From a light jet to a full 777, one caterer, one standard
Aviation catering — Freeport, Bahamas
Wide-body airline catering, VIP flight catering and private jet catering at Freeport (MYGF / FPO)
FPO (IATA) · MYGF (ICAO)
A single wide-body reference code at Freeport sets what boards here: full three-cabin uplifts loaded hi-loader to galley height rather than left at the foot of the aircraft. That reach governs every rotation we run, from scheduled inflight catering through ad hoc and VVIP work, so an operator gets in-flight catering staged to the aircraft door, not to the tarmac beside it.

Aviation catering lead times and loading window at MYGF
Aircraft catering handover at the galley door, Freeport
The wide-body reference code at Freeport sets the geometry of every load: a hi-loader raised to the galley door, not a cart left on the ramp. Ramp access is held on our own clearance, so the route from the sealed kitchen cart to the aircraft stays inside one controlled apron sequence rather than crossing a public route. Each catering uplift at FPO follows that same sequence, whatever the cabin count on the schedule that day.
The convoy is the risk here, not the food. Between our kitchen and the wide-body stand at MYGF sit landside screening, an airside escort and the ordinary apron traffic of a working ramp, and every catering uplift is planned against the worst of those three rather than the average. Chain of custody runs on paper as much as on ice: the cart is sealed at the kitchen, the seal number is logged, and the galley catering handover is signed at the aircraft door by whoever receives it. Nothing moves between those two points without both signatures on file, and the temperature is read at each end, not assumed in between.
One coordinator owns the load from sealed cart to signed handover, door to door.
Crew meals from the flight kitchen serving FPO
Pilot meals and cleared production crews for FPO
Airport catering at Freeport runs from a production kitchen built to HACCP standard, with hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line held under one roof rather than split across sites. That single-site model is what makes airport catering at MYGF workable for a wide-body rotation: tray sets, passenger meal boxes and crew sets leave the same cold chain, timed to the same loading window, whatever the mix of scheduled and ad hoc work on the board that day. The flight kitchen at FPO is built to run that mix without slowing either side of it down.
The team behind government flight catering at this station is the same named crew on every rotation, not a rota drawn from a general pool. Each holds security clearance on file, sits on the access list for the stand it works, and is trained to the household standards a royal or state movement expects before the seal is broken. That continuity is what protocol officers check first, ahead of the specification itself.
Halal airline meals and special meals at Freeport (FPO)
Royal flight catering standards per cabin at MYGF
Menus at Freeport are written to the cabin and the mission rather than issued as one fixed list, drawing where the facts allow on Bahamas produce and seasonal sourcing rather than a set menu repeated flight after flight. Inflight catering here spans plated First and VVIP service through multi-choice Business trays to standard main-cabin boxes, each built to the same specification whatever the aircraft size on the day. Allergen, halal, kosher and medical requirements are documented per passenger and per cabin, not assumed from the manifest. That documentation travels sealed with the load, so the galley receives exactly what was ordered and nothing improvised against it.
First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Freeport are plated to a written specification, with caviar and à-la-carte service available on request rather than fixed to one set course. VIP flight catering here is filed against the standing order for the aircraft, so a repeat rotation receives the same presentation every time.
Business cabins
Business cabins at MYGF run on multi-choice hot service, built to oven-ready formats sized to the galley fitted to the aircraft rather than a generic tray. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately to the roster, so cockpit and cabin crew draw from sets kept apart from the passenger load.
Protocol & dietary
Protocol and dietary requirements at Freeport are documented per passenger before the cart is sealed, covering household, religious and medical requests alongside halal and kosher sets. The full range of IATA special meal codes is produced on a separate line, and inflight catering built to those codes never shares a bench with the general service.

Airport catering delivered airside at MYGF / FPO
Freeport carries a mix of scheduled, charter and government traffic across its single wide-body stand, which turns a delegation into a documentation exercise as much as a boarding one and a peak charter wave into a capacity question rather than a routing one. Airline catering, aviation catering and in-flight catering at MYGF are planned against whichever of those pressures is heavier that day, not against a fixed daily average.
The uplift travels from our kitchen to the stand under airside delivery, sealed and escorted across the apron rather than handed off at a landside gate. Airport catering at FPO is planned stand by stand, with the loading crew working from the same loading sheet the kitchen sealed the cart against, so nothing is re-checked twice or missed once.
One coordinator owns each rotation from seal to signature, and the handover is signed at the aircraft, not assumed from a manifest.
Scheduled, charter and VVIP catering at MYGF / FPO
01
Government and state flight catering at MYGF
At this wide-body stand, government flight catering covers state visits and official delegations from one sealed line rather than a shared one. The protocol file is documented per passenger, staffed by security-cleared crew, and the uplift is sealed before it leaves the kitchen, ready for a head of state movement or a smaller delegation alike.

