged when the cart is sealed at the kitchen and logged again at the galley handover, and the load is not accepted onto the aircraft without a signature closing both ends of that record.

One sealed record runs from the kitchen door to the signature at the galley.

Airline food supplier crews cleared for LFPG / CDG

Airport catering at Charles de Gaulle International Airport draws on hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line held under one roof, so a wide-body rotation is not split across separate kitchens for its main cabin trays and its First cabin service. HACCP governs every stage of that production, from intake to the sealed cart, and the cold chain is held continuously rather than reset between rooms. Airport catering France run this way means a delegation flight and a scheduled rotation are prepared side by side without either one waiting on the other, with flight kitchen CDG output tracked line by line against the loading sheet.

The team that handles government flight catering at Charles de Gaulle International Airport is the same named crew on every rotation, with security clearance on file and standing entries on the access list rather than a request raised flight by flight. They are trained to household standards for royal and state work and drilled on the paperwork a sealed uplift carries through screening and escort. That continuity means the protocol file, the access list and the loading sheet all point to the same names, rotation after rotation.

Royal flight catering standards per cabin at Paris

Menus at Charles de Gaulle International Airport are written to the cabin and the mission rather than to one fixed standard, so a First cabin plated service and a main cabin tray set leave the same kitchen on different specifications. Inflight catering here draws on the produce of the surrounding region, dairy, orchard fruit and fish worked into seasonal menus that shift with what the larder is holding that month. Every set carries documentation for allergen content, and halal, kosher and medical requirements are produced against a written order rather than adapted on the day. Labels travel per passenger and per cabin, so a mixed load of dietary sets can be reconciled against the roster at the galley door.

First & VVIP cabins

First and VVIP cabins at Charles de Gaulle International Airport are plated to a written specification rather than a fixed menu, with VIP flight catering built around à-la-carte service on request and a presentation filed against the standing order for that customer. Caviar service and course-by-course plating are staged so the galley team can run them to timing rather than to a fixed tray count.

Business cabins

Business cabins at LFPG take multi-choice hot service built to cabin specification, with oven-ready formats sized to the galley fitted on each aircraft type. Cabin crew meals and pilot meals travel boxed to the roster alongside the passenger trays, so crew meals at Charles de Gaulle International Airport never depend on a separate order being placed after the main load is confirmed.

Diet.

Protocol & dietary

Protocol and dietary requirements at Paris are documented per passenger rather than batched, covering household, religious and medical sets alongside halal and kosher production and the full range of IATA special meal codes. Inflight catering Paris runs these sets on a separate production line, sealed before it joins the main load, so a mixed-dietary cabin reconciles cleanly against the roster at boarding.

Flight catering airside delivery at Paris (CDG)

Charles de Gaulle International Airport carries scheduled, charter and government traffic across four runways rated for wide-body movements, and that mix sets three different catering problems side by side: a delegation brings a protocol file to manage, a bank of departures brings a capacity problem to sequence, and a repeat rotation brings a specification that has to hold steady week after week. Airline catering France and aviation catering in Paris are run off one ops desk so those three problems are worked by the same team rather than handed between separate lines.

The uplift moves from our flight kitchen to the ramp under ground handling arranged for each stand, with airside delivery in-flight catering LFPG taken to galley height by hi-loader rather than left at the foot of the aircraft. Airport catering in Paris is planned stand by stand, with ramp access held on our own badges so the convoy is not waiting on a shared pass at the gate.

One coordinator carries the load from seal to signature, and inflight catering near Charles de Gaulle International Airport closes on a handover record that both the loading crew and the aircraft side sign before the doors are closed.

01
Government and state flight catering at Paris
A dedicated line inside our LFPG catering flight kitchen keeps head of state movements off the general production schedule entirely, so a state visit is not queued behind a bank of scheduled departures. Government flight catering for delegations and official movements is documented per passenger, run by security-cleared staff, and sealed before it leaves the kitchen for the stand.

Royal and VVIP flight catering at LFPG
Wide-body stands rated for the largest private airliners let a BBJ, an ACJ or a wide-body VIP aircraft board at Charles de Gaulle International Airport without a change of ramp equipment between one movement and the next. Royal flight catering is held to a written household specification kept on file between rotations, with halal sets and other household dietary requirements produced against that same standing order.

Charter and ACMI flight catering at CDG
Four runways handling wide-body traffic keep a full ACMI rotation moving on the same stand allocation as a scheduled service, so a group charter does not wait behind other movements for its slot. Charter flight catering at Charles de Gaulle International Airport covers wet-lease operators, sports team and tour operator charters and repatriation missions, with charter flight catering CDG staged in the order the galleys are laid out against the loading sheet.

Airline and ad hoc catering at Paris
Four runways rated to a wide-body reference code put outstation catering, diversion catering and technical stop catering on the same stand rotation as a scheduled service, without a separate ramp for irregular movements. Ad hoc airline catering France runs off one duty roster at CDG ad hoc catering desk level, AOG included, with crew meals near Charles de Gaulle International Airport carried on the same load across a multi-leg rotation.

Private jet and FBO catering at LFPG
The GA terminal and the FBOs on the field at Charles de Gaulle International Airport sit apart from the main wide-body ramp, and private jet catering Paris runs through our dedicated business-aviation branch rather than the main airline desk. FBO catering and business aviation catering follow the same cold chain and the same handover paperwork as a wide-body uplift, just delivered to a different stand.

Scheduled airline

“We needed delegation flight catering at Paris (CDG/LFPG) for a protocol-sensitive flight. Special meals and crew items were clearly separated, and the aircraft-side handover was smooth. We would trust the team again for a similar movement. Updates were timely and the final delivery matched the confirmation we had from operations.”

Kareem — Client Services Manager

“We ordered ACJ catering for our aircraft at Paris (CDG/LFPG) and the result was very good. Everything arrived neatly packed, easy to identify in the galley, and consistent with the presentation we requested. Good quality and very practical for onboard service. The final handover was simple and there was nothing for the crew to correct before departure.”

Alberto — State Aviation Manager

“Our charter program used the service at Paris (CDG/LFPG) for hajj charter 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. Updates were timely and the final delivery matched the confirmation we had from operations.”

Business jet catering questions at LFPG

Technical stop catering questions at LFPG

What operations gets asked every week about Paris.

Ask operations directly →
When is halal, kosher and IATA-coded meal production documented at LFPG?

When an order is placed, the specification records halal, kosher and any other special meal code from the IATA list, and that record travels with the sealed load through to the galley handover.

How much does airline catering cost in Paris?

Airline catering cost at this station is set by cabin count, the specification chosen and the loading window requested, so the desk reviews those three points and returns a quotation rather than working from a published price list.

Can you deliver airline catering airside at Charles de Gaulle International Airport?

Four runways rated for wide-body movements support airside delivery direct to the stand, with a hi-loader taking the uplift to galley height rather than leaving it at the foot of the aircraft.

What protocol governs VIP flight catering and government flight catering at CDG?

We run VIP flight catering and government flight catering under a documented protocol file, with security-cleared staff handling the load and a signed record closing the handover at the stand.

Where is the lead time for an order at LFPG recorded?

The loading sheet fixes how far in advance an order must be placed and how late the specification can still change, and last minute airline catering is worked against that same document rather than a verbal agreement.
