Aviation catering — Shreveport, United States
VIP flight catering, airline catering and private jet catering at Shreveport (KSHV / SHV)
SHV (IATA) · KSHV (ICAO)
A wide-body reference code at Shreveport means a rotation is sequenced around the hi-loader before anything else is planned, since the galley door, not the kerb, sets the schedule. AERO GOURMET runs inflight catering, in-flight catering and uplift at KSHV that way: hi-loader to galley height, airside, on scheduled, charter, VIP and government movements through Shreveport, SHV.

On the apron — Shreveport
Aviation catering with ramp access at SHV
Everything below is what we measure at this station — distances, windows, who signs what.
Inflight catering order window at KSHV
Aviation catering from sealed cart to galley door at Shreveport airport
The loading window at Shreveport starts at the seal on the cart, not at the truck leaving the kitchen, because the count that matters is what is checked at the galley door. Ramp access is held on our own clearance rather than negotiated stand by stand, so the apron crossing is timed the same way on every rotation. That discipline is what a catering uplift at SHV is actually measured against once the aircraft is on the wide-body stand.
Between our kitchen and the wide-body stand at Shreveport sit screening, an escort across the apron, and the ordinary traffic of a working ramp, and none of it is left to chance on a sealed run. We plan the galley catering uplift against the worst of that sequence rather than the average of it, because a delay at screening cannot become a delay at the galley door. Every cart is sealed at departure from the kitchen and the seal is checked again at handover, with temperatures logged at both points so the chain of custody is never assumed, only recorded, cart by cart, rotation by rotation.
One seal, one signature, one galley door: the chain never changes hands unrecorded.
Crew meals from the kitchen serving KSHV / SHV
Pilot meals and cleared production crews for Shreveport (SHV)
The flight kitchen that provisions Shreveport runs hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line under one roof, built to run to HACCP standard on every batch that leaves it. That single-site setup is what lets airport catering at SHV hold one cold chain from the larder to the cart rather than splitting it across sites. Airport catering in United States terms depends on exactly that kind of consolidation, and it is what the flight kitchen at Shreveport is built around.
The team that handles government flight catering at Shreveport is the same named crew every rotation, not a rotating pool assigned on the day. Security clearance is on file for each of them, they sit on the access list for the ramp, and they are trained to royal household standards on the paperwork that travels with a sealed uplift. That continuity is what catering at KSHV is built to guarantee on repeat state and household movements.
VIP flight catering and dietary sets at Shreveport
VVIP catering written per mission at Shreveport, United States
Menus at Shreveport are written to the cabin and the mission before they are written to anything else, adjusted for a diversion, a technical stop or a standing rotation without changing the tray standard underneath. Local sourcing draws on the produce of the Louisiana region — dairy, fish and orchard fruit worked into the seasonal cycle rather than fixed on a printed card. Every set carries documented allergen, halal, kosher and medical requirements, labelled per passenger and per cabin before it is sealed. Inflight catering at Shreveport runs on that same discipline whether the load is a single tray or a full three-cabin uplift.
First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Shreveport are plated to a written specification rather than a fixed menu, with caviar and à-la-carte service available on request against the standing order on file. VIP flight catering in United States terms means the presentation is checked against that filed specification before the cart is sealed, not improvised at the galley.
Business cabins
Business cabins at KSHV run multi-choice hot service in oven-ready formats sized to the galley fitted to the aircraft, boxed as tray sets rather than plated by hand. Crew meals at Shreveport are boxed the same way, with cabin crew meals and pilot meals kept separate on the roster so neither set is mixed with the passenger load.
Protocol & dietary
Protocol and dietary work at KSHV covers household, religious and medical requirements documented per passenger, with halal and kosher sets produced on a separate line and the full range of IATA special meal codes covered against that documentation. Inflight catering at KSHV seals each of those sets before it leaves the line, so nothing travels unmarked to the aircraft.

