Catering to your aircraft in Jeffersonville.
Clark Regional runs on general aviation traffic along the Ohio River, and what we pack for a Jeffersonville departure depends on the aircraft, the slot and the crew. Former VIP flight attendants cook, label and hand it over for your galley.
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.
Fourteen years on VIP and head-of-state cabins. Can plate for twelve in a G650 galley and still land it hot.
The one who reads every diet card twice. If it says no cross-contact, it means no cross-contact.
Answers at 5 a.m. when the leg moved overnight. Same-day swaps are her love language.
Jeffersonville sits on the Ohio River in southern Indiana, and the private jet menu for Clark Regional borrows from the Midwest and the Kentucky side of the river. Aviation catering here means local specialities written down the way they travel in a galley: a hot brown that needs the oven and its sauce apart, country ham biscuits that go out chilled, a Derby pie that is cut by passenger before it leaves. The inflight menu changes with the Indiana growing season: sweet corn and tomatoes in summer, apples and squash in autumn. Private jet food from the Ohio River Valley holds up well in a drawer, which is why it suits a tight galley. Local specialities are never a set list; they are agreed per flight, with the Indiana kitchen working to the headcount and the aircraft.
For a departure from Jeffersonville, Indiana, the private jet menu starts with what the region grows and cooks. Kentucky bourbon sauce on a chilled dessert, smoked pork shoulder sliced for re-plating, Hoosier sugar cream pie in individual portions: these are the local specialities that survive a cabin. Inflight menu choices are written plate by plate, with the way each one finishes noted on the label. Private jet food for Clark Regional is packed to the galley the aircraft actually carries, so a light jet gets cold plates and a larger cabin gets hot courses. Aviation catering at this field changes with the season rather than keeping a fixed list.

Clark Regional is a field of general aviation traffic on the Indiana bank of the Ohio River, and the trays that go onto an aircraft here are planned for the galley it actually has. Private jet catering at KJVY is written around that aircraft, that slot and that crew. Inflight catering for a Jeffersonville departure follows the same logic, whether the leg is a short hop or a long haul, and in-flight catering for crew is kept apart from guest service. Business aviation catering, executive jet catering and aviation catering for the whole field are built here by former VIP flight attendants. Diplomatic flight catering is cleared by protocol first, and cabin crew meals are boxed and marked separately.
Business jet catering at KJVY begins with who is flying and what the cabin carries. Corporate jet catering for a Jeffersonville executive trip is usually compact, VIP flight catering for a guest list needs more courses, and charter flight catering follows the operator's brief. Luxury inflight catering here means a private jet chef writing a bespoke menu to the galley, not a fixed list.
When a Jeffersonville movement is official, the menu is agreed with the protocol office first. Government flight catering and head of state flight catering at Clark Regional carry traceable sourcing, VIP aviation catering is delivered quietly, and state visit aircraft catering is handled by a small named team.
At KJVY, special meals are a procedure written for the Jeffersonville kitchen, not a label on a lid. Kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free and allergen free boxes are packed apart from everything else, sealed and numbered by seat so nobody opens the wrong one. Southern cooking hides allergens in roux, in cornmeal dredges and in shared fryer oil, so those are checked line by line before a menu is agreed. Kids meals are sized and plated for the cabin, with the same checks applied.
A sheet per guest. Separate boards, separate boxes.
Sealed, certificate in the same box.
Their own menu, nothing to cut at altitude.
Vegan, low-carb, light — composed, never compromised.
On a Jeffersonville rotation, crew catering is a separate order from the guest menu. Crew meals and flight crew meals are packed in marked boxes, pilot meals suit the cockpit, cockpit meals are simple and sturdy, crew meal boxes are numbered, and different meals for pilots can be arranged on request, invoiced as any other order.
FBO catering at KJVY is handed over where your handling agent directs. Catering delivery to the FBO is agreed before the slot, the general aviation terminal gives access to the apron, ground handling catering follows the airside rules, and handling agent catering is coordinated by phone or email.
