Aviation catering — Moscow, Russia
Private jet catering, VIP flight catering and airline catering at Moscow (UUWW / VKO)
VKO (IATA) · UUWW (ICAO)
A wide-body reference code and two runways of 3500 metres let a full-body airliner board here without compromise, and that same capacity supports scheduled, charter, government and private jet flights on one apron. AERO GOURMET runs inflight catering and in-flight catering from a hi-loader lifted to galley height, with wide-body aviation catering staged on the ramp and boarded through the galley door, not left at the foot of the stand.

Aviation catering lead times and loading window at Moscow
Flight catering sealed and logged to the stand at UUWW / VKO
Moscow's wide-body reference code sets the loading sequence our teams work to on every rotation. Ramp access is held on our own credentials rather than borrowed from a handler, so the catering uplift moves from sealed cart to galley door without a stop at the foot of the aircraft. The apron dictates the order of movement, and the sequence is built around it, not around a generic checklist.
Between our kitchen and the stand at Moscow sit screening, escort clearance and apron traffic that shift by the hour, and the loading plan for every catering uplift is built against the worst version of that mix rather than the average one. A convoy delayed at a checkpoint is a bigger risk to a rotation than anything happening inside the galley catering itself, so the route and its timing are fixed before the cart is sealed. Temperatures are logged at sealing and again at handover, and the load is closed with a signature that ties the chain of custody to one named team, from kitchen to stand at UUWW.
One responsibility runs from the seal at the kitchen to the signature at the aircraft.
Airline food supplier kitchen serving VKO
Crew meals and passenger sets from one kitchen at UUWW / VKO
Airport catering at UUWW runs from a production kitchen holding hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol cell under one roof, built to serve wide-body rotations rather than single flights. That structure means a multi-class order for three cabins is built and sealed as one job, not assembled from separate stations, and it is what makes airport catering at Moscow workable at wide-body scale. Every tray leaving that flight kitchen at VKO is produced to a written HACCP standard, held constant whether the order is a single ad hoc uplift or a full rotation.
The team handling government flight catering at this kitchen is the same named crew on every rotation, not a rotating pool drawn in for one movement. Each member carries a security clearance on file and sits on the access list before the cart is loaded, trained to royal household service standards as well as to the paperwork that has to travel with a sealed uplift. That continuity is what lets a protocol officer deal with one crew across repeat movements rather than re-briefing a new one each time.
Halal airline meals and special meals at UUWW
Commercial aviation catering written per cabin at Moscow
From passenger meal boxes to VVIP menus, the inflight catering in Moscow follows the cabin, the mission and the season rather than a single fixed list. Menus draw on the region's produce where the season allows it — dairy, orchard fruit, freshwater fish — worked into a VIP flight menu or a charter flight menu without naming a single dish as fixed. Special meals sit inside the same specification: allergen, halal, kosher and medical sets are documented per passenger and per cabin, not bolted on afterwards. The result is a menu range built to move between a scheduled rotation and a government movement without changing the standard it is checked against.
First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at UUWW are plated to a written specification rather than an open brief, with caviar and à-la-carte service available on request against the standing order on file. VIP flight catering here is filed and repeated the same way on every movement, so the presentation a protocol officer signs off once holds for the next rotation too.
Business cabins
Business cabins at Moscow run multi-choice hot service built to cabin specification, in oven-ready formats sized to the galley fitted to the aircraft on that rotation. Crew meals at VKO travel in the same tray sets, with cabin crew meals and pilot meals boxed separately and matched to the duty roster rather than left to be split on board.
Protocol & dietary
Protocol and dietary requirements at UUWW are documented per passenger before the cart is sealed, covering household, religious and medical sets alongside halal and kosher production. The full range of IATA special meal codes is produced on a separate line, and inflight catering built to any one of them leaves the kitchen sealed rather than assembled at the last stage.

Flight catering airside delivery at Moscow (VKO)
Moscow's aerodrome reference code covers wide-body operations across two runways of 3500 metres, which puts scheduled, charter and government traffic on the same stands rather than splitting the field by aircraft size. A delegation movement is a documentation problem before it is a food problem, and a peak wave of scheduled departures is a capacity problem that the same stands have to absorb without a separate queue.
Airline catering at Moscow moves from our flight kitchen to the stand by hi-loader, lifted straight to galley door height rather than set down on the ramp first. In-flight catering at UUWW and aviation catering at VKO run off the one ops desk, with ramp access held on our own credentials so the convoy does not wait on a third party's clearance to cross the apron.
One coordinator carries the rotation from sealed cart to signed handover, and that same commitment applies whether the uplift is inflight catering in Russia for a scheduled carrier or airport catering in Moscow for a single ad hoc movement.
VVIP catering alongside scheduled flights at VKO
01
Government and state flight catering at Moscow
Behind the wide-body stands at UUWW, a delegation movement is planned as a documentation exercise before it is a menu one: government flight catering for state visits and head of state movements runs on a protocol file held per passenger. Security-cleared staff seal the uplift before it leaves the kitchen, and the dedicated terminal handling this traffic keeps that chain of custody unbroken from cart to cabin.

