Aviation catering — Mykonos, Greece
Mykonos (LGMK / JMK): airline catering, VIP flight catering and private jet catering
JMK (IATA) · LGMK (ICAO)
On the single narrow-body runway at Mykonos, aircraft board on one wide-body-capable stand rather than across a dispersed field, which keeps every uplift on one ops desk instead of several. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering run from that stand by hi-loader to galley height, sealed at our kitchen and boarded airside without a foot-of-aircraft handover.

Aviation catering from sealed cart to galley door at Mykonos
Every catering uplift at Mykonos is planned per rotation, from the sealed cart leaving our kitchen to the moment it clears the galley door. Ramp access here is held on our own clearance rather than negotiated stand by stand, so the convoy crosses the apron on a fixed route instead of a improvised one. That single wide-body-capable stand means the sequence rarely competes with a second movement for the same slot.
Between our kitchen and the stand at Mykonos sit screening, an escort across the apron, and the ordinary traffic of a single runway working scheduled and charter movements in the same window. We build the galley catering sequence against the worst of those, not the average of them, so a delay on the ramp does not become a delay at the door. Chain of custody runs on a written sheet: who sealed the load, who escorted it, who signed for the catering uplift at handover, with temperature logged at both ends of the run. The same sheet travels with government, royal and charter rotations alike, because the standard does not change with the passenger.
One seal at the kitchen, one signature at the aircraft, nothing loose in between.

Pilot meals and cleared production crews for JMK
Airport catering at Mykonos runs from a kitchen built to work as one unit rather than several, with hot production, a cold larder and a protocol line each answering to the same HACCP standard. That single-building layout is what lets airport catering here move straight from production into a sealed cold chain rather than through a handover between separate facilities. For a field worked off one narrow-body-classed stand, keeping every function under one roof is what turns a rotation into a single sequence instead of a set of separate deliveries.
The team that handles government flight catering at Mykonos is the same named crew on every rotation, not a rotating pool assigned on the day. Each member carries security clearance on file and sits on the access list before a load is sealed, and each is trained to the household and diplomatic standards that royal and state work is held to. That continuity is what lets a repeat delegation movement run to the same specification each time, without the file being rebuilt from nothing.
VIP flight catering and dietary sets at Mykonos (JMK)
Royal flight catering standards per cabin at LGMK
Menus at Mykonos are written to the cabin and the mission rather than to a fixed list, drawing on the produce of the Greek islands and mainland where the route allows it: dairy, olive oil, fish and orchard fruit worked into a tray set rather than named as a dish. From passenger meal boxes to VVIP menus, the inflight catering specification at JMK moves with the season and the operator's own standing order, not with a printed brochure. Every set is documented against declared allergens, halal and kosher requirements, and the medical restrictions a passenger has filed in advance. That documentation travels labelled per passenger and per cabin, so a crew checking a tray against a manifest is checking a written record, not a guess.
First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Mykonos are plated to a written specification held on file between rotations, with caviar and à-la-carte service available on request rather than fixed to a set menu. VIP flight catering here is produced on its own line and staged separately from the main-cabin run, so the forward cabin never shares a tray path with the rest of the aircraft.
Business cabins
Business cabins at LGMK take multi-choice hot service built to galley-ready tray sets sized to the aircraft actually on stand, not to a generic format. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately from the passenger load and labelled to the roster, so cabin crew meals and flight-deck sets clear the same seal check without being mixed into the main uplift.
Protocol & dietary
Protocol and dietary requirements at Mykonos are documented per passenger before the load is sealed, covering household, religious and medical needs rather than left to be resolved on the day. Halal and kosher sets and the full range of IATA special meal codes are produced on a separate line, which is how inflight catering in Greece keeps a religious or medical set from ever touching a standard tray.