Royal and VVIP flight catering at FPO
A single wide-body stand at this station means household movements are sequenced around whatever else is on the ramp that day, not given a stand of their own. Royal flight catering here holds to a written household specification kept on file between movements, covering private airliners such as BBJ, ACJ and wide-body VIP configurations, with halal and household dietary requests produced against that same file on request.

Charter and ACMI flight catering at Freeport
The runway at Freeport measures 3359 metres, which is what allows a fully loaded wide-body charter to depart from this ramp rather than stage light. Charter flight catering here serves ACMI and wet-lease operators, group movements and special missions, with a full three-cabin uplift counted against the loading sheet before the galleys are staged in charter flight catering order.

04
Airline and ad hoc catering at MYGF
A wide-body reference code at Freeport is what lets a scheduled widebody and an unscheduled diversion draw on the same stand without either being turned away. Ad hoc airline catering here covers outstation catering for carriers that run FPO as a stopover, diversion catering when a routing changes without warning, and technical stop catering across a multi-leg rotation, AOG included, with crew meals boxed apart from the passenger load throughout.

Private jet and FBO catering at FPO
Our crews work the same 3359 metre runway that brings wide-body charters onto this field to reach the GA terminal and the FBOs on the field with equal priority. Private jet catering at Freeport is delivered on the same cold chain and the same sealed paperwork as an airline uplift, run by our dedicated business aviation branch rather than treated as an afterthought to the wide-body schedule.

“We needed an airline catering broker at Freeport (FPO/MYGF) and the support was excellent. They coordinated locally, sent useful updates, and kept the final uplift aligned with our revised schedule. We would use the service again without hesitation. From an operational point of view, the service was easy to manage and required very little follow-up.”
★★★★★Government flight department
David — Government Charter Coordinator
“We used the service for airline catering in Freeport on a VIP rotation through FPO/MYGF. The order was confirmed quickly, delivered on time, and packed exactly as requested for the aircraft. We had a smooth experience from order to delivery. The order was complete on arrival and easy for us to check before closing the doors.”
★★★★★Charter operator
Salma — Charter Planning Manager
“For our flight from Freeport (FPO/MYGF), the cabin order included multiple special meals. All requirements were followed and the cabin crew could see immediately which meal belonged to which passenger. That attention to detail makes a big difference onboard. Responses were quick whenever we had a question, which helped us keep the flight on schedule.”

Business jet catering questions at Freeport (FPO)
Technical stop catering questions at Freeport (FPO)
What operations gets asked every week about Freeport.
Ask operations directly →Whose figures set the airline catering cost at MYGF?
For every quotation at MYGF, cost is set by cabin count, specification and the loading window booked, not by a published price list. The desk returns a written quotation once those three are confirmed.
Does Freeport take airline catering delivered airside, direct to the aircraft?
Every uplift at this station moves airside, sealed at our kitchen and boarded by hi-loader to galley height rather than staged at the foot of the steps. Airside delivery here follows one controlled apron route from kitchen door to aircraft door.
How far does private jet catering reach across the field at Freeport Airport?
Security clearance held by our loading crew covers the whole field, so FBO catering reaches every FBO on the field and the GA terminal alike. The same cold chain and paperwork travel with a business jet uplift as with an airline one.
FPO — are halal, kosher and the full range of special meal codes produced here?
Our sealed tray-set line at this station produces halal, kosher and the complete set of IATA SPML codes, documented per passenger before the cart leaves the kitchen. Each code is boxed apart from the general service run.
The loading window is what governs how far in advance MYGF needs an order placed — how far ahead is that?
There is a standing lead time for a full specification, and a shorter window for a last-minute change once the cart is already staged. The desk confirms both when a booking is opened.
At what point does VIP, VVIP and government flight catering enter the protocol chain at Freeport?
The protocol file is opened before the aircraft is even confirmed on the schedule, so security clearance and household requirements are already on file by the time the cart is sealed. VIP flight catering, government flight catering and royal movements all follow that same opening step.
