Aviation catering — Kayseri, Turkey
Airline catering, VIP and private jet catering at Kayseri (LTAU / ASR)
ASR (IATA) · LTAU (ICAO)
A wide-body reference code at this station forces a sequence: hold the loading order, hold the galley height, hold the seal, however many stands are pressed into use at once. AERO GOURMET runs inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering from a hi-loader that boards at galley height, so the uplift covers wide-body cabins airside without a single tray touching the ground.

Aviation catering timeline, order to boarding, at Kayseri
Aviation catering from sealed cart to galley door at Kayseri, Turkey
Ramp access at this station is not a courtesy line item, it is the sequence a wide-body reference code imposes on every catering uplift. Apron movements are timed against the same clearance that governs the loading order, so a sealed cart moves only when the stand is called. That single rule is what keeps the window measured rather than guessed at Kayseri.
Between the flight kitchen and the stand at Kayseri sit screening, an escort and apron traffic sharing the same wide-body reference code as the loading plan. We plan the catering uplift against the worst of that traffic, not the best of it, holding the convoy to a fixed route rather than the fastest one available. Temperature is logged at the seal and again at galley catering handover, with a chain of custody carried on the docket the whole way, and a signature closes the load at the galley door.
One seal at the kitchen, one signature at the door, nothing loose in between.
Flight kitchen and crew meals for Kayseri airport
Pilot meals and cleared production crews for LTAU / ASR
The flight kitchen that provisions LTAU runs hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line under one roof, held to the wide-body reference code that governs the stand it feeds. Airport catering built this way means tray sets and passenger meal boxes leave production already matched to the cabin plan rather than sorted at the ramp. HACCP governs every stage of that production, and airport catering in Kayseri is planned so the cold chain never breaks between the larder and the cart.
The team that handles government flight catering at Kayseri is the same named crew on every rotation, never rotated in from elsewhere for a single movement. Security clearance is on file for each of them, held against an access list rather than issued ad hoc on the day. They work to a written household standard, and the paperwork that travels with a sealed uplift is checked against that list before the cart ever moves.
VIP flight catering and dietary sets at LTAU
VVIP catering to a written specification at Kayseri
Menus at this station are written to the cabin and the mission first, then adjusted for season, because a wide-body reference code puts First, Business and main cabin on the same rotation and the same clock. Inflight catering here draws on regional produce where the season allows it, described in general terms rather than as a fixed dish, so a VIP flight menu and a charter flight menu can share a kitchen without sharing a specification. Every set is planned against a standing cycle rather than invented per order, which keeps the tray standard constant even as the choices change. Allergen, halal, kosher and medical requirements are documented per passenger and per cabin, and carried on the docket rather than assumed at boarding.
First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Kayseri are plated to a written specification rather than to a generic tray, with caviar and à-la-carte service available on request against the standing order. VIP flight catering here is filed and repeated exactly, movement after movement, so the presentation never depends on who happens to be on shift.
Business cabins
Business cabins at LTAU run multi-choice hot service in oven-ready formats sized to the fitted galley, moved as tray sets rather than plated individually. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately to the roster, so galley loading and crew catering never compete for the same cart.
Protocol & dietary
Protocol and dietary requirements at ASR are documented per passenger, covering halal and kosher sets and the full range of IATA special meal codes rather than a fixed shortlist. Inflight catering built this way is produced on a separate line and sealed before it leaves that line, so a religious or medical set never shares a tray with the standard cabin run.

Flight catering airside delivery at Kayseri (ASR)
Kayseri carries scheduled, charter and government traffic across a single wide-body stand, so a delegation, a peak departure wave and a repeat charter rotation are never separated by capacity, only by documentation. Airline catering at LTAU is planned around that one stand rather than around a bank of gates, which makes the loading order the actual constraint, not the volume.
The uplift moves from our flight kitchen to the stand under ground handling arranged for the movement, sealed before it leaves the kitchen and carried by escort across the apron. Inflight catering and in-flight catering at Kayseri run off airside delivery rather than a kerb drop, and aviation catering at ASR is planned stand by stand, with ramp access held on our own clearance rather than borrowed on the day.
On every rotation we commit one coordinator, sealed carts and a signed handover at the galley door, so airport catering in Turkey carries the same accountable chain whether the movement is a scheduled service or a single-aircraft charter.
Commercial aviation catering and VVIP missions at LTAU / ASR
01
Government and state flight catering at ASR
Our kitchen builds every government flight catering order around a 3000 m runway that takes the aircraft type a delegation actually flies, so the protocol file is set before the movement lands. State visits and official delegations move through Kayseri with security-cleared staff, a documented passenger-by-passenger protocol record, and an uplift sealed before it leaves the kitchen for the dedicated terminal where one is used.

