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

What Sakon Nakhon brings to your in-flight catering (SNO)

Sakon Nakhon Province is Isan country, and the local specialities travel better than you might expect. A private jet menu built here starts with sticky rice in lidded baskets or sealed boxes, grilled chicken (gai yang) and pork neck cut for the plate, and som tam packed with the dressing in its own pot so the papaya stays crisp. Private jet food from this region is bright, herbal and chilled-friendly: laab with lime and toasted rice powder, river fish steamed in banana leaf, and mango with sticky rice when the fruit is in season.

For private jet platters, think grilled meats sliced by passenger, herb salads and seasonal tropical fruit arranged for re-plating in the galley. Gourmet inflight meals can follow the same logic: a Thai curry with the rice apart, a lemongrass broth, a clean plate of grilled fish. Private jet snacks are easy here, with dried banana, roasted nuts and cut pineapple. The inflight menu is local specialities first, then anything international your passengers prefer, written around the Sakon Nakhon Province market rather than imported.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Sakon Nakhon Airport (VTUI)

Sakon Nakhon Airport sits at 529 ft in the Isan plateau, a small northeastern Thai field where private jet catering has to be planned around what the market grows that week: sticky rice, river fish, herbs, tropical fruit. Crew handle inflight catering for light and mid-size jets here, and cabin crew meals are cooked and packed for the galley you actually have. This is aviation catering written by former VIP flight attendants, for the person who serves.

Business aviationOur core

Private jet catering for business flights from Sakon Nakhon (VTUI)

A typical business jet brief at Sakon Nakhon is a corporate jet with four to eight passengers, landing for provincial business or leaving after meetings. Business jet catering and corporate jet catering here start with the galley: a drawer, an oven, little space. Our private jet chef writes a bespoke menu around that, with VIP flight catering plated cold or finished hot, charter flight catering for visitors, and luxury inflight catering using Isan produce.

Special meals and allergen free inflight catering at Sakon Nakhon Airport

Isan cooking hides allergens in places you do not expect: fish sauce, shrimp paste, peanuts and fermented pla ra in dressings. At Sakon Nakhon we write the diet procedure around that kitchen: kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free, allergen free and kids meals are prepared on a separate board, sealed and labelled by seat number. Special meals are agreed with you before the menu is cooked, with sauces kept apart.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meals for pilots and cabin crew at Sakon Nakhon Airport (SNO)

At VTUI the turn can be short, so crew meals have to be eaten fast and clean. Flight crew meals and pilot meals are packed in crew meal boxes marked CREW, cockpit meals stay separate from the guest trays, and different meals for pilots are written in on request. Crew catering is ordered with the flight and invoiced as its own line; cabin crew meals can differ from the cockpit's.

DeliveryEvery FBO

Airport catering delivered to the FBO at Sakon Nakhon Airport (VTUI)

FBO catering at Sakon Nakhon means the order goes to the general aviation terminal and then to the aircraft. Catering delivery to the FBO is coordinated with your handling agent, and ground handling catering follows the airside rules of the field. Handling agent catering is simply the same order passed hand to hand.

High loaderLarge cabins, bizliners

High loader delivery for jet catering at Sakon Nakhon Airport (SNO)

Sakon Nakhon Airport handles light and mid-size business jets, and the aircraft type decides how galley catering is loaded. A small cabin door means boxes go up by hand, in stacks the galley can take, with airside catering delivery coordinated with your handling agent. Larger aircraft that need a high loader are confirmed in advance for aircraft provisioning at VTUI, so the right equipment is waiting at the apron.

About the airportVTUI / SNO

Aviation catering and business aviation at Sakon Nakhon Airport (SNO)

Sakon Nakhon Airport serves the province in Thailand's northeast with scheduled domestic flights and a small amount of general aviation. It is a quiet field rather than a business aviation hub, so airport catering is cooked off-site from local ingredients and brought to the apron, with FBO services and ground handling services kept simple.

Business aviation

Business aviation at Sakon Nakhon is modest: visiting executives, medical and provincial flights, the occasional charter. It is no business aviation hub, and that suits light galleys. Inflight catering and in-flight catering stay small and precise, aviation catering and business aviation catering follow the same brief, executive jet catering is cooked for a drawer and one oven, diplomatic flight catering is cleared by protocol, and cabin crew meals and crew meals are sized to the rotation.

Customs & food import

Thailand controls imported animal and plant products closely, so catering ingredients are sourced locally and imports are declared. For a business aviation hub this size the rule is simple: cooked sealed dishes travel best, and fresh produce may be refused at the next destination. Your handling agent can confirm what needs declaring.

★★★★☆LIGHT JET

“Despite a short ground stop, we wanted the 4 guests at SNO to enjoy grilled salmon with a lemon dressing without a complicated cabin service. This experience of business aviation catering gave us a useful reference for managing portion planning on another departure. We described our serving sequence to The Galley Girls and asked for the sauces to be packed accordingly. That left time to check the salads properly before the passengers were ready for the next part of the service.”

★★★★★VIP AIRLINER

“Passenger preferences led us to beef fillet with roasted potatoes at Sakon Nakhon Airport; 2 portions were needed, with a late menu amendment factored into preparation. I would discuss jet catering with them again, especially when catering handover needs careful coordination. Our handling contact received the order details from The Galley Girls, including how the desserts had been grouped. The cabin team could match the breakfast portions to the request before moving on to the remaining departure tasks.”

★★★★★LARGE CABIN

“Nothing about the 8 guest order at VTUI called for excess complexity: just a cheese board and savoury canapés and sensible planning for a short ground stop. I asked The Galley Girls to review the side dishes quantities against the passenger brief, and the proposed portions made sense. There was enough information about the canapés to brief the crew without making assumptions about what had been ordered. Our brief for VIP flight catering was met with a sensible plan for crew briefing.”

The Sakon Nakhon questionsAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost for a light jet versus a larger cabin at Sakon Nakhon?+

Ask how much private jet catering costs at Sakon Nakhon and we start with the aircraft: type, galley equipment, seats. Imported items, seasonal fruit and the number of hot dishes then shape the quote, which we agree with you before anything is cooked.

What is the lead time for private jet catering in the rainy season at Sakon Nakhon?+

Monsoon cloud at SNO can push a departure back or forward, and the catering follows it. Our lead time is shaped by the slot you give us and by what is in season; changes are absorbed, and late requests are still taken.

What do customs mean for catering on the return leg from Sakon Nakhon?+

Ordering a return leg from Sakon Nakhon means thinking about customs at the other end. Sealed, cooked dishes go through more easily than fresh produce, and we label each box so your crew can answer questions without opening the tray.

Can you bring food for a night departure or an early morning slot at Sakon Nakhon?+

Bringing food is allowed, but for a night departure you carry it through customs and keep it cold yourself. At Sakon Nakhon we usually suggest a pre-ordered meal handed to your handling agent.

Is catering part of a charter into Sakon Nakhon, and how does the handling agent get involved?+

Catering stays outside the charter at VTUI. We cook, pack and invoice it as a separate order, working with the handling agent so the boxes reach the apron without delay at the gate.
