Airline catering, VIP flight catering and private jet catering at Fort Myers (KRSW / RSW)
RSW (IATA) · KRSW (ICAO)
Our kitchen boards the wide-body reference code held at Fort Myers (KRSW), staging multi-class uplifts for scheduled, charter, VIP, government and private jet flights. We run inflight catering and in-flight catering off one ops desk, sealed at the kitchen and hi-loaded to galley height for the three cabins boarding at RSW.

Aircraft catering lead times at Fort Myers
Aviation catering from sealed cart to galley door at KRSW / RSW
The loading window at Fort Myers runs from the sealed cart at our kitchen to the galley door, with ramp access held on our own credentials rather than a delivery left at the aircraft steps. Every catering uplift is timed against the single wide-body stand this field carries, so a multi-class rotation is loaded in the sequence the galleys are laid out. That sequence is logged, not guessed, at KRSW.
Between our kitchen and the stand at Fort Myers sit screening, escort and apron traffic, and we plan the catering uplift against the worst of them rather than the average. Galley catering only leaves the kitchen once the cart is sealed, and the seal is checked again at the aircraft before the chain of custody passes to the loading crew. Temperatures are logged at both ends, and the handover carries a signature, not an estimate.
One coordinator carries the seal from our kitchen to the signature at the galley door.
Crew meals from the flight kitchen serving RSW
Pilot meals and cleared production crews for KRSW / RSW
Airport catering at KRSW is provisioned from a kitchen built to run hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line under a single roof, rather than several sites feeding the ramp separately. That structure is what lets airport catering here hold one HACCP standard across a scheduled rotation and a same-day VIP request without switching kitchens. Everything that reaches the aircraft at Fort Myers starts on that one cold chain and moves as a single sealed batch.
The team that handles government flight catering at Fort Myers is the same named crew on every rotation, carrying a security clearance on file and a place on the airside access list rather than a rotating roster. They are trained to royal household standards as well as airline ones, so a state movement and a scheduled turnaround are worked to the same discipline. The chain of custody they sign travels with the sealed uplift from our kitchen to the stand.
Halal airline meals and special meals at KRSW
Commercial aviation catering written per cabin at Fort Myers
Inflight catering at Fort Myers is written to the cabin, the mission and the season rather than to a single fixed book. Where local produce is called for, sourcing draws on Florida's dairy, citrus and Gulf seafood, worked into a specification rather than a fixed dish. Every tray set is built to the cabin it boards, First, Business or main cabin, with the same production standard behind each. Allergen, halal, kosher and medical sets are documented per passenger and per cabin before the cart is sealed.
First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at KRSW are plated to a written specification, with caviar and à-la-carte service available on request rather than fixed to a set menu. VIP flight catering here is filed against the standing order, so the same presentation repeats on every rotation.
Business cabins
Business cabins at RSW run 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 boarded in the same tray sets, boxed to the roster rather than guessed at.
Protocol & dietary
Protocol and dietary requirements at Fort Myers are documented per passenger, covering household, religious and medical needs alongside halal and kosher sets and the full range of IATA special meal codes. Inflight catering for these sets is produced on a separate line and sealed before it leaves the kitchen.

Flight catering airside delivery at Fort Myers (RSW)
Fort Myers carries a single wide-body-capable runway of 3,658 metres, which sets one reference code for every rotation this station handles rather than a mix of standards across multiple strips. That single-runway profile means a peak wave and a diverted wide-body compete for the same stand, so catering here is sequenced by loading sheet rather than by arrival order.
Airline catering and aviation catering both move off the same route from our kitchen to the ramp, boarded by hi-loader to galley height rather than delivered to the foot of the aircraft. Airport catering in the United States runs to that same method at this field, with airside delivery timed to the stand rather than to the terminal kerb. Inflight catering and in-flight catering in Fort Myers share one ops desk, so a scheduled turnaround and an ad hoc diversion are worked from the same board.
One coordinator, sealed carts and a signed handover apply to every load at KRSW, whatever the mission.
Scheduled, charter and VVIP catering at KRSW / RSW
01
Government and state flight catering at RSW
A wide-body aircraft moving a head of state delegation boards at Fort Myers on the same reference code that clears a scheduled wide-body, which is what makes government flight catering here a matter of protocol rather than of airframe size. The file travels documented per passenger, with security-cleared staff and the uplift sealed before it leaves the kitchen for the stand.

