Inside Emirates Flight Catering’s mission to serve 300,000 meals at the Dubai Airshow
When the Dubai Airshow opens its doors on 17 November, behind the incredible aircraft displays and billion-dollar deals will be an equally impressive operation: Emirates Flight Catering’s (EKFC) culinary mission to blend extraordinary scale with precision.
EKFC, the official caterer for Dubai Airshow 2025, is preparing to serve over 300,000 meals to a diverse audience of aviation and aerospace executives, government ministers, military delegations, industry professionals, guests and visitors from over 98 countries.
This feat requires building two complete central kitchens from scratch, deploying nearly 2,600 staff members, and catering to over 150 chalets, country pavilions and exhibition stands with cuisine as diverse as the global aviation and aerospace community itself.
