Catering to your aircraft in Toli Toli-Celebes Island.
At 17 ft above the Celebes Sea, Sultan Bantilan is a warm, quiet field where a sealed lid matters more than a long menu. We cook for your galley and hand over through your FBO.
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.
Central Sulawesi gives a private jet menu a coastal backbone. Toli Toli looks out on the Celebes Sea, so the inflight menu leans on grilled fish, tuna, snapper and prawns, the private jet food that travels best when it is cooked firm and packed with the sauce apart. Local specialities such as ikan bakar with sambal dabu-dabu, sambal roa and cakalang fufu show up as private jet platters: cold smoked fish with rice paper rolls, tropical fruit boards with mango, papaya and pineapple, and sealed rice boxes for crew. Gourmet inflight meals from Sulawesi need one decision up front: chilli on the plate or in a pot. Private jet snacks stay simple and dry: roasted cashews, banana chips, kerupuk and dark chocolate that will not melt in a warm cabin.
Sulawesi Tengah (Central Sulawesi) is a fish and coconut kitchen, and our private jet menu for Toli Toli follows it. For the inflight menu we cook the day's catch firmly so it survives the drawer: grilled snapper, tuna steaks, prawns in turmeric, with sambal in its own pot. Private jet food here also means rice, clove-scented broths and fruit from the coast. Local specialities are plated as private jet platters, cold or oven-finished, and gourmet inflight meals are re-plated by your crew. Private jet snacks follow the climate: cashews, banana chips, sesame crackers and wrapped sweets rather than anything cream-based.
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.
Sultan Bantilan sits at 17 ft on the northern coast of Central Sulawesi, a small field where humid air does as much to a tray as the schedule does. Private jet catering here is planned around heat, sealed lids and a galley that has to hold everything until the cabin door opens. For crews who also want inflight catering that arrives labelled by seat, in-flight catering for the cabin and cabin crew meals for the flight deck are ordered together and invoiced as one request. Aviation catering at WAFL is quiet work; business aviation catering and executive jet catering both start from the tail and the headcount, and diplomatic flight catering follows protocol set before cooking.
For a charter at WAFL, business jet catering starts with the aircraft type and the passenger list. A private jet chef writes a bespoke menu around the coast: corporate jet catering with prawns and tuna, VIP flight catering with a fruit course, luxury inflight catering with sauces in separate pots, and charter flight catering that matches your sector.
For official visits to WAFL, government flight catering begins with the delegation list and dietary rules. Head of state flight catering stays discreet and documented, VIP aviation catering uses unmarked trays, and state visit aircraft catering is confirmed with the protocol officer before the order is final.
On a coastal Sulawesi menu the allergens to watch are shellfish, fish sauce, peanuts in sambal and coconut milk in sauces. Special meals for Toli Toli are written as a procedure: kosher and halal are cooked and sealed apart, vegan and gluten free dishes are boxed on their own board, allergen free trays carry a seat number, and kids meals are kept mild and unsauced. Tell us the restriction, and we plan the kitchen around it.
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 short turnaround at WAFL, crew meals are what the flight deck actually eats. We pack flight crew meals apart from the guest service, pilot meals can follow the operator's policy, cockpit meals are simple and one-handed, crew catering is a separate line on your order, crew meal boxes stay unlabelled except for seat, and different meals for pilots are available when needed.
Your handling agent is the person who opens the door at WAFL, so the order is built around them. FBO catering for Sultan Bantilan is sealed and labelled, then taken to the general aviation terminal, where catering delivery to the FBO ends and the agent walks it to the apron. Ground handling catering runs on your slot; tell us if the aircraft moves to another stand and the handling agent catering follows.
Sultan Bantilan handles light and mid-size business aircraft, so galley catering is usually a single case or two carried to the door rather than a pallet. Airside catering delivery is arranged with your handling agent, who opens the access. Aircraft provisioning is confirmed against your galley layout, so trays, ice and boxes match what the aircraft can hold. Larger types are discussed before the slot.

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

WAFL sits at 17 ft in Sulawesi Tengah, a low coastal airport used by regional and business aircraft. Airport catering for the field is arranged locally, general aviation traffic comes and goes with the weather, and FBO services and ground handling services are handled through the agent.
The airport is a quiet business aviation hub on a humid coast, and inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering are planned around heat and rain. Business aviation catering for charters, executive jet catering for owners, diplomatic flight catering for official parties and cabin crew meals for the flight deck are all ordered ahead.
Indonesia restricts imported fresh meat, fish and produce, so what you carry in matters at customs. We cook and pack locally, which keeps your galley clear, and we advise on what to declare when you order.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“Between cabin checks at Sultan Bantilan Airport, I coordinated yoghurt pots and fresh berries for 6 guests and explained our concerns about a changing departure schedule. We described our serving sequence to The Galley Girls and asked for the fruit plates to be packed accordingly. I want a private jet catering company to understand storage requirements, and this order gave us a useful starting point. Our colleague could take over the salads without asking where every component had been placed during preparation.”
“Rather than an elaborate service at WAFL, our 9 guests wanted mini sandwiches and individual desserts, organised sensibly around a revised passenger count. When comparing private jet catering companies, I would look closely at written menu details after this experience. The Galley Girls suggested separate meal boxes for the sauces, and that choice worked well with our storage arrangement. I could hand the snack boxes to a colleague with a short explanation instead of unpacking the whole order.”
“Passenger preferences led us to fresh fruit and breakfast pastries at TLI; 4 portions were needed, with different crew meal preferences factored into preparation. My search for "private jet catering near me" led to a practical conversation about portion planning. With several people involved, The Galley Girls kept the crew provisions and delivery arrangements together in a concise order update. The sauces went straight to the right colleague instead of circulating between several people during the turnaround.”
For an early morning slot at Toli Toli, expect to choose between a light fruit-and-cold-fish service and a full hot meal. The first is lighter on the invoice, the second needs more kitchen work. We quote after you send the tail, seat count and times.
A small field means few moving parts. We agree with your handling agent how the order reaches the aircraft, and late changes to the menu or headcount are handled. The earlier we know the tail and slot, the more choice you have on fresh fish.
Indonesia controls food coming in from other countries, and a repositioning leg does not change that. If the cabin is empty, you may not need a full service at all; a light crew box packed locally avoids carrying imported food through customs.
Yes, you may bring your own items, but customs at the destination decides what can stay on board. A two-service leg is easier to plan from here: we box the second service cold and mark the oven step on the first.
Catering is a separate order from a private jet charter, so a count that moves from four to six is handled as a change to our order, not to your contract. Tell us the new number and we scale the menu.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
