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

The As Saffaniyah table, packed for private jet catering

Ash Sharqiyah Region eats from the Gulf, and a private jet menu for Ras Tanajib reads that way. Local specialities travel well: hammour grilled and packed with its lemon and sauce apart, spiced shrimp, machboos rice, dates and Arabic coffee served from a thermos. An inflight menu here leans on fish and rice because they hold in a galley oven and survive a hot apron. Private jet food from As Saffaniyah is generous in portion, so we plate for the headcount, not the legend. Private jet platters carry mezze and fruit, gourmet inflight meals cover the hot course, and private jet snacks are dates, nuts and small pastries that sit in a drawer all flight.

Business aviationOur core

Private jet catering for business flights from As Saffaniyah (OETN)

Business jet catering at Ras Tanajib mostly serves corporate jet catering for oil-sector and marine-industry passengers on tight schedules. VIP flight catering and charter flight catering follow the same brief: a short menu, built by a private jet chef around the cabin and the heat. Luxury inflight catering is a hammour dish plated cold or a kabsa finished in your oven, and a bespoke menu is simply the one that fits your galley.

State & royalDiscretion, protocol

Government flight and VIP aviation catering at Ras Tanajib Airport

When a delegation lands at OETN, the order starts with the protocol office, not the kitchen. Government flight catering needs confirmed names, dietary needs and the handling agent's access. Head of state flight catering and state visit aircraft catering stay quiet, and VIP aviation catering stays traceable from kitchen to cabin.

Special meals and allergen free inflight catering at Ras Tanajib Airport

Dietary work at Ras Tanajib starts with the local kitchen: Gulf cooking uses ghee, nut pastes, tahini and seafood stock freely, so allergen free means we trace each pot, not each label. Halal is the default in Saudi Arabia, kosher and vegan are built separately and sealed, and gluten free, kids meals and other special meals are packed apart from the main trays with a seat number on each.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meals & pilot meals at Ras Tanajib Airport

Waiting at OETN with duty time ticking, crew meals matter. Flight crew meals, labelled and sealed, come to the aircraft on request and are billed like any order. Pilot meals are separate and can differ between seats, crew catering covers both cabin and flight deck, and cockpit meals stay in simple crew meal boxes. Different meals for pilots is a standard request, not a special one.

Airport catering at the FBO or general aviation terminal, Ras Tanajib Airport

Your handling agent sets how food reaches the aircraft at OETN, and we follow that. FBO catering is handed over at the general aviation terminal or plane-side, catering delivery to the FBO arrives sealed and labelled, and ground handling catering stays in step with the ramp. Handling agent catering is straightforward: one contact for access, one for the order.

High loader delivery for jet catering at Ras Tanajib Airport (OETN)

Ras Tanajib handles mostly business jets and the occasional larger charter, and the aircraft type decides how the galley is loaded: door height, whether a high loader is needed, how much oven space the crew has. We plan galley catering around the real galley, send the airside catering delivery through your handling agent, and pack for aircraft provisioning that fits the drawers you actually have.

About the airportOETN

Aviation catering and business aviation at Ras Tanajib Airport (OETN)

Ras Tanajib is a coastal airport in As Saffaniyah, Ash Sharqiyah Region, used mainly by business and corporate aviation. As airport catering goes, it is a small operation with a hard working apron, and general aviation traffic sets the pace.

Business aviation

Business aviation catering at Ras Tanajib is shaped by marine and energy work: short stays, mixed crews and tight rotations. Inflight catering and in-flight catering both arrive sealed, aviation catering follows your handling agent, executive jet catering fits small cabins, diplomatic flight catering is cleared by protocol, and cabin crew meals ride separately. FBO services and ground handling services keep the ramp running, and the field works as a small business aviation hub.

Customs & food import

Saudi customs and food-import rules apply at Ras Tanajib: pork and alcohol are prohibited, and meat must be halal-certified. Ordering locally avoids the paperwork, and sealed packaging helps with any inspection on arrival or departure.

★★★★★LARGE CABIN
“Food presentation mattered to our 5 guests, but limited fridge space also had to be considered when organising a mezze selection with flatbreads at Ras Tanajib Airport. I want an inflight catering company to understand galley preparation, and this order gave us a useful starting point. The Galley Girls talked through the quantities of canapés with us before confirmation, rather than leaving us to guess the portions. The quantities of breakfast portions matched our service plan, leaving us comfortable with the order before the final briefing.”

★★★★★ROYAL FLIGHT
“Packing prawn salad and small fruit plates for 12 passengers at Ras Tanajib Airport needed careful thought, especially given a changing departure schedule. When comparing inflight catering companies, I would look closely at meal organisation after this experience. Our handling contact received the order details from The Galley Girls, including how the breakfast portions had been grouped. We could account for the sandwiches before passing the boxes to the cabin team, without a lengthy unpacking exercise.”

★★★★★LIGHT JET
“As the person coordinating prawn salad and small fruit plates for 5 passengers at OETN, I needed an arrangement that considered a family lunch request. The Galley Girls understood why we wanted the sandwiches readily accessible instead of spread across several different boxes. The fruit plates were reserved for the next stage, so the worktop stayed clear while we prepared the initial dishes. For in-flight catering services, that attention to meal organisation made the order noticeably easier to manage.”

As Saffaniyah in five questionsAsked by crews
How much does private jet catering cost for a delegation or government flight at Ras Tanajib?+

Government and delegation catering at Ras Tanajib is quoted per menu. How much does private jet catering cost depends on how many principals, how many courses, and whether fish and lamb are on it. Dates and Arabic coffee barely move the total; a full kabsa service does.

What lead time applies for a short repositioning flight with an empty cabin into Ras Tanajib?+

A positioning flight into As Saffaniyah rarely needs a full menu. Lead time is set by the handover window, and we cover late changes to the crew count. Last-minute orders are handled, day or night.

How do customs work for a return leg ordered from Ras Tanajib for the way back?+

Planning the way back from As Saffaniyah, we advise ordering what travels easily: dry snacks, sealed dates, bottled drinks. Fresh fish and dairy carry import restrictions in many countries. Customs paperwork stays with the crew.

Can you bring food into Saudi Arabia, and what are the customs and food-import rules at Ras Tanajib?+

Bringing food into Ash Sharqiyah means answering to Saudi customs: halal certification, no pork, no alcohol, fresh items at the inspector's discretion. Local catering avoids those problems and the packing follows the aircraft's galley.

Is catering part of a charter into Ras Tanajib when the crew waits on the ground?+

Catering sits separate from the charter. At OETN, waiting crews often need a second meal, so we pack boxes that fit duty time and the galley oven. Private jet charter is one contract, catering another.
