Three of us. All ex VIP cabin crew.

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.

The local tableCooked so it travels

Inflight catering with the flavours of Daqing (DQA)

Heilongjiang eats for the cold. A private jet menu out of Daqing leans on what the province actually grows and cooks: braised pork with potato, sour cabbage stew, river fish from the Songhua basin, and dumplings folded by hand. Local specialities travel well when they are packed for the galley you really have. The inflight menu keeps stews in sealed pots that finish in the oven, and cold dishes stay chilled until the cabin crew plate them. Private jet food from Heilongjiang is hearty by nature, so we balance it with lighter plates for the guests who want them. The private jet platters here lean on smoked sausage, pickled vegetables and cold-cut sliced beef; the gourmet inflight meals are the braises and the fish. Private jet snacks are roasted sunflower seeds, dried fruit and mild cheese, which keep in a drawer all flight.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Daqing Sartu Airport (ZYDQ)

The oil industry built Daqing, and the traffic at Sartu follows it: engineers, delegations, executives who fly in and out on a tight rotation. Private jet catering for those flights is built around Heilongjiang produce and a galley that rarely has more than one oven. Business aviation catering and executive jet catering both run through one order, and cabin crew meals are packed on request, apart from the guest trays.

Business aviationOur core

VIP flight and private jet catering at Daqing Sartu Airport (ZYDQ)

Business jet catering at Daqing usually follows an oilfield schedule: a short rotation, a small cabin, and a galley with one oven. Corporate jet catering here favours a menu that holds in the cold, with VIP flight catering plates assembled from Heilongjiang produce. Charter flight catering is written with the headcount and the seat plan, luxury inflight catering leans on river fish and mushrooms in season, and a private jet chef can write a bespoke menu around the guests' preferences.

State & royalDiscretion, protocol

Inflight catering for government and royal flights at Daqing Sartu Airport

When a delegation flies to Daqing, the menu is approved by the protocol team before cooking. Government flight catering and head of state flight catering carry the same discipline: sealed packaging, a record of who handled what, and a handover at the FBO. VIP aviation catering and state visit aircraft catering are quiet, careful, and never advertised.

Special meals

Special meals for every diet: in-flight catering at Daqing Sartu Airport

Dietary work in Daqing starts in the kitchen, because local dishes lean on soy, peanut oil, sesame and wheat dumplings, which is where allergens hide. Kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free, allergen free and kids meals are special meals planned as a procedure: a separate board, sealed containers, and a seat-number label for each guest. Halal sourcing is common in northern China and easier to arrange than kosher, which we plan with more care and a sealed tray.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meals and cockpit meals in Daqing (ZYDQ)

On a Daqing rotation, crew meals are a request, ordered and invoiced like the rest of the trip. Flight crew meals are packed for a galley with one oven, pilot meals are boxed for eating with one hand, and cockpit meals stay apart from guest trays. Crew catering here may mean a hot noodle dish in the cold months, crew meal boxes are labelled CREW, different meals for pilots are available when policy asks, and cabin crew meals follow the same pattern.

DeliveryEvery FBO

Airport catering delivered to the FBO at Daqing Sartu Airport (ZYDQ)

FBO catering at Daqing Sartu means a handover at the general aviation terminal or beside the aircraft, agreed with your handling agent. Catering delivery to the FBO follows your slot, and ground handling catering for a winter apron includes insulated carriers. Handling agent catering is the contact point for access, door and timing, so no truck moves before the apron is clear.

Galley-door delivery and aviation catering at Daqing Sartu Airport (DQA)

Aircraft size decides how a Daqing order reaches the cabin. A light or midsize jet takes the cart or the boxes straight through the door, while a larger cabin may need a high loader to bring the load up. We plan galley catering for the galley the aircraft actually has, and aircraft provisioning for Daqing is agreed through your handling agent. Airside catering delivery follows the apron rules of the airport, so we confirm access and the door before the trucks move. Winter adds insulated carriers on the apron.

