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 Port-Menier for your inflight catering

Port-Menier is Anticosti Island, and the private jet menu here follows the island: venison from the whitetail herd, Gulf of St. Lawrence seafood, wild berries and the bakery habits of Quebec. We build the inflight menu around local specialities that travel well in a galley, so private jet food for a hunting party looks nothing like a corporate lunch. Quebec produce such as maple, smoked fish and regional cheeses shows up as private jet platters, gourmet inflight meals and private jet snacks, each noted for how it is finished on board.

For Quebec flights, the private jet menu for Port-Menier leans on what Anticosti and the Gulf supply: deer, salmon, shellfish, cold-water fish, berries and maple. Local specialities are packed as private jet platters for cabin sharing, gourmet inflight meals for the main service and private jet snacks for the leg home. Private jet food from this region keeps its character on the apron: sauces travel apart, cold items stay chilled and the inflight menu is explained to whoever re-plates.

Special meals and allergen free inflight catering at Port-Menier Airport

Special meals at Port-Menier start from a short island supply chain, so the work is in knowing where allergens hide: fish stocks, nut oils in baking, wheat in sauces. Kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free and allergen free meals are packed in sealed, labelled trays kept apart from guest trays, and kids meals are marked by seat number. We build each one as a procedure with the crew, not a line on a label.

High loader and aircraft provisioning: aviation catering at Port-Menier Airport

Aircraft at Port-Menier are typically light and midsize jets and turboprops, so galley catering is packed to the aircraft's own drawers and ovens. Airside catering delivery goes to the apron at CYPN through the FBO or your handling agent, and aircraft provisioning is sized to what that galley can actually hold. If a larger aircraft comes in, tell us the type and the loading arrangement is set from that.

About the airportCYPN / YPN

Airport catering at Port-Menier Airport (CYPN)

Port-Menier Airport is a small airfield on Anticosti Island in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, at 167 ft. Airport catering here serves general aviation and charter traffic, with FBO services and ground handling services scaled to a quiet island field.

Business aviation

Business aviation hub is too big a word for Port-Menier, but the airport matters in hunting and fishing season. Inflight catering and in-flight catering for those flights is practical; aviation catering, business aviation catering and executive jet catering are packed for light jets, and diplomatic flight catering and cabin crew meals are handled when needed.

Customs & food import

Canadian rules on food entering the country apply to inbound international flights, so declare what is aboard. For Port-Menier, we source and seal food in Canada, which keeps special meals clear of foreign-product questions.

★★★★★BUSINESS JET
“Packing yoghurt pots and fresh berries for 7 passengers at Port-Menier Airport needed careful thought, especially given a family lunch request. The Galley Girls confirmed the handover contact and identified the breakfast portions, making the catering delivery easier for our team to track. The cabin team could match the fruit plates to the request before moving on to the remaining departure tasks. For VIP flight catering, that attention to catering handover made the order noticeably easier to manage.”
Lucas X. | VIP flight attendant

★★★★☆VIP AIRLINER
“What impressed me at CYPN was how a request for a selection of petits fours and sandwiches was handled despite a tight boarding window. I asked The Galley Girls to review the breakfast portions quantities against the passenger brief, and the proposed portions made sense. It was useful to see the desserts listed separately when checking how much space the complete order would require. For charter flight catering, that attention to cabin service sequence made the order noticeably easier to manage.”
Sora R. | Chief cabin officer — BBJ

★★★★★BUSINESS JET
“For 9 passengers departing from YPN, the agreed menu was chicken skewers with a couscous salad; our main consideration was a revised passenger count. The Galley Girls prepared the fruit plates for assembly in the galley, with the accompanying elements easy to locate. This experience of private jet food gave us a useful reference for managing final order confirmation on another departure. It made a difference to have the main courses ready without cluttering the galley work area during preparation.”

Before you order at CYPNAsked by crews
How much does private jet catering cost for a Port-Menier flight when the passenger count changes at the last minute?+

Prices depend on what you choose and how many eat it. On Anticosti, extra guests who join a hunting party are easiest to cover with shareable platters, which cost less per head than individual plated mains. The price is confirmed with the final count.

What is the lead time for private jet catering at Port-Menier for a delegation or government flight?+

Lead time on official flights is mainly about approvals: menu sign-off, allergen declarations, and where the food is handed over. Port-Menier's small apron keeps the handover simple, and late orders are handled.

What about customs when ordering a kosher, halal, allergen free or child's special meal into Port-Menier?+

Inbound international flights landing at YPN must declare food, so a sealed special meal sourced here avoids uncertainty. Meals are marked with seat numbers and restriction codes and delivered to the aircraft.

Can you bring food to Port-Menier for the crew during duty time and waiting on the ground?+

Crews on long ground waits at YPN often want something substantial that eats with one hand. We pack crew meals on request, with separate captain and first officer dishes when the operator requires it.

Is catering part of a charter flight into Port-Menier, and how does the departure slot and turnaround affect it?+

A private jet charter into Anticosti does not cover catering. You order it separately and it is invoiced on its own. A longer turnaround simply gives the crew time to re-plate calmly.