02
Royal and VVIP flight catering at UUWW
A wide-body aerodrome reference code, meaning private airliners such as BBJ, ACJ and other wide-body VIP types board on the same stands as scheduled traffic without a separate ramp. Royal flight catering at this station holds to a written household specification kept on file between movements, with royal household dietary sets and halal VIP requirements produced against that same record on every repeat rotation.

03
Charter and ACMI flight catering at VKO
Our teams load a full three-cabin uplift on Moscow's wide-body stands for ACMI and wet-lease operators, group movements and special missions, counting every tray against the loading sheet before the cart moves. Charter flight catering in Russia covers a multi-leg rotation the same way it covers a single sector, and charter flight catering in Moscow is staged in the order the galleys are laid out rather than assembled after boarding starts.

04
Airline and ad hoc catering at Moscow
Across the wide-body stands at UUWW, a scheduled carrier running this station as an outstation gets ad hoc airline catering built to the same specification as its home base, with outstation catering covering the gap when a rotation lands without local support. Diversion catering and technical stop catering are worked off the same duty roster, AOG included, and crew meals in Russia travel on the identical cold chain across a multi-leg rotation.

Private jet and FBO catering at UUWW
Two runways of 3500 metres carry business aviation traffic onto the same field as scheduled and charter movements, with a dedicated branch delivering private jet catering at Moscow to the FBOs on the field and the GA terminal. Business aviation catering and business jet catering move on the identical cold chain and paperwork as an airline uplift, with FBO catering sealed before it leaves our kitchen.

“We needed delegation flight catering at Moscow (VKO/UUWW) for a protocol-sensitive flight. Communication was discreet, changes were handled calmly, and the delivery was coordinated exactly within the agreed window. Reliable, discreet, and easy to work with. That made the turnaround easier for both the flight crew and the team on the ground.”

Aiden — Ramp Operations Manager
“I handled the cabin order for a flight from Moscow (VKO/UUWW) and needed wide body VIP aircraft catering. They followed our plating notes closely and made the final setup easy for the cabin crew. A very smooth experience for the cabin team. That made the turnaround easier for both the flight crew and the team on the ground.”
★★★★★Private jet operator
Sabrina — VIP Operations Controller
“Our charter program used the service at Moscow (VKO/UUWW) for hajj flight catering. The team handled the volume well and kept the boxes clearly identified by flight and service. Good coordination for a high-volume movement. Responses were quick whenever we had a question, which helped us keep the flight on schedule.”

Inflight catering FAQ for Moscow (VKO)
Diversion catering and ramp questions at UUWW
What operations gets asked every week about Moscow.
Ask operations directly →Where in advance of departure does Moscow need a catering order, and how late can the specification change?
The loading sheet filed against each rotation records both cut-off points, and it is what governs how far in advance an order must be placed before the kitchen locks the specification. Last minute airline catering is still worked where the lead time allows it, but the written record is what confirms whether a late change can be absorbed before sealing.
What protocol governs VIP, VVIP and government flights at Moscow Vnukovo?
We run VIP flight catering and government flight catering under the same protocol file used for every repeat movement, with security-cleared staff and a sealed uplift closing the chain before departure. That protocol is fixed per household or per delegation, not improvised per flight.
How is airline catering cost worked out at VKO?
VKO uplifts are quoted against cabin count, specification and the loading window booked for the rotation, since no fixed price list is published for airline catering cost here. The desk returns a quotation once those three points are confirmed.
When are halal, kosher and IATA special meal codes produced for a flight through UUWW?
Once a passenger's requirement is logged against the booking, halal, kosher and the full SPML range are produced on a separate line and sealed apart from the main run. That documentation travels with the tray set rather than being confirmed verbally on the day.
Can airline catering be delivered airside at Moscow?
The hi-loader lifted to galley door height is how every uplift reaches the aircraft here, with airside delivery held on our own ramp access rather than a handover at the foot of the stand.
