Aviation catering — Eskişehir, Turkey
VIP flight catering, airline catering and private jet catering at Eskişehir (LTBY / AOE)
AOE (IATA) · LTBY (ICAO)
The single wide-body reference code held at Eskişehir sets the plan: a hi-loader run to galley height for every rotation off the one runway here. Inflight catering and in-flight catering move on that same fixed sequence, with uplift staged airside and boarded directly onto the aircraft rather than left at its foot.

Everything below is what we measure at this station — distances, windows, who signs what.

Aviation catering from sealed cart to galley door at AOE
Ramp access governs the sequence at Eskişehir before any tray is loaded: the sealed cart clears the apron on the single runway's fixed rhythm, then meets the hi-loader at the one wide-body stand. From there the catering uplift rises directly to galley height rather than waiting at the aircraft's foot. Nothing about that order changes rotation to rotation.

Between our kitchen and the single wide-body stand at Eskişehir sit screening, an escort and whatever apron traffic the one runway is carrying that hour. We plan the galley catering uplift against the worst of that traffic rather than the average of it, because the chain of custody has to hold regardless of delay.
Temperature is logged twice: once when the cart is sealed, once at handover on the stand, so the record runs unbroken from kitchen to galley.
The signature that closes the load is the same one that opened it.
One coordinator carries the load from the kitchen seal to the aircraft signature.
Crew meals and pilot meals for LTBY / AOE departures

Cargo crew meals produced to the same standard at LTBY
The flight kitchen behind Eskişehir runs hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line under one roof, feeding the single wide-body stand this station works to. Airport catering here answers to HACCP throughout, from intake to the sealed cart, and that same standard governs every tray set regardless of which cabin it is bound for. Airport catering at AOE is planned around that one production line rather than several competing kitchens.
The team that handles government flight catering at Eskişehir is the same named crew every rotation: security clearance on file, listed on the access roster, and trained to the household standards a royal or state movement expects. Nothing about who touches a sealed uplift here changes between one rotation and the next. That continuity is what a protocol officer checks before anything else.

Royal flight catering standards per cabin at Eskişehir airport
Menus at Eskişehir are written to the cabin and to the mission rather than to a fixed cycle, adapted for a scheduled rotation, a state movement or a group charter as the manifest requires. Local sourcing draws on the orchards, dairy and grain of the surrounding region, worked into a specification rather than a fixed dish list. Inflight catering here is documented per passenger for allergen, halal, kosher and medical sets, labelled by cabin before it ever reaches the cart. Nothing on board leaves the kitchen without that paperwork attached.

First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Eskişehir: VIP flight catering plated to a written specification, with à-la-carte and caviar service available on request. Presentation is filed against the standing order rather than improvised rotation to rotation.

Business cabins
Business cabins at LTBY run multi-choice hot service to a written cabin specification, in oven-ready formats sized to the galley fitted on the aircraft. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately and matched to the roster.

Protocol & dietary
Protocol and dietary requirements at Eskişehir are documented per passenger, covering household, religious and medical sets: halal, kosher and the full range of special meal codes. Each is produced on a separate line and sealed before it leaves that line, and inflight catering here is logged against that same record.

Flight catering airside delivery at Eskişehir
Eskişehir works one wide-body stand off its single runway, a profile that rewards a fixed sequence over improvisation: a scheduled rotation, a government movement or a charter each arrives against the same reference code, and airline catering here is planned around that single point of contact rather than across several competing gates.
The uplift travels from our kitchen by sealed cart, cleared through screening and escort, then meets the hi-loader at the stand for boarding straight to galley height. Aviation catering at Eskişehir never sets a tray down at the foot of the aircraft; airport catering in Turkey follows the same rule at every field we work.
One coordinator holds the file from kitchen seal to aircraft signature, and that inflight catering commitment in Turkey does not vary with the size of the rotation.

Aviation catering FAQ for Eskişehir
Diversion catering and ramp questions at Eskişehir, Turkey
What operations gets asked every week about Eskişehir.
Ask operations directly →When do you cater VIP, VVIP and government flights at Eskişehir, and under what protocol?
When a movement is flagged VIP, VVIP or government, the file switches to protocol handling automatically: VIP flight catering and government flight catering both run on security-cleared staff and a sealed uplift, documented per passenger.
Are halal, kosher and the IATA special meal codes produced at AOE?
Our production coordinator runs halal, kosher and the full range of SPML codes on a separate line, each set sealed and logged before it joins the main load.
Where do you deliver private jet catering on the field at LTBY?
The handover record shows delivery direct to the GA terminal and the FBOs on the field, with FBO catering carried on the same paperwork as an airline uplift.
Which factors set airline catering cost at Eskişehir?
The hi-loader run, the cart routing from our kitchen and the cabin specification chosen all set the cost; we quote against the loading window rather than a fixed price list.
What does airside delivery of airline catering look like at Eskişehir?
We board directly by hi-loader to galley height rather than leaving the load at the foot of the aircraft, on the single stand this station works to.
Does AOE take a last minute airline catering order, and how far in advance should one be placed?
Every rotation is worked to its own lead time, and how far in advance an order should land depends on the cabin count and the specification; a technical stop or diversion is handled against the loading window we still hold open.