Royal and VVIP flight catering at Fort Myers
Across the 3,658 metres of runway at Fort Myers, private airliners move alongside scheduled wide-body traffic without a separate strip set aside for them. Royal flight catering here is held to a written household specification kept on file between movements, covering BBJ, ACJ and wide-body VIP configurations, with halal and other household dietary requirements produced on request.
Royal & VVIP flights →
03
Charter and ACMI flight catering at KRSW
A single 3,658-metre runway means a charter rotation and a scheduled wide-body are sequenced onto the same stand rather than spread across separate strips, so timing carries the load plan as much as the menu does. Charter flight catering at Fort Myers serves ACMI and wet-lease operators, group movements and special missions with a full three-cabin uplift, and charter flight catering here is counted against the loading sheet before the cart ever reaches the ramp.

04
Airline and ad hoc catering at RSW
The wide-body reference code held at Fort Myers governs every stand this station puts to use, which is what lets ad hoc airline catering move onto a rotation with the same tray standard as a scheduled one. Outstation catering, diversion catering and technical stop catering all run off one duty roster here, AOG included, across a multi-leg rotation, with crew meals in the United States boxed to the same roster as the tray sets.

05
Private jet and FBO catering at Fort Myers
Fort Myers holds 3,658 metres of runway, long enough that business aviation movements share the same wide-body-capable ramp as scheduled and charter traffic rather than a separate strip. Private jet catering at RSW reaches the FBOs on the field and the GA terminal on the same cold chain and paperwork as an airline uplift, and FBO catering here runs off the same kitchen as our business aviation catering and business jet catering lines.

“We requested tray set catering airline at Fort Myers (RSW/KRSW) and the packaging worked very well onboard. Presentation stayed good while the setup remained practical for a fast aircraft turnaround. The crew appreciated how easy it was to load. From an operational point of view, the service was easy to manage and required very little follow-up.”

Clara — Station Operations Supervisor
“Our operation through Fort Myers (RSW/KRSW) included a tech stop request at short notice. The uplift was organized around our revised departure and reached the aircraft without delaying the turn. A very useful service for ad hoc flying. The final handover was simple and there was nothing for the crew to correct before departure.”

Antonio — Private Jet Operations Manager
“We used the team for business jet catering at Fort Myers (RSW/KRSW) on a VIP trip. They followed my notes closely, kept me updated, and delivered at the time agreed with the FBO. A very good experience from a flight attendant perspective. The order was complete on arrival and easy for us to check before closing the doors.”

Airline catering services FAQ for KRSW
Technical stop catering questions at KRSW
What operations gets asked every week about Fort Myers.
Ask operations directly →Do you take last minute airline catering changes at KRSW?
Yes, by holding the specification open until close to departure and confirming the lead time an order needs once the rotation and cabin count are known.
How far ahead does Fort Myers handle VIP flight catering and government flight catering requests?
Government flight catering and VIP flight catering both run to a fixed protocol, so the file is opened as soon as the movement is confirmed and the uplift is built against that protocol rather than a generic order.
Fort Myers Airport, do you deliver private jet catering to the FBOs and the GA terminal on the field?
The hi-loader and ramp vehicles that carry a wide-body uplift also serve the FBOs on the field and the GA terminal, so FBO catering here runs on the same cold chain as an airline load.
RSW's dietary sets, are halal, kosher and SPML codes produced on site?
There are dedicated lines for halal, kosher and the full range of IATA special meal codes, each documented per passenger before it is sealed for boarding.
