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 Greenwood brings to your in-flight catering (YZX)

Nova Scotia gives a private jet menu at CYZX a strong local identity. Greenwood sits in the Annapolis Valley, the province's orchard country, so apples, blueberries and cider shape the sweet side of an inflight menu, while the Fundy and Atlantic coasts supply the seafood. Our private jet food for Greenwood leans on these local specialities: Digby scallops seared and packed with sauce apart, Atlantic lobster rolls assembled chilled, and Valley apple tarts re-plated cold at altitude.

Private jet platters from Nova Scotia are mostly built from cold-water seafood and orchard fruit. Smoked salmon, steamed mussels and lobster meat travel well chilled, and gourmet inflight meals such as haddock chowder or a maple-glazed salmon fillet finish in the galley oven. For private jet snacks we pack blueberry loaf, oat cakes and Valley apple slices.

The Valley is the reason a Greenwood departure tastes different from a city one. Local specialities such as Annapolis Valley apple cider, wild blueberries and Digby scallops let us write a private jet menu that feels of its place. Each dish is marked by seat number and by how it finishes in your galley, so the inflight menu reads like a service plan.

For Nova Scotia we cook with what the province actually grows and lands. Lobster, scallops and haddock for the main plates, Valley apples and blueberries for dessert, and local cheddar for the board. That is the private jet food we pack for CYZX, in drawers that suit the aircraft you send.

Special meals

Allergen free special meals and aviation catering at CFB Greenwood (CYZX)

In Nova Scotia the allergen question is mostly shellfish and tree nuts. Seafood is everywhere on the local table, so shellfish stays on its own board and in its own box, and oat and wheat flour are checked on every baked item. Kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free and allergen free special meals are cooked as a separate order, not adapted from the main one. Kids meals are packed the same way, marked by seat. For a CYZX departure, send the dietary list with the passenger count and we build the cards around it.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Flight crew meals on request at CFB Greenwood

When the crew lands at CYZX the guests eat first, and the crew eats what is left. We prefer that crew meals are ordered with the flight: flight crew meals in crew meal boxes, pilot meals that suit the cockpit, and crew catering that does not touch the passenger trays. Cockpit meals can be written as different meals for pilots, and cabin crew meals stay with the crew. Everything is invoiced on request.

DeliveryEvery FBO

FBO catering at CFB Greenwood (YZX): delivery to your aircraft

FBO catering at CYZX is handed over at the aircraft by your handling agent. Catering delivery to the FBO or the general aviation terminal is planned with the slot, and ground handling catering is coordinated so the galley is loaded without delay. Handling agent catering is arranged through the same contact.

Galley-door delivery and aviation catering at CFB Greenwood (YZX)

At CYZX the tail you send decides how the drawers get from the apron into the galley. A light jet takes drawers by hand through the main door, while a larger cabin may need a high loader at the apron. We note the door height, the galley layout and whether airside catering delivery needs a lift, then pack accordingly. Galley catering is planned around your ovens and chillers, and aircraft provisioning is confirmed with your handling agent before the slot.

About the airportCYZX / YZX

Airport catering at CFB Greenwood (CYZX)

Greenwood is a working Canadian Forces base in the Annapolis Valley, and it sees general aviation and charter traffic on request. Airport catering at CYZX is planned around access rules and the apron.

Business aviation

Business aviation at CYZX is occasional but real: charters, medevac repositioning and visiting delegations. Inflight catering and in-flight catering for these flights follow the aircraft type. Aviation catering and business aviation catering are written for the galley, executive jet catering for the tail, diplomatic flight catering for state movements, and cabin crew meals for the team on board. General aviation and FBO services here are coordinated with the base, and ground handling services are by arrangement. The airport works as a small business aviation hub for Nova Scotia's Valley.

Customs & food import

Canadian customs applies to anything entering the country. Meat, dairy and fresh produce are the usual concerns on an inbound leg, and your handling agent will confirm what must be declared at CYZX. Food we pack locally leaves freely.

★★★★★ROYAL FLIGHT

“Clear quantities were essential at CYZX: we had 3 passengers expecting roasted vegetable bowls with separate dressings and were working around different crew meal preferences. The final order confirmation stood out more than any sales pitch about charter flight catering. The Galley Girls understood why we wanted the snack boxes readily accessible instead of spread across several different boxes. That left time to check the fruit plates properly before the passengers were ready for the next part of the service.”

★★★★★GOVERNMENT

“One detail shaped our order at YZX: a small galley worktop, alongside a request for a light pasta dish with grilled vegetables for 6 passengers. For our team, the strongest part of their private jet food was how they handled galley preparation. The Galley Girls prepared the desserts 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.”

Akira D. | Government flight manager

★★★★★BUSINESS JET

“As the person coordinating mini sandwiches and individual desserts for 11 passengers at CFB Greenwood, I needed an arrangement that considered a tight boarding window. I needed the side dishes checked against the revised brief; The Galley Girls answered without sending us through another lengthy exchange. The crew provisions remained as originally requested, which was reassuring when we checked the latest version with operations. For our team, the strongest part of their private jet meals was how they handled meal organisation.”

Asked before every CYZX slotAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost at Greenwood?+

Think of the order as a set of lines: seafood plates, desserts, crew meals, snacks. The handling agent's airside access at Greenwood adds its own logistics, and we confirm it with them. The total follows what you pick, not a rate card.

What is the lead time for private jet catering at CYZX?+

Simple orders are simple at CYZX. A repositioning crew needs a cold lunch and some fruit, nothing that requires special sourcing. If you want lobster or scallops, tell us the slot first and we confirm availability; last-minute orders are handled.

Are there customs rules for inflight catering at Canadian airports like CFB Greenwood?+

With two services planned on a long leg, we pack plenty of local seafood and Valley produce at Greenwood. Outbound food leaves freely; inbound food coming back into Canada falls under the usual customs declaration.

Can you bring food on board at Greenwood?+

You can carry food on board, but mixed with our service it can complicate allergen control. A count that changes late is easier to manage with a few extra boxed portions, marked by seat number.

Is catering part of a charter into Greenwood?+

No. Whether the flight is a private jet charter or a government movement, meals are not part of the charter: for a delegation flying into CYZX, catering is ordered separately, invoiced on its own like the rest of the order, and cleared through your protocol office before anything is cooked.