About the airportZYDQ / DQA

About Daqing Sartu Airport (ZYDQ): aviation catering and general aviation

Daqing Sartu is a regional airport serving an oilfield city in Heilongjiang, with limited airline traffic and a steady stream of business and charter flights. Airport catering here is planned around the small apron, general aviation access and the winter calendar. As a quiet business aviation hub for the province, it suits a precise order.

Business aviation

Daqing Sartu works as a business aviation hub for oilfield visitors and provincial delegations. Inflight catering, in-flight catering for charters, and aviation catering for executive jets all share the same desk, as does business aviation catering. Executive jet catering, diplomatic flight catering, crew meals and cabin crew meals follow the same handling process, each adapted to the aircraft and the visitors.

Customs & food import

China controls food entering the country strictly, and Daqing is no exception. Meat, dairy and fresh produce from abroad are generally not cleared, which is why our catering here is cooked locally. For this business aviation hub, general aviation, FBO services and ground handling services at Sartu all operate through the handling agent, who confirms what customs expects.

★★★★★CHARTER

“Rather than an elaborate service at ZYDQ, our 11 guests wanted smoked salmon bagels and sliced fruit, organised sensibly around different crew meal preferences. I asked The Galley Girls for the starters in shallow trays, with garnishes supplied separately for plating on board. Keeping the side dishes aside until service helped preserve the presentation while we dealt with the boarding tasks. I want an inflight catering company to understand catering handover, and this order gave us a useful starting point.”

★★★★☆GOVERNMENT

“Despite an evening cabin service, we wanted the 6 guests at DQA to enjoy prawn salad and small fruit plates without a complicated cabin service. The confirmation from The Galley Girls showed the sauces clearly enough for us to check the planned service quantities. We also checked the canapés before approval, which helped avoid a second round of questions later in the preparation. When comparing inflight catering companies, I would look closely at packing arrangement after this experience.”

★★★★★LIGHT JET

“I wanted avocado toast components and breakfast fruit for 3 guests at Daqing Sartu Airport, packed sensibly for a cabin team dealing with a small galley worktop. Our handling contact received the order details from The Galley Girls, including how the sandwiches had been grouped. My main takeaway from this in-flight catering services order was the practical approach to meal organisation. The cabin team could match the starters to the request before moving on to the remaining departure tasks.”

Daqing in five questionsAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost for a flight into Daqing when customs and food-import rules apply?+

Cost starts from what you choose. For a Daqing arrival, customs and food-import rules decide what may stay on board from abroad, and what we buy fresh locally instead. Keeping the order local avoids a declaration problem and keeps the invoice straightforward; private jet catering is priced per menu, with Wagyu-style premium cuts costing more than local pork and cabbage.

What is the lead time for a return-leg order placed from Daqing?+

If the return leg is ordered from Daqing, we already hold your galley notes, seat plan and dietary cards. That makes the return a repeat rather than a new order. Kosher and allergen free requests need the most care, so mention them at the start; everything else, including late additions, is handled.

What about customs when the aircraft repositions empty from Daqing?+

Empty legs are the simplest customs case: no passengers, no trays, sometimes only cockpit meals. The handling agent at Daqing Sartu confirms what must be declared, and sealed items from the previous leg are listed rather than guessed. We keep an empty-cabin order small.

Can you bring food from outside when a delegation or government flight lands at Daqing?+

Bringing your own food on a government flight into Daqing means going through customs and, usually, the protocol office first. Local preparation avoids both. We keep a discreet team on the order and deliver at the FBO with nothing opened beforehand.

Is catering part of a charter into Daqing, and does the departure slot change that?+

Charter prices stop at the aircraft. Catering is commanded, packed and invoiced separately, then handed over at the FBO on your slot. If the turnaround is short, the galley is loaded in one pass, with cold items already chilled.
