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

Private jet catering with local specialities from St. Anthony

St. Anthony sits at the tip of the Great Northern Peninsula, and the local table in Newfoundland and Labrador is shaped by cold water and a short season. Our private jet menu for CYAY leans on what the coast gives: cod, snow crab, mussels, wild berries such as partridgeberry, bakeapple and blueberry. The inflight menu keeps these in a form a galley can finish: snow crab in a chilled salad, cod cakes ready for the oven, berry compote in its own pot. Private jet food from this region travels well because most of it is already cold-water seafood or preserves. Local specialities ride beside the standard private jet platters, gourmet inflight meals and private jet snacks that every crew expects, so a short ground time still produces a proper meal.

Newfoundland and Labrador cooking is plain and generous, and at St. Anthony it is built on the northern shore: cod, capelin in season, snow crab, moose stew when the guests ask for something truly local. For a private jet menu from CYAY we translate that into galley-ready pieces: cold seafood plates kept chilled, savoury tarts and pease pudding for the oven, partridgeberry and bakeapple desserts plated at the last minute. The inflight menu avoids anything fragile in the cabin, and the private jet food stays honest to the region. Local specialities sit next to private jet platters, gourmet inflight meals and private jet snacks, so the same order covers the table, the cockpit and the cabin.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at St. Anthony Airport (CYAY)

On the Great Northern Peninsula, St. Anthony Airport (CYAY) sits a few steps from the apron and the little terminal, and nothing around it sells a provisioning list. That is why private jet catering here is ordered before the aircraft leaves, and why we pack the whole tray: inflight catering, in-flight catering for the return leg, and cabin crew meals boxed separately. Business aviation catering and executive jet catering for CYAY are cooked, labelled and handed to the FBO. Aviation catering for a diplomatic flight catering movement follows the same route, with the protocol office signing off the menu first.

Business aviationOur core

Business jet & VIP jet catering at St. Anthony Airport

A typical business jet stop at CYAY is a few passengers, a turboprop or light jet, and a galley with one oven at most. Business jet catering and corporate jet catering here means trays sized to the seats, VIP flight catering without fuss, and charter flight catering that matches the schedule. A private jet chef writes a bespoke menu around what the cabin can finish, and luxury inflight catering stays simple: cold seafood, one hot dish, sauce apart.

Head of state and government inflight catering at St. Anthony Airport (YAY)

When an official aircraft lands at St. Anthony, the menu is cleared before anything is cooked. Government flight catering, head of state flight catering, VIP aviation catering and state visit aircraft catering share one rule here: a known team, sealed trays, no names on the lids.

Special meals and allergen free inflight catering at St. Anthony Airport

A small northern airport means few substitutes at the last minute, so special meals at St. Anthony are planned from the order, not improvised. Kosher and halal meals travel sealed and are opened only at the seat. Vegan and gluten free dishes are cooked on separate boards, and seafood-heavy regional cooking is why we ask early about shellfish: an allergen free tray is packed apart from anything with crab or cod. Kids meals are simple and labelled by seat.

DeliveryEvery FBO

Airport catering delivered to the FBO at St. Anthony Airport (CYAY)

At CYAY the FBO and the handling agent do the last metres. FBO catering is handed over there, catering delivery to the FBO follows your slot, and ground handling catering and handling agent catering are arranged around the general aviation terminal's access rules.

High loaderLarge cabins, bizliners

Large cabin jet catering with a high loader at St. Anthony Airport (YAY)

Aircraft at CYAY range from turboprops to larger business jets, and the type decides how the galley catering is loaded. A smaller cabin door means carts are carried up by hand; a larger aircraft may need a high loader arranged through your handling agent. Airside catering delivery is agreed with the FBO before the slot, and aircraft provisioning is packed so that nothing needs a second trip on a short ground time.

About the airportCYAY / YAY

General aviation and airport catering at St. Anthony Airport (YAY)

CYAY serves a quiet northern community and its visitors, with general aviation traffic in a handful of seasons. Airport catering reflects that: simple, cold-friendly, packed for a short turn.

Business aviation

Summer brings icebergs and a short burst of general aviation to CYAY; winter brings little. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering are booked ahead because FBO services are modest. Business aviation catering and executive jet catering are sized for turboprops, diplomatic flight catering waits on protocol, and cabin crew meals come boxed separately. As a business aviation hub it is small, and ground handling services are confirmed before landing.

Customs & food import

Canada inspects fresh food entering the country, particularly meat, dairy and produce, so airport catering for CYAY is cooked in Newfoundland and kept sealed. If you need something specific from outside, tell us early and we say what the border will allow.

★★★★★VIP AIRLINER

“Despite a small galley worktop, we wanted the 8 guests at YAY to enjoy beef fillet with roasted potatoes without a complicated cabin service. The Galley Girls suggested compact food boxes for the canapés, and that choice worked well with our storage arrangement. We placed the breakfast portions in their planned storage area without first having to reorganise all the catering boxes. The order made aviation catering feel manageable because the meal organisation had been considered beforehand.”

“A request for mushroom risotto and a green salad, 3 passengers, and different crew meal preferences: that was our brief for the departure at St. Anthony Airport. With several people involved, The Galley Girls kept the canapés and delivery arrangements together in a concise order update. My main takeaway from this aviation catering services order was the practical approach to meal organisation. We could account for the snack boxes before passing the boxes to the cabin team, without a lengthy unpacking exercise.”

★★★★★LARGE CABIN

“Food presentation mattered to our 9 guests, but a small galley worktop also had to be considered when organising a cheese board and savoury canapés at CYAY. I want an aviation catering company to understand written menu details, and this order gave us a useful starting point. I asked The Galley Girls to review the crew provisions quantities against the passenger brief, and the proposed portions made sense. We also checked the desserts before approval, which helped avoid a second round of questions later in the preparation.”

What crews ask before St. AnthonyAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost for a flight into St. Anthony?+

The honest answer starts with customs: food coming into Canada is checked, so a menu cooked locally avoids rework. A crab platter and a simple sandwich tray sit at very different prices, and private jet catering for CYAY is quoted by line so you see what moves the total.

What is the lead time for catering at St. Anthony?+

The galley decides. If your aircraft has a single oven and a drawer, we plan hot items accordingly, and lead time becomes a question of what finishes well on board. Last-minute orders at St. Anthony are accepted with a shorter menu.

What about customs when catering a flight at St. Anthony?+

Plan for weather first, border second. Canadian customs treat imported fresh food carefully, so our trays for CYAY are prepared locally and can be repacked if the window changes.

Can you bring food when flying into St. Anthony?+

Only if it passes customs. Many guests prefer to order a return-leg tray here, where we know what the aircraft can hold and nothing needs to be declared.

Is catering part of a charter into St. Anthony?+

It is a separate order. A private jet charter into St. Anthony does not carry food with it, so tell us if you leave at dawn or after dark and we match the menu.
