Catering to your aircraft in Ta Noun.
Dara Sakor sits at 60 feet on the Koh Kong coast, where the dry season sets the rhythm of every departure and the afternoon squalls of the wet season decide the rest. We pack Gulf of Thailand seafood and Khmer dishes for your galley and hand them over at the aircraft.
We know the galley, the diet card and the 5 a.m. re-plate — because we lived them. So we built the caterer we always wished we could call.
Fourteen years on VIP and head-of-state cabins. Can plate for twelve in a G650 galley and still land it hot.
The one who reads every diet card twice. If it says no cross-contact, it means no cross-contact.
Answers at 5 a.m. when the leg moved overnight. Same-day swaps are her love language.
Koh Kong province is mangrove, river mouth and open Gulf, and the private jet menu follows the water. The inflight menu at Dara Sakor leans on Kampot pepper crab, which travels well when the sauce is packed apart, and on grilled squid and tiger prawns from the coast. Private jet food here is lemongrass, galangal, palm sugar and fresh lime, so a dish arrives bright rather than heavy. Local specialities from Koh Kong, such as fish amok steamed in banana leaf, can be portioned per passenger and re-plated from the drawer.
Seafood is the first thing Ta Noun offers: crab, prawns, squid and sea bass from the Gulf of Thailand. A private jet menu for Koh Kong province built on those catches stays light, which suits a cabin that is often flying on to a longer sector. Private jet food from here also means Khmer staples: fish amok, beef lok lak with a pepper-lime dip, mango and green papaya salads. These local specialities are packed chilled or oven-ready, sauces apart, so the inflight menu holds up in a small galley.
Tail, pax, diets, timing. One message — no portal, no quote form. Answered at any hour, by a flight attendant.
Leak-proof boxes, marked by guest and restriction, with reheating times written on the lid.
Two minutes out of the drawer. Whatever you ordered for the crew comes in the same delivery, and one clean invoice follows.
The runway at VDDS is long enough for a heavy jet, and that is where private jet catering at Dara Sakor begins: a galley that may be empty on arrival, a crew that needs to eat, and a coastline that gives you crab, prawns and pepper. Inflight catering here is built around what Koh Kong province actually grows and lands. In-flight catering for a diplomatic flight catering brief or a quiet executive jet catering trip follows the same logic, and cabin crew meals are packed alongside, never mixed with passenger trays.
Business jet catering at Dara Sakor often serves a corporate jet catering brief for a coastal resort stay, where passengers arrive hungry for local food. VIP flight catering and charter flight catering follow the same pattern: a private jet chef builds a bespoke menu around Gulf seafood, and luxury inflight catering means a plate that is Cambodian, not generic.
For a head of state flight catering request at DSY, the protocol office approves first and the kitchen cooks second. Government flight catering, VIP aviation catering and state visit aircraft catering share the same discipline: sealed trays, a named contact, no surprises at the aircraft.
Halal sits as the exception at Dara Sakor rather than the baseline, so we treat it as a procedure: sourcing confirmed, a separate board, a sealed box. Kosher, vegan, gluten free and allergen free special meals follow the same route. Fish sauce, shrimp paste and peanut sit in most Khmer cooking, so we name them on the card. Kids meals and other special meals are packed and marked per seat.
A sheet per guest. Separate boards, separate boxes.
Sealed, certificate in the same box.
Their own menu, nothing to cut at altitude.
Vegan, low-carb, light — composed, never compromised.
On a rotation that lands at Ta Noun and flies on, the crew rarely gets a proper stop, so crew meals are ordered with the trip and invoiced like the rest. Flight crew meals and pilot meals are packed in separate crew meal boxes, labelled CREW, with different meals for pilots when the operator asks for it. Cockpit meals are built to be eaten one-handed: rice, grilled chicken, a salad that does not leak. Crew catering is on request only, never assumed.
Ground handling catering at VDDS runs through the FBO or the handling agent. We organise catering delivery to the general aviation terminal, confirm access, and make the handover at the aircraft. FBO catering and handling agent catering are the same job, done in the same order.
Larger aircraft at VDDS may need a high loader, and the type decides the door height and the galley layout. Galley catering is packed to the aircraft's ovens and drawers, and airside catering delivery is coordinated with the handling agent so the carts arrive at the right door. Aircraft provisioning for wide-bodies follows the same plan, with cart counts agreed against your galley.

Whichever terminal you park at, handover is at the aircraft, on your slot.

Airport catering at Ta Noun serves a quiet airfield that was built long before it filled, and the general aviation traffic that does come through uses the terminal and relies on ground handling services arranged ahead of the aircraft. Catering here follows the tail rather than a timetable. A business aviation hub it is not yet, which is why a clear brief matters.
Dara Sakor is a business aviation hub still taking shape, and the requests that reach it are executive jet catering and diplomatic flight catering tied to resort and government visits. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering all follow the aircraft here, while business aviation catering stays small and varied. Cabin crew meals and crew meals travel in their own boxes, and FBO services and ground handling services at the terminal take the handover. General aviation arrivals are rare enough that every brief is read twice.
Cambodia restricts the import of meat, dairy and fresh produce, and customs can inspect food carried in on an aircraft. Ground handling services will tell you the same: ordering in-country avoids the question, because the food is made locally and arrives sealed.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“One detail shaped our order at Dara Sakor International Airport: limited fridge space, alongside a request for a cheese board and savoury canapés for 10 passengers. We changed the quantities of side dishes, and The Galley Girls reflected the request in the final packing list. The note about the desserts was easy to spot, and we could brief the rest of the team quickly. Our brief for business jet catering was met with a sensible plan for galley preparation.”
“Timing and organisation mattered at VDDS, where our order of grilled salmon with a lemon dressing for 12 people involved several individual meal preferences. We described our serving sequence to The Galley Girls and asked for the fruit plates to be packed accordingly. My main takeaway from this business aviation catering order was the practical approach to written menu details. Our colleague could take over the breakfast portions without asking where every component had been placed during preparation.”
“An order of vegetable tartlets and a dessert selection for 5 people at DSY had to be organised around a revised passenger count. This experience of jet catering gave us a useful reference for managing crew briefing on another departure. Our request to The Galley Girls focused on the canapés, with enough detail to distinguish passenger portions from additional provisions. There was enough information about the side dishes to brief the crew without making assumptions about what had been ordered.”
The season shapes it. When the sea is calm, seafood-led menus from Koh Kong are straightforward; when it is not, we steer to poultry, beef and vegetable dishes. Each version is priced per menu and per cover.
For DSY we ask what the aircraft carries before we ask anything else. A small galley changes the menu more than the calendar does. Last-minute orders are handled.
Cambodian import rules are strict on animal products. Provisioning from here removes the question: the food is made in-country and delivered airside.
If you carry your own, check meat and dairy restrictions first. Otherwise let us use Kampot pepper and Gulf seafood; it travels well and clears nothing at customs.
No, it is a separate order with its own invoice. A tight turnaround at DSY means the food is packed ready for the drawer; a longer one allows plated service. Send the slot.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