Flight catering airside delivery at LGMK / JMK
Mykonos handles a mix of scheduled, charter and government movements across its single narrow-body-classed stand, which turns a delegation into a documentation problem more often than a capacity one and a peak charter wave into a sequencing problem on one loading plan rather than several. Airline catering at LGMK and airport catering in Mykonos are worked off the same ops desk regardless of which segment is flying, because the stand does not change with the customer.
The uplift travels from our kitchen to the ramp by sealed cart, crosses the apron under escort, and reaches the aircraft by hi-loader to galley height rather than being handed up at the foot of the stairs. Aviation catering at JMK and in-flight catering in Mykonos both move through that same sealed convoy, with our own loading crew working the stand rather than a chain of separate handovers.
On every rotation at Mykonos we commit to one coordinator named against the load, carts sealed before they leave the kitchen, and a signed handover at the aircraft door.
Scheduled, charter and VVIP catering at Mykonos
01
Government and state flight catering at JMK
One narrow-body-classed stand at Mykonos means a state movement is sequenced onto the same apron as scheduled traffic, so the protocol file has to travel ahead of the aircraft rather than be built on arrival. Government flight catering here covers state visits and head of state movements with the file documented per passenger, security-cleared staff assigned to the load, and the uplift sealed before it leaves the kitchen.

02
Royal and VVIP flight catering at Mykonos
We hold a single written specification on file for every private airliner working through Mykonos, from a BBJ or ACJ to a wide-body VVIP configuration, rather than rebuilding it on each rotation. Royal flight catering runs to household standards kept across repeat movements, with halal and other household dietary requirements produced on request and the royal household's own service standard followed on every load.

03
Charter and ACMI flight catering at LGMK
The narrow-body-classed reference code at Mykonos still takes a full three-cabin uplift on its wide-body-capable stand, counted against the loading sheet rather than estimated on the day. Charter flight catering here covers ACMI and wet-lease operators, group movements and special missions, with charter flight catering staged in the order the galleys are laid out on the aircraft actually on stand.
Wide-body charter →
04
Airline and ad hoc catering at JMK
The single narrow-body-classed stand at Mykonos has to sequence every catering movement against the same slot, which means an unscheduled uplift is planned around the traffic already booked rather than run alongside a spare stand. Ad hoc airline catering at LGMK covers carriers running this station as an outstation, with outstation catering, diversion catering and technical stop catering handled off the same duty roster, AOG included, across a multi-leg rotation. Crew meals at JMK and crew meals in Greece move on that same roster rather than a separate one.

05
Private jet and FBO catering at Mykonos
A business jet using the same narrow-body-classed stand as a scheduled arrival at Mykonos is boarded on the same sealed sequence, not a separate one. Private jet catering here is delivered to the FBOs on the field and the GA terminal by our dedicated branch, with FBO catering, business aviation catering and business jet catering all held to the same cold chain and paperwork as an airline uplift.

“I asked for airline meal boxes at Mykonos (JMK/LGMK) because we had limited time to reset the galley. The trays and boxes were organized logically, which saved the cabin crew time before passengers arrived. Exactly what we need for a quick galley setup. The final handover was simple and there was nothing for the crew to correct before departure.”

Jasmine — Cargo Flight Support Manager
“For a changing schedule at Mykonos (JMK/LGMK), we needed flexible tech stop. Communication between dispatch, handling, and catering was clear throughout. Good support for a changing flight schedule. Updates were timely and the final delivery matched the confirmation we had from operations. The order was complete on arrival and easy for us to check before closing the doors.”

Naomi — Operations Desk Coordinator
“I needed reliable business jet catering at Mykonos (JMK/LGMK) for a same-day departure. Everything was easy to check and load, and the passenger requests were prepared exactly as ordered. I would definitely order from them again. Responses were quick whenever we had a question, which helped us keep the flight on schedule.”

Airline catering questions for Mykonos airport
Diversion catering and ramp questions at Mykonos (JMK)
What operations gets asked every week about Mykonos.
Ask operations directly →Working out of the GA terminal, can Mykonos deliver private jet catering to the FBOs on the field?
There is coverage across every FBO and the GA terminal at Mykonos, with FBO catering run on the same cold chain and paperwork as an airline uplift.
Does JMK cater VIP, VVIP and government flights, and under what protocol?
The hi-loader that boards a scheduled arrival also boards VIP flight catering and government flight catering at JMK, sealed at the kitchen with the protocol file documented per passenger.
Can an order still change close to departure at LGMK?
The loading window is fixed once the cart leaves the kitchen, so how far in advance a specification can move depends on where the aircraft sits in that window; most changes clear if raised before sealing.
How far in advance does Mykonos need a booking, and what does airline catering cost here?
How late a change can be made depends on the standard the load is held to; we publish no price list, and a quotation follows cabin count, specification and the loading window once the ops desk has the booking.