02
Royal and VVIP flight catering at Kayseri
A 3000 m runway carries the private airliners this segment actually flies into LTAU, from a BBJ to a full wide-body VVIP configuration, without a length constraint forcing a technical stop elsewhere. Royal flight catering here is held to a written household specification kept on file between movements, with halal and other household dietary requirements produced against it on request rather than improvised per rotation.

03
Charter and ACMI flight catering at LTAU
A wide-body aircraft on an ACMI or wet-lease rotation boards here because the reference code held at Kayseri matches its cabin configuration stand for stand. Charter flight catering at Kayseri covers group movements and special missions with a full three-cabin uplift, counted against the loading sheet and staged in the order the galleys are laid out, and charter flight catering in Kayseri holds that same order across every leg of the rotation.

Airline and ad hoc catering at ASR
A 3000 m runway, and it is what lets a wide-body operator route ad hoc airline catering through this station without downgrading the aircraft type. Carriers running Kayseri as an outstation draw on outstation catering, diversion catering and technical stop catering off one duty roster, AOG covered on the same call, across a multi-leg rotation without a change of specification.

05
Private jet and FBO catering at Kayseri
On the same field that holds the wide-body reference code governing the main stand, the GA terminal and the FBOs draw on a separate private-jet branch of the same kitchen. Private jet catering at LTAU is delivered to the FBOs on the field and the GA terminal, business aviation catering and business jet catering carried on the same cold chain and the same paperwork as an airline uplift, with FBO catering booked through the same desk.

“Our team used the service at Kayseri (ASR/LTAU) for state visit aircraft catering with strict timing and handling requirements. Communication was discreet, changes were handled calmly, and the delivery was coordinated exactly within the agreed window. We would trust the team again for a similar movement. The order was complete on arrival and easy for us to check before closing the doors.”
★★★★★Charter operator
Grace — Ad Hoc Operations Manager
“I handled the cabin order for a flight from Kayseri (ASR/LTAU) and needed VIP airliner catering. The order was organized by service and passenger request, which saved us time before departure. A very smooth experience for the cabin team. The final handover was simple and there was nothing for the crew to correct before departure.”
★★★★★Charter operator
Elif — Cargo Duty Officer
“We arranged umrah flight catering for a group movement through Kayseri (ASR/LTAU). Despite the large order, communication stayed simple and final quantities were confirmed without confusion. A dependable choice for group charter operations. The order was complete on arrival and easy for us to check before closing the doors.”

Aircraft catering questions at Kayseri (ASR)
Technical stop catering questions at LTAU
What operations gets asked every week about Kayseri.
Ask operations directly →When are halal, kosher and special meal codes produced for a flight through ASR?
When the order is confirmed, halal, kosher and the full set of IATA SPML codes are booked against the passenger list and produced on a separate line, documented per seat before the cart is sealed.
How much does airline catering cost at LTAU?
LTAU has no published price list, because airline catering cost here depends on cabin count, specification and the loading window booked for the rotation; our desk returns a quotation once those three are confirmed.
Which FBOs in Kayseri receive private jet catering?
The sealed cart and the hi-loader route from our kitchen reach every FBO on the field and the GA terminal, so private jet catering and FBO catering are delivered on the same route regardless of which operator handles the aircraft.
What protocol governs VIP, VVIP and government flights at Kayseri Airport?
We run VIP flight catering, VVIP movements and government flight catering under one written protocol, with security-cleared staff, a documented passenger list and a sealed uplift closed before it leaves the kitchen.
