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

Inflight catering with the flavours of Fayetteville (FAY)

Fayetteville sits in the Sandhills and Cape Fear region of North Carolina, and the private jet menu for KFAY draws on Eastern Carolina cooking that survives a galley. Our inflight menu starts with pulled pork barbecue in the vinegar-and-pepper style, packed with the sauce in its own pot so the meat does not go soft. Private jet food from here also means pimento cheese on soft rolls, fried chicken that is crisped at re-plating, and collards and mac and cheese that finish in the oven. These local specialities show up as private jet platters for six to eight guests, as gourmet inflight meals plated for a single seat, and as private jet snacks: boiled peanuts, cheese straws, sweet potato chips and benne wafers. Sweet tea and fresh lemonade travel chilled in sealed bottles. In the North Carolina season, peaches and strawberries replace the usual imported fruit plate, and a Carolina menu for a light jet stays short, because the cabin is small and the galley has one oven at most.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Fayetteville Regional Airport - Grannis Field (KFAY)

In Fayetteville the sweet tea is cold, the pork is slow-smoked and the passengers often arrive from Fort Liberty with a short window. Private jet catering at Fayetteville Regional (KFAY / FAY) follows that rhythm: we cook, pack and label for the galley on your aircraft, then hand over at the FBO. Inflight catering and in-flight catering here lean on regional food that travels well, while aviation catering and business aviation catering cover the usual corporate and charter trips. Executive jet catering, diplomatic flight catering for official visitors and cabin crew meals are all written into the same order.

Business aviationOur core

Business jet catering at Fayetteville, KFAY, usually serves a handful of passengers in a light or midsize cabin. Corporate jet catering here is a short brief: the tail, the seat count, the slot. VIP flight catering and charter flight catering for visitors to Fort Liberty or Carolina business meetings come as a bespoke menu written with a private jet chef who knows a one-oven galley, with luxury inflight catering kept simple and well finished.

Government flight and VIP aviation catering at Fayetteville Regional Airport - Grannis Field

Government flight catering at Fayetteville often follows military and official travel linked to the nearby post. Head of state flight catering is rare here, but VIP aviation catering and state visit aircraft catering are planned with protocol, a named team and sealed, traceable dishes. Discretion is the point: the order goes through the handling agent, not through the kitchen.

Dietary requirements and aviation catering at Fayetteville Regional Airport - Grannis Field (KFAY)

Southern kitchens use pork fat, butter and wheat flour almost everywhere, so special meals at Fayetteville are handled as a procedure. Kosher and halal dishes are cooked and sealed apart from the barbecue line, vegan plates avoid lard in the greens and beans, and gluten free and allergen free meals are packed on a separate board with separate utensils. Kids meals can be simple plates of plain chicken, fruit and rice, labelled by seat.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meal boxes and crew meals at Fayetteville Regional Airport - Grannis Field

The crew at KFAY may wait on the ramp while a Fort Liberty passenger runs late, so crew meals are an on-request line of the order. Flight crew meals travel in sturdy boxes, pilot meals are different dishes for captain and first officer when the policy asks, and crew catering is invoiced with the trip. Cockpit meals are simple; crew meal boxes are marked CREW. Different meals for pilots are specified on the order, and cabin crew meals ride in the same delivery.

Airport catering at the FBO or general aviation terminal, Fayetteville Regional Airport - Grannis Field

FBO catering is coordinated with the general aviation terminal, ground handling catering matches the ramp plan, and catering delivery to the aircraft is set against your slot. Handling agent catering stays on one order from request to delivery.

High loaderLarge cabins, bizliners

High loader delivery for jet catering at Fayetteville Regional Airport - Grannis Field (FAY)

At Fayetteville the aircraft is usually a light or midsize jet, so galley catering is carried by hand through the cabin door and the high loader rarely comes into play. Airside catering delivery is arranged with your handling agent and the FBO, and aircraft provisioning for a larger cabin or a visiting government transport is flagged in the order so the right vehicle and the right door are ready on the Grannis Field ramp.

About the airportKFAY / FAY

About Fayetteville Regional Airport - Grannis Field (KFAY): aviation catering and general aviation

Fayetteville Regional Airport, known as Grannis Field, serves the Cape Fear region of North Carolina with commercial service and a general aviation ramp used by business aircraft. For airport catering, it is a compact field where the general aviation terminal and the ramp are close together. Visiting crews find FBO services at the general aviation ramp, with ground handling services arranged through the handling agent for each arrival.

Business aviation

Business aviation at Fayetteville is shaped by the Army post, regional companies and Carolina leisure traffic. As a small business aviation hub, KFAY sees executive jet catering orders for light cabins, inflight catering for charter groups, in-flight catering for early departures and aviation catering for crews. Business aviation catering stays modest, diplomatic flight catering appears with official visitors, and cabin crew meals are added on request.

Customs & food import

International arrivals at Fayetteville go through U.S. Customs and Border Protection when arranged in advance. U.S. rules limit fresh meat, fruit and vegetables brought from abroad, so catering ordered locally avoids declarations. Tell us if the aircraft arrives from outside the United States, and we plan the order accordingly.

★★★★★VIP AIRLINER

“On this departure from Fayetteville Regional Airport - Grannis Field, 12 passengers had chosen a selection of petits fours and sandwiches, and a revised passenger count needed to be reflected in the order. The order made charter flight catering feel manageable because the portion planning had been considered beforehand. The starters supplied by The Galley Girls were straightforward to check against the written menu before the cabin handover. The sandwiches were also listed clearly, which made it easier to pass instructions between crew members during preparation.”

Naomi H. | Chief cabin officer — BBJ

★★★★☆GOVERNMENT

“Menu approval at KFAY covered yoghurt pots and fresh berries for 11 guests, leaving us to organise the service around a revised passenger count. The Galley Girls grouped the main courses by service, which was more useful to us than simply receiving a list of dishes. That left time to check the sauces properly before the passengers were ready for the next part of the service. Our brief for private jet food was met with a sensible plan for storage requirements.”

Sean U. | Government flight manager

★★★★★BUSINESS JET

“Nothing about the 5 guest order at FAY called for excess complexity: just mini sandwiches and individual desserts and sensible planning for different crew meal preferences. The Galley Girls updated the sauces in the written order and sent back a confirmation that clearly showed our amendments. The breakfast portions 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 cabin service sequence.”

Asked before every KFAY slotAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost for a delegation flight into Fayetteville?+

How much private jet catering costs for an official party into Grannis Field comes from what is on the trays: smoked pork and slaw sit at one level, shrimp and grits plated per seat at another. Protocol requests add handling, not mystery.

What is the lead time for a kosher, halal or allergen meal at Fayetteville?+

At KFAY the lead time for a kosher or halal plate depends on the product: sealed kosher dishes need a clean setup, while an allergen free tray needs a separate surface. Last-minute requests are handled the same way, with the card kept on the lid.

What do customs mean for catering when the crew is waiting on the ground at Fayetteville?+

On an international arrival, leftover meat and fruit may be taken by officers. Catering ordered in Fayetteville avoids that problem, and crew sitting out duty time eat what was cooked in North Carolina.

Can you bring food on board for a quick turnaround at Fayetteville?+

You can, but a short turnaround leaves no space to prepare, heat and clean. Meals that arrive packed and labelled for the galley fit the slot better than food carried on board.

Is catering part of a charter when you bring in a local peach menu to Fayetteville?+

No, the contract covers the aircraft and its crew, not the galley. A peach platter or sweet potato biscuits in season go on the order like any other dish, ordered apart from the booking and invoiced on their own.
