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

Local specialities from Nossa Senhora do Carmo for your inflight catering

Macau is a small territory with a layered food culture, and the private jet menu for Macau International draws on it directly. Macanese cooking, a mix of Cantonese and Portuguese traditions, gives an inflight menu with real character: African chicken, minchi, bacalhau and egg tarts all travel well when packed for a galley. Our private jet food here is cooked and packed for the aircraft, with sauce in its own pot and delicate items chilled. Local specialities such as roast goose, wonton noodles and dim sum are adapted for cabin service rather than copied from a restaurant tray. Private jet platters are built for the table at altitude, gourmet inflight meals finish in the oven or are re-plated cold, and private jet snacks, from almond biscuits to pork jerky, cover long waits on the ramp. Whatever your tail needs for the Macau leg, the menu follows the galley.

For Taipa and the rest of Macau, local specialities are the strongest part of any private jet menu. Portuguese heritage puts salt cod, chouriço and custard tarts on the same inflight menu as Cantonese roast meats and congee, and private jet food from this region is easy to make interesting. Gourmet inflight meals are packed so that crisp skin stays crisp and broths travel sealed, with sauces apart where it matters. Private jet platters of dim sum, cold cuts, fruit and cheese suit short hops across the delta, while private jet snacks keep a crew going between legs. Each dish is cooked for the galley you actually have, labelled by seat and restriction, and handed over at the aircraft.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Macau International Airport (VMMC)

Macau International sits on reclaimed land off Taipa, and most business jets arrive there for casino weekends, Grand Prix week or a hop across the Pearl River Delta. Private jet catering for MFM is packed with that rhythm in mind, for galleys that rarely have more than a small oven. Our team of former VIP flight attendants treats inflight catering as a galley job first: what travels cold, what finishes hot, what stays in its own pot. The same applies to in-flight catering for a quiet crew turn and to aviation catering for a full-cabin charter. Business aviation catering here leans on Macanese, Cantonese and Portuguese-influenced kitchens, and executive jet catering gets the same labelling by seat and by restriction. For state visitors we handle diplomatic flight catering with protocol sign-off before anything is cooked, and cabin crew meals are packed separately from guest trays.

  • Fresh and local produce

Business aviationOur core

Business jet catering at Macau International Airport for VIP flights

A typical business jet brief at VMMC involves a gaming-industry client, a mixed headcount and a galley with one small oven. Business jet catering and corporate jet catering here mean a bespoke menu written around the tail. VIP flight catering for charter flight catering requests uses a private jet chef who adapts Macanese dishes for service at altitude, and luxury inflight catering follows the same labelling by seat.

Kosher, halal, vegan and gluten free in-flight catering at Macau International Airport (MFM)

Special meals for Macau start with the local kitchen: Cantonese cooking hides shellfish, peanut oil and soy in places a menu does not show, so allergen free orders are handled by procedure, with separate boards and sealed boxes. Kosher, halal, vegan and gluten free meals are cooked for the trip, not substituted at the last step, and kids meals follow the same labelling by seat. Tell us the restriction and the seat, and the label carries it from the kitchen to your galley.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meals for pilots and cabin crew at Macau International Airport (MFM)

When a crew waits on the ground in Macau, a proper meal matters more than a snack. Crew meals, on request and invoiced as part of your order, come cold or ready for the oven. Flight crew meals and pilot meals use the same labels, crew catering is delivered to the aircraft, and cockpit meals are packed for easy eating. Crew meal boxes carry no names, only a CREW mark, and different meals for pilots can be arranged on request.

Aircraft provisioning for large cabins: airport catering at Macau International Airport

At Macau International, the aircraft type decides how the load goes on board: door height, whether a high loader is needed, and what the galley can hold. Galley catering for a large-cabin jet is packed in trolleys and boxes that match the aircraft, while a light jet may take a few drawers only. Airside catering delivery is agreed with your handling agent, and aircraft provisioning follows the galley layout, not the other way around.

About the airportVMMC / MFM

About Macau International Airport (VMMC): aviation catering and general aviation

VMMC sits at about twenty feet above sea level, with a single runway built over reclaimed land. The airport serves a territory known for gaming, hospitality and a Portuguese heritage. Airport catering is arranged through the FBO and the handling agent.

Business aviation

Macau is a business aviation hub for the Pearl River Delta, and general aviation traffic peaks around events and the Grand Prix. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering orders follow that calendar. Business aviation catering and executive jet catering are common, and diplomatic flight catering is handled through protocol. Cabin crew meals are packed apart. FBO services and ground handling services at the airport are the contacts for any airside question.

Customs & food import

Macau runs its own customs and food-import regime, separate from mainland China and from Hong Kong. Raw meat, dairy and fresh produce are the items most often examined, and cooked sealed dishes are simpler. Your handling agent confirms what applies to the flight.

★★★★★ROYAL FLIGHT
“Between cabin checks at Macau International Airport, I coordinated vegetable tartlets and a dessert selection for 2 guests and explained our concerns about a small galley worktop. I gave The Galley Girls our storage brief and asked for the crew provisions to arrive in compact food boxes. We placed the sauces in their planned storage area without first having to reorganise all the catering boxes. My search for "private jet catering near me" led to a practical conversation about portion planning.”
Martina V. | Royal family manager

★★★★★VIP AIRLINER
“Despite a tight boarding window, we wanted the 5 guests at VMMC to enjoy vegetarian wraps and colourful salads without a complicated cabin service. The Galley Girls updated the starters in the written order and sent back a confirmation that clearly showed our amendments. The fruit plates remained as originally requested, which was reassuring when we checked the latest version with operations. Our brief for private jet catering menu was met with a sensible plan for packing arrangement.”
Manuel V. | Chief cabin officer
BBJ
★★★★★CHARTER
“Clear quantities were essential at MFM: we had 3 passengers expecting roasted chicken and seasonal vegetables and were working around a late menu amendment. I asked The Galley Girls to review the side dishes quantities against the passenger brief, and the proposed portions made sense. For private aviation catering, that attention to portion planning made the order noticeably easier to manage. The quantities of sandwiches matched our service plan, leaving us comfortable with the order before the final briefing.”

What crews ask before Nossa Senhora do CarmoAsked by crews
How much does private jet catering cost for a flight into Macau International?+

The weather window at Macau shifts a lot between typhoon season and the dry months, and this affects what people order: lighter chilled plates in summer, hot broths and roasts in winter. Roast goose with its skin kept apart costs differently from a bacalhau salad. Private jet catering for MFM is priced per menu once we know the seat count.

What is the lead time for catering at Macau International?+

Airside access through the handling agent is the key step here. Once it is clear, a Macau order is straightforward, even with a late change to the menu. Last-minute orders are handled, and we are reachable 24/7 by phone and email, so lead time rarely becomes the problem on this terminal.

Are there customs rules for catering brought into Macau?+

Macau applies its own import rules to food, separate from mainland China, and they apply to what leaves the aircraft. A late change in passenger numbers means a different quantity of meals, and the labels should still match. Cooked, sealed dishes travel easier than raw ingredients, which is why customs questions end up shaping the menu.

Can you bring food on a private jet into Macau yourself?+

Yes, within the customs rules. If duty hours are long and the aircraft waits in Macau, a prepared crew meal is easier than shopping around. We pack them for the oven or for cold service, and for pilots we can do separate dishes, so can you bring food becomes a question of what the galley holds.

Is catering part of a charter into Macau?+

No. Catering is not part of the charter: in Macau the customs side of food means it needs its own list, its own labels and its own invoice. The charter operator can pass the details to us, or you can order directly.
