Aviation catering — Amman, Jordan
Airside airline catering, VIP & private jet catering at Amman (OJAM / ADJ)
ADJ (IATA) · OJAM (ICAO)
A wide-body aerodrome reference code at Amman means the ramp here is built for large-cabin loading, not narrow-body improvisation. AERO GOURMET runs inflight catering and in-flight catering from a kitchen positioned for hi-loader boarding straight to galley height, so uplift moves airside without a stand-side transfer, and inflight catering stays on one cold chain from seal to door.

Aircraft catering handover at the galley door, Amman airport
The catering uplift from our kitchen to the aircraft at Amman runs through one measured sequence rather than an estimate. Ramp access lets the convoy reach the wide-body stand directly, and the hi-loader carries the sealed cart to galley height without a stand-side transfer breaking the chain. Every stage between the apron and the cabin door is logged against the same clock we use on every rotation here.
Between our kitchen and the stand at OJAM sit screening, escort and apron traffic, and the galley catering plan is built to absorb the worst of them rather than hope around them. The convoy is the variable that can slip; the catering uplift itself is sealed before it leaves the kitchen and does not open again until the loader reaches the galley door. Temperatures are logged at sealing and again at handover, and a signature closes the load at the aircraft, so the chain of custody is continuous from cart to cabin. Nothing on the ramp changes that sequence, whatever the traffic happens to be doing that day.
One seal at the kitchen, one signature at the aircraft, nothing in between left to chance.
Flight kitchen and crew meals for OJAM / ADJ
Pilot meals and cleared production crews for Amman (ADJ)
Airport catering at Amman is provisioned from a facility built to run hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol cell under one roof, so a full rotation moves through a single kitchen rather than several subcontracted lines. HACCP governs every stage that output passes through before it is sealed for the ramp. Airport catering in Amman and airport catering in Jordan both draw on the same flight kitchen at ADJ, which keeps the cold chain unbroken between the larder and the loader.
The team that handles government flight catering here is the same named crew on every rotation, not a rotating pool assigned on the day. Security clearance is held on file for each member, access to the ramp is controlled by badge, and household service standards are trained rather than assumed. That continuity is what a protocol officer checks first, and it is the reason the same crew signs the handover sheet movement after movement.
VIP flight catering menus for Amman departures
Royal flight catering standards per cabin at Amman, Jordan
Menus at Amman are written to the cabin, the mission and the season rather than issued as one fixed set, so a First cabin plate and a crew tray leave the same kitchen on different specifications. Inflight catering in Jordan draws where it can on regional produce, working dairy, orchard fruit and fresh fish into the seasonal frame rather than a single fixed list. VIP flight menus and charter flight menus both run from the same production line, adjusted for cabin count and mission length rather than rebuilt from scratch. Allergen, halal, kosher and medical sets are documented per passenger and per cabin, labelled before they leave the kitchen so nothing is identified for the first time at the galley door.
First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Amman are plated to a written specification, with à-la-carte and caviar service available on request rather than fixed to one set menu. VIP flight catering here is filed against the standing order, so the presentation is repeated exactly on the next rotation, not reinterpreted.
Business cabins
Business cabins at ADJ run multi-choice hot service in galley-ready tray sets sized to the fitted galley, so nothing is reworked stand-side. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately to the roster, with crew meals in Jordan following the same production line as the passenger cabins.
Protocol & dietary
Protocol and dietary requirements at OJAM are documented per passenger before the tray is built, 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 sealed before it leaves the kitchen, and inflight catering in Amman is logged against that documentation at handover.

Flight catering airside delivery at OJAM
Amman handles scheduled, charter and government traffic across a single wide-body reference code, which means a delegation movement and a peak charter wave are both worked against the same documentation rather than two separate systems. That traffic mix turns a state visit into a paperwork question and a group charter into a capacity question, and the kitchen plans for both on the same roster.
The uplift reaches the aircraft by hi-loader straight to galley height, routed from our kitchen through airside delivery rather than a stand-side handoff, with our own crew on the ramp for the whole sequence. Aviation catering in Amman and inflight catering at ADJ both run off one ops desk, so a diversion or a late change is answered without rerouting the request through a second line.
One coordinator carries the rotation from kitchen seal to signed handover, and airline catering in Jordan, in-flight catering at Amman and airport catering in Amman are all logged against that same signed chain of custody.

The 3275 m runway at Amman takes the wide-body movements that head of state and delegation flights typically use, and government flight catering here is built around that traffic. Protocol is documented per passenger, security-cleared staff handle the uplift, and the load is sealed before it leaves the kitchen for a dedicated terminal where one is assigned.

Royal and VVIP flight catering at OJAM
Private airliners, including BBJ, ACJ and wide-body VIP configurations, board at Amman on the same runway length that clears scheduled wide-body traffic. Royal flight catering here holds household standards across repeat rotations, from a written specification kept on file between movements, with halal and other household dietary requirements produced on request.

03
Charter and ACMI flight catering at ADJ
On the wide-body stand at Amman, the 3275 m runway clears the ACMI and wet-lease aircraft that group movements and special missions typically fly. Charter flight catering is loaded as a full three-cabin uplift counted against the loading sheet, and charter flight catering staged for a multi-leg rotation follows the same galley sequence on every leg.

04
Airline and ad hoc catering at Amman
The wide-body reference code held at this station lets carriers running Amman as an outstation draw on ad hoc airline catering without pre-booking a full production cycle. Outstation catering, diversion catering and technical stop catering run off the same duty roster, with AOG covered on the same terms across a multi-leg rotation.

05
Private jet and FBO catering at OJAM
Sequencing a business aviation load around the same wide-body reference code that governs the main ramp means private jet catering at Amman is staged to the GA terminal and the FBOs on the field on a fixed slot rather than an open window. FBO catering here runs the same cold chain and paperwork as an airline uplift, and business aviation catering and business jet catering both draw on that one kitchen.

“I asked for aviation catering packaging at Amman (ADJ/OJAM) 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. From an operational point of view, the service was easy to manage and required very little follow-up.”
★★★★★Scheduled airline
Hana — Aviation Operations Executive
“We had an outstation requirement at Amman (ADJ/OJAM) and the coordination was very smooth. The uplift was organized around our revised departure and reached the aircraft without delaying the turn. Good support for a changing flight schedule. That made the turnaround easier for both the flight crew and the team on the ground.”
★★★★★Scheduled airline
Khalid — Operations Control Officer
“I ordered private jet menu for our departure from Amman (ADJ/OJAM) and was very happy with the service. The team was responsive to a late change and the final order still arrived looking polished. Exactly what I want from a private aviation caterer. The order was complete on arrival and easy for us to check before closing the doors.”
