AOI (IATA) · LIPY (ICAO)
The 2962 m runway at Falconara Marittima clears wide-body movements onto stands where our hi-loader brings inflight catering straight to galley height, cabin by cabin, rather than leaving it stacked at the foot of the aircraft. In-flight catering here runs on one ops desk, sealed carts and a measured uplift, from scheduled service through to a diverted wide-body needing a fast turnaround.

Aviation catering from sealed cart to galley door at LIPY
Ramp access at Falconara Marittima is what sets the catering uplift apart from a kerbside drop: the cart moves from our sealed kitchen store straight across the apron to the aircraft door. Nothing changes hands at the foot of the steps here, because the hi-loader carries the load to the galley itself. That single continuous move is what the loading window at AOI actually measures.
Between our kitchen and the stand at Falconara Marittima sit airside screening, an escort vehicle and the ordinary traffic of the apron, and we plan the catering uplift against the busiest of those, not the easiest. Every cart is sealed at the kitchen door, logged again at handover, and the chain of custody runs unbroken from one to the other. A duty coordinator signs the load onto the galley personally, so the paperwork and the food arrive as one file rather than two separate movements.
One seal at the kitchen, one signature at the galley, nothing in between.
Pilot meals and cabin service produced for Falconara Marittima
Cargo crew meals produced to the same standard at LIPY / AOI
Airport catering at Falconara Marittima is provisioned from a kitchen that runs hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line under a single HACCP-audited roof. That combination is what lets airport catering here move from a scheduled tray run to a sealed VIP set without changing kitchens or handlers mid-rotation. Flight kitchen output at AOI stays on one cold chain from the moment it leaves the larder to the moment it is logged onto the stand.
The staff assigned to government flight catering at Falconara Marittima are the same named team on every rotation, not a rota drawn at random. Each holds security clearance on file, sits on the access list for the sealed area, and is trained to the household standards a royal household or protocol desk expects. That continuity is what lets a repeat delegation move through the kitchen without repeating its own briefing each time.
Inflight catering menus and special meals at LIPY / AOI
VVIP catering to a written specification at Falconara Marittima (AOI)
Menus at Falconara Marittima are written to the cabin and the mission rather than to a single fixed card, so a scheduled rotation and a VVIP movement leave the same kitchen on different specifications. Where local sourcing applies, dairy, orchard fruit and regional produce enter the plan in general terms, never as a named dish or supplier. Inflight catering here runs through First, Business and main cabin on parallel lines so no cabin waits on another to close. Every allergen, halal, kosher and medical requirement is documented per passenger and labelled by cabin before it leaves the kitchen.
First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Falconara Marittima are plated to a written specification, with caviar and à-la-carte service available on request rather than fixed to one fixed card. VIP flight catering here is filed against the standing order so a repeat rotation reads the same brief every time it boards.
Business cabins
Business cabins at AOI take multi-choice hot service in oven-ready formats sized to the galley fitted to the aircraft, boxed and sealed as tray sets ready to load. Cabin crew meals and pilot meals travel in their own crew meal boxes, kept apart from the passenger service and logged against the roster.
Protocol & dietary
Household, religious and medical requirements travel documented per passenger at LIPY, with halal and kosher sets produced on a dedicated line and sealed before they leave it. The full range of IATA special meal codes is covered, so inflight catering here answers a dietary brief without a separate order.

Flight catering airside delivery at AOI
Falconara Marittima sits on a single 2962 m runway and one wide-body reference code, which means every movement through it, whether a scheduled service or an unscheduled diversion, is worked on the same stand infrastructure rather than split across parallel piers. A delegation arriving here is chiefly a documentation exercise; a diverted wide-body is a capacity exercise on the same ramp footprint. Airline catering at LIPY and inflight catering for scheduled traffic share one ops desk with in-flight catering for VIP and government movements, so the same coordinator carries both files.
The uplift reaches the aircraft by a fixed route from our kitchen across the apron to the assigned stand, loaded by hi-loader to galley height rather than left at the foot of the steps. Aviation catering at Falconara Marittima is airside-delivered on that route for every movement type, with the loading crew working from the same sealed-cart procedure whatever the mission.
What we commit to at AOI is one named coordinator per rotation, carts sealed at the kitchen and a signed handover at the galley door, so airport catering here carries a single accountable file from kitchen to cabin.

Royal and VVIP flight catering at AOI
Sequencing a household movement around the wide-body reference code held at this field means the loading order is fixed before the aircraft ever reaches the stand. Royal flight catering and VVIP work for private airliners, BBJ, ACJ and wide-body VIP types, run to a written household specification kept on file between movements, with halal and household requirements available on request.

Charter and ACMI flight catering at LIPY
2962 metres of runway, which is enough to clear a wide-body charter movement off a single stand without splitting the rotation across two slots. Charter flight catering at Falconara Marittima serves ACMI and wet-lease operators, group movements and special missions with a full three-cabin uplift counted against the loading sheet, staged in galley order, and charter flight catering in Falconara Marittima stays on that same sheet through every leg.

Airline and ad hoc catering at LIPY

Scheduled airline
“I asked for aviation catering packaging at Falconara Marittima (AOI/LIPY) 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. Good attention to the operational side of catering. From an operational point of view, the service was easy to manage and required very little follow-up.”
★★★★★Scheduled airline
Camila — Trip Operations Coordinator
“For a changing schedule at Falconara Marittima (AOI/LIPY), we needed flexible ACMI. The uplift was organized around our revised departure and reached the aircraft without delaying the turn. We appreciated how easy the coordination was. Responses were quick whenever we had a question, which helped us keep the flight on schedule.”
★★★★★Scheduled airline
Marta — Airline Dispatch Manager
“I ordered FBO catering for our departure from Falconara Marittima (AOI/LIPY) and was very happy with the service. The food arrived fresh and well presented, with clear labels and packaging that actually worked in our galley. Exactly what I want from a private aviation caterer. That made the turnaround easier for both the flight crew and the team on the ground.”

Diversion catering and ramp questions at LIPY / AOI
What operations gets asked every week about Falconara Marittima.
Ask operations directly →At what point are halal, kosher and special meal codes confirmed for a flight through Falconara Marittima?
At order confirmation the SPML code is logged against the passenger record, then halal and kosher trays are produced on a separate line and sealed before dispatch so the documentation travels with the meal.
Who handles private jet catering delivery to the FBOs and the GA terminal at Falconara Marittima Airport?
For every FBO catering request on the field, our kitchen delivers to the GA terminal and to each FBO under the same cold chain and paperwork used for an airline uplift.
How far in advance does AOI need an order, and how late can the specification still change?
Our standard lead time covers a scheduled rotation comfortably, and the desk can still amend cabin counts or a dietary line close to departure without resetting the whole order.
Where does airline catering reach the aircraft at LIPY, on the stand or at a gate counter?
The signed handover sheet shows every load reaching the aircraft by airside delivery, boarded by hi-loader directly to the galley door rather than dropped at the foot of the steps.
Does Falconara Marittima cater VIP, VVIP and government flights, and under what protocol?
Every VIP flight catering and government flight catering order here runs on a documented protocol file, with security-cleared staff and a sealed uplift signed off before it leaves the kitchen.
Is there a published airline catering cost for flights through Falconara Marittima Airport?
The duty coordinator prices each order once cabin count, specification and loading window are confirmed, since airline catering cost is quoted per rotation rather than fixed on a list.
