Catering to your aircraft in Okayama.
RJOB at 806 ft sees steady general aviation, heavier on summer peach season and winter oysters. Former VIP flight attendants plan the order, pack the boxes 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.
Okayama Prefecture lives off the Seto Inland Sea and the orchards behind it, and that is what a private jet menu from Okayama Momotaro should taste of. White peaches, the prefecture's best known fruit, are peak in summer and travel well chilled and whole or sliced to order; muscat grapes follow in late summer. These are the local specialities that make private jet food here different from a generic order.
Barazushi, the scattered sushi of Okayama, is built on seasonal toppings and vinegared rice, and it re-plates cleanly from a chilled box. Seto Inland Sea oysters from Hinase are winter produce, served raw on ice or grilled, and sawara (Spanish mackerel) is the regional fish of spring. Our private jet platters take these local specialities and pack them for your galley.
For hot service, demi-katsu don, a cutlet over rice in demi-glace, is an Okayama dish that finishes in the oven with the sauce kept apart. Ebi-meshi, shrimp rice, is a similar crowd-pleaser for crew and guests. A private jet menu built on these gives gourmet inflight meals that feel local, with private jet snacks such as peach jelly or kibi dango for the short sectors.
Okayama is not a heavy-import region, so the inflight menu leans on Japanese produce, which also eases paperwork. We write each private jet menu around the aircraft's galley, cooking and packing what works there. For guests wanting something familiar, an international plate sits beside the local one, all from Okayama Prefecture suppliers.

A cool plateau airfield above the Setouchi coast, RJOB runs on limited traffic and quiet slots. Private jet catering at OKJ is brief, local and simple: Okayama produce, a menu written by former VIP flight attendants, in-flight catering sized to your headcount. Aviation catering for diplomatic flights and executive jets is ordered the same way as for private charters.
Business jet catering at Okayama Momotaro is typically a short brief: guests, seat plan, one hot item. Corporate jet catering here favours Okayama produce; VIP flight catering adds a plated main. Charter flight catering is the same order, billed on its own. Luxury inflight catering follows the season, and a private jet chef writes a bespoke menu around your galley.
Government flight catering at Okayama is handled with discretion: a menu cleared by protocol, a named team, traceable ingredients. Head of state flight catering and VIP aviation catering follow the same procedure, and state visit aircraft catering is checked against the delegation's dietary and security requirements.
Okayama cooking leans on soy, fish stock and wheat, which is where allergens hide: dashi carries fish, soy sauce carries wheat, and tempura or katsu batter carries both. Kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free, allergen free, kids meals and other special meals are handled as a procedure: a separate board, a separate box, clearly marked by seat number. Tell us the restriction and the headcount; we adapt the Okayama dishes or replace them.
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.
For crew meals at RJOB, we pack flight crew meals in labelled crew meal boxes, with different meals for pilots if the operator's policy asks for it. Pilot meals and cockpit meals are designed to be eaten in a short window, and crew catering is billed on request, never assumed.
At Okayama Momotaro, FBO catering is delivered to your FBO or handling agent for the final carry to the aircraft. Catering delivery to the FBO is booked against your slot, and the general aviation terminal is where the handover starts. Ground handling catering and handling agent catering follow the same procedure on every order.
At Okayama Momotaro the type of aircraft decides how the galley catering is loaded. A light jet may take a trolley-free handover at the cabin door; a larger business jet or a VIP-configured airliner may need a high loader to reach a raised galley door. Tell us the type and the airside catering delivery is planned for the door you actually have, with aircraft provisioning matched to the galley's oven and chillers.
Mention it when you orderCertified, inspected, with cold-chain records filed against your trip.
Whichever terminal you park at, handover is at the aircraft, on your slot.

Okayama Momotaro is a regional airport on a plateau above the city of Okayama, serving domestic flights and a small but steady flow of general aviation. Airport catering here is small-scale, local and seasonal, built around the produce of Okayama Prefecture.
General aviation at Okayama is modest but real: FBO services and ground handling services are available for business aviation arrivals, and the airport works as a business aviation hub for the Setouchi area. Inflight catering and in-flight catering for executive jet catering, aviation catering and business aviation catering are all ordered through the same process, and diplomatic flight catering and cabin crew meals complete the range.
Japan's import rules are strict on fresh meat, dairy, fruit and vegetables arriving on international flights. Food for a flight leaving Okayama is not a customs issue, but items that stay on board after arrival may be inspected or discarded. We pack unopened and labelled so the crew can declare them easily.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“Menu approval at Okayama Momotaro Airport covered grilled salmon with a lemon dressing for 11 guests, leaving us to organise the service around several individual meal preferences. The Galley Girls confirmed the handover contact and identified the desserts, making the catering delivery easier for our team to track. This experience of private jet menu gave us a useful reference for managing portion planning on another departure. The sauces went straight to the right colleague instead of circulating between several people during the turnaround.”
“An order of a charcuterie board and fresh bread for 11 people at RJOB had to be organised around a changing departure schedule. I want a private jet chef to understand packing arrangement, and this order gave us a useful starting point. The Galley Girls labelled the salads in line with our brief, so the cabin team could identify the relevant portions quickly. I found the sandwiches without searching through every box, a small detail that mattered during the final cabin checks.”
“Nothing about the 5 guest order at OKJ called for excess complexity: just a seafood starter and warm vegetable sides and sensible planning for limited fridge space. The storage requirements stood out more than any sales pitch about in flight catering. The Galley Girls prepared the sandwiches for assembly in the galley, with the accompanying elements easy to locate. We could finish the starters as each guest was ready, rather than laying everything out at once.”
Private jet catering cost at Okayama is set per menu, not per tray. What moves it: produce in season, the number of hot courses, and how many dietary versions you ask for. Airside delivery goes through your handling agent, which is arranged with them, not folded into the food price.
A night departure is simply a different menu: lighter, fewer hot courses, more cold plates. We plan it around your slot, hand it to the handling agent, and confirm by phone or email.
Customs on a return leg depend entirely on the destination. We ask the route, then build a menu that survives it: cooked rather than raw, sealed rather than loose, labelled by seat.
You can, and operators sometimes do, but in Okayama the season decides departures: summer humidity and winter cold affect how food travels. Food you carry in yourself is your responsibility for safety and customs; food we pack is labelled, temperature-controlled and traceable to seat.
Not included, no matter how big the galley. A large aircraft at RJOB may have an oven, chillers and trolleys; a small one may have a drawer. Whichever it is, the catering is ordered by you and billed on its own line.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
