VTG Malaysia Airlines Half Cart Galley Trolley Aircraft Bar Cabinet ‘01 Diethelm:
$1420.25

This is an authentic Malaysia Airlines half-size aircraft galley cart, manufactured by Diethelm Industries Singapore in September 2001 and built for active airline service. Unlike many airline carts offered today with little or no documented history, this example includes its original ALOFT AeroArchitects Parts Identification Tag, documenting its removal during a 2025 cabin retrofit of aircraft VP-BTV. That provenance tag will be included with the sale.

Originally designed to transport meals and beverages at 35,000 feet, these aircraft trolleys have become iconic statement pieces for home bars, bourbon collections, offices, lofts, media rooms, aviation enthusiasts, and modern interiors. Every dent, rub mark, and scratch tells the story of thousands of flights before beginning its second life on the ground.

This cart retains its original Malaysia Airlines badge, original aircraft latching hardware, removable aluminum top tray, original manufacturer’s data plate, and adjustable interior rails. Also included is a genuine Swissair service drawer, adding another authentic piece of airline history.

Whether you’re stocking it with rare whiskey, wine, glassware, coffee equipment, vinyl records, watches, cigars, or collectibles, this cart instantly becomes the centerpiece of any room. It rolls effortlessly on its original aircraft casters and has the unmistakable industrial design that has made authentic airline half carts highly collectible around the world.
