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 Astoria for your inflight catering

Astoria Regional is the gateway to the northern Oregon coast, and the table here is the Pacific and the Columbia. The private jet menu for KAST leans on Dungeness crab in season, wild Pacific salmon, albacore tuna, Willapa and Netarts oysters, and Tillamook cheese from down the coast. Local specialities travel differently in a galley: crab is picked and chilled, salmon is portioned for the oven, and sauces go apart. Our inflight menu for Oregon guests also draws on Willamette Valley produce, marionberries and hazelnuts, plus pinot noir for the cellar. Private jet platters of smoked salmon and local cheese, gourmet inflight meals finished in the galley oven, and private jet snacks such as hazelnuts and berry preserves keep the private jet food honest to the region.

On the Oregon coast the season writes the menu. For Astoria, our private jet menu follows what the boats land: Dungeness crab in winter, salmon and albacore through summer, oysters from the nearby bays. This is private jet food that stays recognisable after a drawer and a small oven, which is why the inflight menu here is short and local. Local specialities include Tillamook cheddar, hazelnuts, marionberry preserves and Willamette Valley pinot noir. Private jet platters carry the cold items chilled, gourmet inflight meals come with sauce apart, and private jet snacks fill the gaps for a guest who arrives hungry in Oregon.

Business aviationOur core

VIP flight and private jet catering at Astoria Regional Airport (KAST)

A typical business brief at Astoria Regional is a light jet or turboprop carrying a small party to the coast. For business jet catering and corporate jet catering, we build a bespoke menu around the galley: cold lunch, a hot salmon course, sauces apart. VIP flight catering and charter flight catering run through the same order, and luxury inflight catering is written by a private jet chef who knows what survives a delay in sea-level fog.

FBO delivery and FBO catering at Astoria Regional Airport (AST)

FBO catering at Astoria is handed over at the apron by your handling agent. Catering delivery to the FBO is coordinated with the general aviation terminal, and ground handling catering follows the slot you give us. Handling agent catering means one contact for airside access and one place to sign.

Aircraft provisioning and airport catering at Astoria Regional Airport (KAST)

Astoria's apron serves small jets and turboprops, so galley catering is carried by hand or on a small cart rather than a high loader. Airside catering delivery follows access agreed with your handling agent, and aircraft provisioning is sized to the galley and the door of the type.

About the airportKAST / AST

Aviation catering and business aviation at Astoria Regional Airport (AST)

Astoria Regional is a small coastal field at the mouth of the Columbia River, handling general aviation and private flights into northern Oregon. As a modest business aviation hub for the coast, airport catering here stays simple: one apron, a general aviation terminal, FBO services and ground handling services all within a short walk of each other.

Business aviation

Traffic at Astoria Regional is mostly light jets and turboprops on coastal trips, which makes this a quiet business aviation hub rather than a busy one. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering are sized to those galleys, and business aviation catering or executive jet catering orders are packed to survive a held departure in fog. Diplomatic flight catering is uncommon but follows protocol, and cabin crew meals and crew meals are packed with the same care as the guest menu. This remains a general aviation field first.

Customs & food import

A flight arriving from abroad faces U.S. food import checks, and Astoria's role as a small business aviation hub does not change that. The practical answer is catering prepared domestically, sealed and labelled, and handed to your handling agent so the galley stays clear at inspection.

★★★★★BUSINESS JET

“Breakfast was already sorted; at Astoria Regional Airport, the next request was a cold lunch with cheese and fruit for 9 guests, with a family lunch request to work around. The order made in flight catering feel manageable because the final order confirmation had been considered beforehand. I asked The Galley Girls for the snack boxes in clearly marked packs, with garnishes supplied separately for plating on board. The side dishes stayed together in one group, so another crew member could follow the same plating sequence.”

★★★★★BUSINESS JET

“Clear quantities were essential at KAST: we had 8 passengers expecting beef fillet with roasted potatoes and were working around several individual meal preferences. This experience of inflight catering services gave us a useful reference for managing catering handover on another departure. The sauces from The Galley Girls were organised around the cabin plan, with the later service items kept apart. We left the breakfast portions stored until needed, which kept the first service manageable and reduced unnecessary handling.”

“What impressed me at AST was how a request for poached fish with steamed rice was handled despite a tight boarding window. The Galley Girls updated the desserts in the written order and sent back a confirmation that clearly showed our amendments. The note about the side dishes was easy to spot, and we could brief the rest of the team quickly. I want an inflight catering company to understand portion planning, and this order gave us a useful starting point.”

Astoria Regional: the questionsAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost at Astoria when the passenger count changes at the last minute?+

A late change in passengers is normal at KAST. Tell us the new count and we adjust the quantities, not the whole menu. The cost then tracks the dishes you keep: Dungeness crab sits higher, roasted chicken and seasonal vegetables sit lower.

What lead time do you need for a delegation or government flight into Astoria?+

A delegation changes the question from speed to approval. We agree dishes, labels and handover point before production, and the same line takes last-minute additions, day or night.

What should I know about customs when ordering a special meal for a flight into Astoria?+

Food crossing into the United States is checked for fruit, meat and dairy, so an international arrival needs the galley declared. Kosher, halal, allergen-free and child meals stay sealed and labelled, which makes the inspection simpler. We tell you what each sealed meal contains.

Can you bring food onto the aircraft for crew waiting on the ground at Astoria?+

Crews can bring their own food, though a held departure in fog can stretch the day. Crew meals and cockpit meals can be added to the order on demand and are billed as normal.

Is catering part of a charter into Astoria?+

Not by default. A private jet charter contract rarely lists meals, so we take a separate order and bill it separately. The slot and the turnaround length tell us how the galley should be packed.
