Airline Catering at Indianapolis

Where Commercial and International Service Run Side by Side

Air Fayre operates commercial and cargo catering at Indianapolis International Airport, serving five carriers from a single facility. IND is one of the first catering facilities in North America to implement collision avoidance technology

Commercial and Cargo Catering for Wherever You Fly

Indianapolis runs commercial in-flight catering and cargo crew meals from the same facility, on the same platform, under the same compliance infrastructure, for domestic and international carriers alike.

That range is rare in airline catering, and it runs here every day. The carriers at IND bring different galley configurations, different scheduling rhythms, and different compliance requirements. Scorpio MRP & Logistics manages all of it from one platform instance, and the chill-chain documentation covers both domestic and international standards without operational conflict.

Commercial In-Flight Catering at Indianapolis

We provision commercial departures at Indianapolis International Airport across all service classes: long-haul domestic, international, and regional services. Our proprietary platform, Scorpio, manages flight-by-flight demand forecasting, galley configuration, and provisioning timing against actual flight data. The complete chill-chain sequence operates at IND with the same documented compliance standards applied at every Air Fayre location.

Airlines evaluating commercial catering at Indianapolis are evaluating the same process, the same platform, and the same documentation standards behind our flagship Los Angeles operation. United Airlines is the anchor commercial relationship at IND.

Cargo Crew Meal Catering

We serve international cargo carriers from the Indianapolis location, with crew meal provisioning built for international crew compositions, diverse dietary requirements, and irregular scheduling driven by global freight demand. Cargolux, one of the world's largest all-cargo airlines, is our anchor cargo relationship at IND.

Expansion Capacity

Our Indianapolis location runs commercial and cargo operations from a single facility, on a single platform. Airlines adding IND routes or evaluating catering options in the Midwest can engage an established operation with the infrastructure to support additional relationships across both service types.

What Our Operational Range Brings You

An airline adding Indianapolis routes enters a facility that already handles operational complexity across service types. Commercial provisioning runs alongside cargo crew meals. Domestic compliance runs alongside international documentation. The same ramp teams, the same platform, the same quality infrastructure serve every carrier.

That depth also made IND the right location for our first collision avoidance deployment. In late 2025, we prototyped the CAS system here under full commercial flight conditions. Operators who participated preferred the sensor-guided approach over traditional ground-guide procedures, and those results validated the technology for fleet deployment at LAX in Q4 2026.

An established multi-service operation, a technology investment that compounds over the contract term, and the infrastructure to support additional carrier relationships.

Indianapolis International Airport

Indianapolis International Airport serves as the primary commercial and cargo aviation location for Indiana and the surrounding Midwest region. Twelve airlines operate scheduled service at IND, including American Airlines, United, Delta, Southwest, and international carriers. The airport's central geographic position gives it a natural role as a Midwest gateway for both domestic and international routes.

On the cargo side, Indianapolis ranks as a significant Midwest freight location. International cargo airlines use Indianapolis as a U.S. gateway, and the airport's central geographic position, roughly equidistant from both coasts, gives it a natural advantage as a freight logistics location for air and ground freight.

Proven Across Commercial and Cargo

Our Indianapolis location runs commercial and cargo catering from one facility with demonstrated performance across both service types. The infrastructure supports additional airline relationships across either service type.