Flight catering airside delivery at KSHV
Shreveport takes scheduled, charter and government traffic across its wide-body reference code, and that mix sets three different catering problems on the same ramp: a delegation is a documentation problem, a charter peak is a capacity problem, and a repeat rotation is a repetition problem that has to close the same way every time. Airline catering in Shreveport is planned against whichever of those three is on the stand that day, not against a single fixed model.
The uplift reaches the aircraft from our flight kitchen by sealed cart, escorted across the apron and boarded by hi-loader to galley height rather than left at the foot of the aircraft. In-flight catering at SHV and aviation catering in United States both run through that same route, with our own coordinator on the ramp for every load.
What we commit to on this station is one coordinator per rotation, sealed carts checked at both ends, and a signed handover at the galley door, and inflight catering in United States terms is judged on exactly that signature, rotation by rotation.
Royal flight catering and scheduled uplifts at Shreveport (SHV)
01
Government and state flight catering at SHV
Our crews work the same 2544 m runway for a state movement as for a scheduled arrival, which is what lets government flight catering at Shreveport run on the same ramp without a separate procedure. Delegations and official movements travel with a protocol file documented per passenger, security-cleared staff on the load, and the uplift sealed before it leaves the kitchen — the standard a head of state aircraft is worked to here.

02
Royal and VVIP flight catering at Shreveport
A 2544 m runway takes the private airliners this segment moves in, BBJ, ACJ and wide-body VIP among them, without a separate stand procedure. Royal flight catering at SHV holds household standards across repeat rotations, drawn from a written specification kept on file between movements, with halal and other household requirements produced on request rather than improvised on the day for VVIP or royal household work.

Charter and ACMI flight catering at KSHV
A wide-body reference code is what lets a charter airliner, an ACMI aircraft or a wet-lease movement board here on the same terms as scheduled traffic. Charter flight catering in Shreveport covers group movements and special missions with a full three-cabin uplift, counted against the loading sheet and staged in the order the galleys open, the same discipline charter flight catering at KSHV holds on every multi-leg rotation.

04
Airline and ad hoc catering at SHV
A 2544 m runway keeps the field open to scheduled wide-body traffic, which is why outstation and ad hoc airline catering both run off the same duty roster here rather than a seasonal one. Carriers using SHV as an outstation get diversion catering and technical stop catering worked into that roster, AOG included, across a multi-leg rotation, with crew meals boxed separately from the passenger load at Shreveport.

Private jet and FBO catering at Shreveport
On the same wide-body reference code that clears larger traffic, the GA terminal and the FBOs on the field draw from the branch of our operation built for business aviation. Private jet catering at Shreveport reaches the ramp handler and the GA terminal on the same cold chain and the same paperwork as an airline uplift, business aviation catering and business jet catering included, with FBO catering delivered on request.

Airline catering services FAQ for Shreveport
Technical stop catering questions at Shreveport
What operations gets asked every week about Shreveport.
Ask operations directly →How far in advance do you need halal, kosher or special meal codes confirmed for Shreveport?
Special meals are documented per passenger against the standing SPML set on file, so halal, kosher and other special meals are confirmed as part of the order rather than as a late addition.
Is airline catering delivered airside at Shreveport Regional Airport?
Our own coordinator escorts every sealed cart from the kitchen to the stand, and airline catering here is boarded by hi-loader to galley height rather than left at the foot of the aircraft, with airside delivery held on our own ramp clearance.
At which point does private jet catering reach the FBOs on the field at SHV?
The sealing step at our kitchen comes first, and from there private jet catering is delivered to the GA terminal and the FBOs on the field on the same cold chain as an airline uplift, with FBO catering handled the same way for every operator.
Whose protocol governs VIP flight catering and government flight catering at KSHV?
Across state visits, royal household movements and VVIP charters, the same protocol file travels with the uplift: documented per passenger, sealed before it leaves the kitchen, and signed off at the galley door.