At Clark Regional, galley catering is decided by the aircraft type. A light jet or midsize cabin takes trays straight through the door, while a larger corporate aircraft may need the carts rolled to a higher sill. Airside catering delivery is arranged with your handling agent, who opens the right gate for the apron, and aircraft provisioning is agreed by tail number before the slot.
Mention it when you orderCertified, inspected, with cold-chain records filed against your trip.
Whichever terminal you park at, handover is at the aircraft, on your slot.
Allergen sheet per guest, halal and kosher on request, sealed and labelled.
Itemised and trip-report ready, sent after the leg.
Clark Regional is a general aviation field on the Indiana bank of the Ohio River, and airport catering here is shaped by that: a compact apron, a terminal within sight of the ramp, corporate and owner traffic rather than scheduled flying. FBO services and ground handling services cover the practical side of a Jeffersonville departure, and the field works as a small business aviation hub for the southern Indiana and Louisville side of the river.
Most Clark Regional movements are corporate. Inflight catering and in-flight catering for those legs are planned plate by plate against the galley the aircraft carries, with aviation catering and business aviation catering following the trip's brief. Executive jet catering suits owner and executive trips, diplomatic flight catering is cleared with protocol before anything is cooked, and cabin crew meals and crew meals ride in separate marked boxes. Because Jeffersonville works as a business aviation hub for the river valley, the seasonal rhythm is Derby week, autumn conference travel and summer owner trips.
Domestic legs out of Jeffersonville carry few food restrictions. International departures are where it matters: the arrival country's import rules decide what can stay aboard, so we ask for the route before packing. Your handling agent and the FBO services team at Clark Regional manage airside access, and ground handling services coordinate the handover to the aircraft, so airport catering for an international leg is agreed around that access and the arrival rules.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“Rather than an elaborate service at Clark Regional Airport, our 9 guests wanted mushroom risotto and a green salad, organised sensibly around different crew meal preferences. I want an aviation catering company to understand meal organisation, and this order gave us a useful starting point. We described our serving sequence to The Galley Girls and asked for the side dishes to be packed accordingly. That left time to check the canapés properly before the passengers were ready for the next part of the service.”
“Getting chicken skewers with a couscous salad ready for 3 guests at Clark Regional Airport required an order that accounted for an evening cabin service. The Galley Girls used a readable packing list for the side dishes, which helped when two colleagues checked the order together. The canapés were also listed clearly, which made it easier to pass instructions between crew members during preparation. When comparing aviation catering companies, I would look closely at galley preparation after this experience.”
“As the person coordinating a seafood starter and warm vegetable sides for 7 passengers at KJVY, I needed an arrangement that considered two separate meal services. The Galley Girls kept the side dishes separate from the finishing elements, which gave us control over the final presentation. Keeping the crew provisions aside until service helped preserve the presentation while we dealt with the boarding tasks. I appreciated the emphasis on catering handover throughout the flight catering arrangements.”
A short answer: the aircraft decides. Galley size, oven or no oven, number of seats and the dishes chosen from the Ohio Valley list all shape the price of private jet catering at KJVY. Give us the type and we will quote it as an order, invoiced like any other.
For Clark Regional the lead time conversation starts with weather. A forecast front can move a departure, so the order is kept flexible until the slot is firm. Last-minute orders are handled, and fresh local produce is confirmed when you place it.
Customs shows up when the return flight leaves the United States. We plan a Clark Regional return-leg order around what the arrival country allows, avoiding meat and fresh produce where those are restricted.
You may bring your own food on board. For a dawn or after-dark leg from Clark Regional, our packing keeps dishes separated by passenger and by crew, which many flight attendants prefer.
Charter and catering are two separate orders. Into Jeffersonville, the handling agent at Clark Regional manages airside entry, so we coordinate the handover with them for your tail and slot.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
