Aviation catering — Deadman's Cay, Bahamas
Private jet catering, VIP flight catering and airline catering at Deadman's Cay (MYLD / LGI)
LGI (IATA) · MYLD (ICAO)
A single 1,219 m runway and a narrow-body reference code set the boarding pattern here: one movement worked at a time, sealed and dispatched before the next arrives. AERO GOURMET runs inflight catering, aviation catering and in-flight catering at this station by hi-loader to galley height, holding a wide-body specification on the uplift wherever the mission calls for it.

Aviation catering from sealed cart to galley door at Deadman's Cay (LGI)
Deadman's Cay works to a single narrow-body reference code, and every catering uplift here is planned against that constraint rather than around it. Ramp access is held on our own clearance from the kitchen door to the aircraft, so the cart never waits at a shared gate behind other ground traffic. On the apron, the sealed load moves straight from vehicle to galley door, with no intermediate stop between the two.

Between our kitchen and the stand at Deadman's Cay sit screening, an escort across the apron, and whatever traffic the single runway is running that hour; we build the catering uplift plan against the worst of those, not the average. The galley catering load is sealed before the vehicle leaves the kitchen door, and the seal is checked again at the aircraft rather than assumed intact. Chain of custody runs on paper the whole way: driver, escort and the crew member who takes delivery of the galley each sign the same sheet.
One seal, one signature, from our kitchen door to the galley at Deadman's Cay.
Crew meals from the flight kitchen serving Deadman's Cay, Bahamas

Pilot meals and cleared production crews for Deadman's Cay (LGI)
The flight kitchen behind Deadman's Cay runs hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line under one roof, built to HACCP standard end to end. That single-site model matters more at a narrow-body station than at a hub: with one runway and one reference code governing the field, there is no second facility to fall back on if a rotation shifts. Airport catering at LGI and airport catering in Bahamas are both provisioned from this same flight kitchen, holding the cold chain intact from production to the cart.
The team assigned to government flight catering at this station is the same named crew on every rotation, not a rotating pool drawn from wherever staff are free that day. Each member carries a security clearance on file, sits on the access list for the protocol movements they work, and is trained to the household standards a royal or state uplift is held to. That continuity is what a protocol officer checks first, before a single tray is discussed.
Kosher inflight catering and dietary sets at Deadman's Cay
Royal flight catering standards per cabin at Deadman's Cay, Bahamas
Menus at Deadman's Cay are written to the cabin and the mission rather than to a single fixed offer, drawing on Bahamian produce for fish, fruit and dairy elements wherever the specification allows local sourcing. Cycles are built by season, reworked as ingredients change, and matched to whether the rotation is a scheduled service, a charter or a VIP movement. Inflight catering here holds documented allergen, halal, kosher and medical sets against a written specification for every passenger, labelled and tracked by cabin. That documentation is filed before the flight, not assembled after a query.

First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at MYLD receive VIP flight catering plated to a written specification, with à-la-carte and caviar service available on request rather than fixed to one set menu. Presentation is filed against the standing order for each account, so a repeat rotation is served to the same plate each time.

Business cabins
Business cabins at Deadman's Cay take a multi-choice hot service built to cabin specification, boxed in oven-ready formats sized to the galley fitted to the aircraft. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately against the roster, so the flight deck and the cabin crew each receive the set built for their duty.

Protocol & dietary
Protocol and dietary requirements at LGI are documented per passenger, covering halal and kosher sets alongside the full range of IATA special meal codes. Inflight catering for household, religious and medical requirements is produced on a separate line from the main cycle and sealed before it leaves that line, keeping the two streams apart from production onward.

Flight catering airside delivery at MYLD
Deadman's Cay works off a single 1,219 m runway under a narrow-body reference code, which means catering here is planned as one movement at a time rather than as parallel banks of wide-body traffic; a delegation or a charter is worked as a documentation and timing question before it is a volume one. Airline catering at MYLD and airport catering at Deadman's Cay both run stand by stand rather than gate by gate, with the sealed cart routed from the kitchen to the aircraft under our own escort.
Uplift reaches the aircraft from our kitchen by cart, staged for the loading crew and handed up at the door rather than left on the tarmac for someone else to carry. Inflight catering in Bahamas and in-flight catering in Bahamas both run off the same duty roster and the same paperwork, whatever the operator or the mission on that rotation. Aviation catering at LGI is coordinated through one desk regardless of segment.
On every rotation here we commit to one coordinator, sealed carts and a signed handover at the aircraft.

“Our ops team used the service at Deadman's Cay (LGI/MYLD) as an airline catering partner. They understood airline operations and kept communication short, clear, and useful. A good partner to have when the usual supplier is not available. Updates were timely and the final delivery matched the confirmation we had from operations.”

“We booked private jet catering in Deadman's Cay for a flight operating through LGI/MYLD. The menu selection was good and all special requests were clearly identified. Good local support for a VIP operation. From an operational point of view, the service was easy to manage and required very little follow-up.”

The team confirmed the dietary details carefully and there was no confusion when the order arrived. That attention to detail makes a big difference onboard. That made the turnaround easier for both the flight crew and the team on the ground.”
