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

Regional dishes of French Lick for jet catering at FRH

Start with the plate Indiana is known for: the pork tenderloin sandwich, a cutlet pounded wide, breaded and fried. On a private jet menu for French Lick it travels with the bun and the pickles in separate boxes, and the cutlet goes into your oven just before service. Around it sit local specialities from southern Indiana: sweet corn, sorghum, persimmon pudding, sugar cream pie and farm cheeses from Orange County and neighbouring counties.

Flying inflight menu items from the French Lick area means thinking about the passenger's day, usually a golf round, a spa or a casino evening. Private jet food for them is lighter than the local diner version: grilled chicken with a corn salad, a regional cheese board, honey from nearby apiaries. Our private jet platters, gourmet inflight meals and private jet snacks put these Indiana products in the drawer, labelled by seat.

The Indiana table also has a sweet side, and passengers ask for it on the way home. Persimmon pudding, sugar cream pie and spiced popcorn make good private jet snacks that survive a short flight without refrigeration trouble. For a French Lick departure we cook and pack them for the aircraft's galley and mark every box by seat number. Local specialities from Indiana are added to the private jet menu whenever the season allows.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at French Lick Municipal Airport (KFRH)

French Lick Municipal sits on a ridge at 792 feet in Orange County, Indiana, and its trips are built around the resort and the golf season. For those flights, private jet catering is cooked and packed for the galley of the aircraft you are actually flying. In-flight catering for the cabin and cabin crew meals for the flight deck are ordered together, on one invoice, and handed to your FBO or handling agent. Executive jet catering, inflight catering and aviation catering follow the same method here as at any other field, with crew meals boxed apart from the guest trays.

Business aviationOur core

Private jet catering for business flights from French Lick (KFRH)

A weekend group heading to the French Lick resorts wants food that reads as local and survives a short flight. Our private jet chef builds a bespoke menu around the tail you are flying. Business jet catering, corporate jet catering and VIP flight catering for Indiana trips are cooked together, and charter flight catering is ordered and invoiced separately from the aircraft. Luxury inflight catering stays simple: farm cheese, corn, a clean hot dish.

State & royalDiscretion, protocol

Diplomatic and state visit aviation catering in French Lick (KFRH)

When a protected passenger overflies or lands in Indiana, the catering order changes: who sees the menu, who handles the boxes, how ingredients are traced. Government flight catering and VIP aviation catering at French Lick follow that procedure, and head of state flight catering is limited to a small named team. State visit aircraft catering is sealed and delivered to the aircraft through your handling agent.

Special meals

Kosher, halal, vegan and gluten free in-flight catering at French Lick Municipal Airport (FRH)

Southern Indiana cooking leans on pork, butter, flour and cream, so the allergens to watch here are dairy, wheat and shellfish-free cross-contact in shared fryers. For French Lick departures, kosher and halal meals are cooked and sealed in their own containers, and vegan and gluten free dishes are built on separate boards. Special meals and allergen free requests come with a seat-numbered card, and kids meals are portioned for small hands and short flights. Tell us the restriction, the seat and the aircraft, and we write the dish around it.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meals and cockpit meals in French Lick (KFRH)

On a long ground wait at French Lick, the crew eats last and wants something that does not need a plate. Ask for crew meals when you place the order, and they are billed on the same invoice as the guest food. Flight crew meals, pilot meals and cockpit meals travel in crew meal boxes labelled CREW, apart from the guest trays, and crew catering for cabin crew meals is packed beside them. If the captain and first officer need different meals for pilots, tell us and we split the boxes.

DeliveryEvery FBO

Airport catering delivered to the FBO at French Lick Municipal Airport (KFRH)

At KFRH the general aviation terminal is where food changes hands. FBO catering here is a plain handover: catering delivery to the FBO, then your handling agent carries the boxes to the ramp. Ground handling catering is agreed by phone or email beforehand, and handling agent catering on a field this small means fewer hands between the kitchen and the drawer. The routine is the same whether the tail is a turboprop or a bizjet.

Aircraft provisioning and airport catering at French Lick Municipal Airport (KFRH)

Most traffic at KFRH is light jets and turboprops, and their galleys are small: one drawer, a compact oven and little cold storage. Galley catering for those aircraft is sized to the actual space, with boxes that stack in the cabin without a trolley. Larger business jets that come in for a resort weekend may need airside catering delivery with a high loader, and we plan the aircraft provisioning with your handling agent when the type calls for it. Tell us the tail and the galley and we pack for it.

About the airportKFRH / FRH

About French Lick Municipal Airport (FRH): airport catering for business aviation

French Lick Municipal is a resort-country field in Orange County, Indiana, with a single paved runway on a ridge at 792 feet. Airport catering here means FBO delivery and a short walk across the ramp. General aviation is the field's main business, and FBO services and ground handling services are modest but dependable. For the resort weekends it serves, it works as a small business aviation hub.

Business aviation

Business aviation traffic at French Lick follows the resort calendar: golf through summer, foliage in autumn, weekend getaways in between. Business aviation catering and aviation catering are ordered for those trips, with in-flight catering and inflight catering for the cabin and executive jet catering for the larger arrivals. Cabin crew meals and crew meals for the flight deck go in the same order, and diplomatic flight catering, rare here, follows the same discipline. As a business aviation hub it is small, but the FBO turns each tail with care.

Customs & food import

French Lick is a domestic US airport, so international flights clear customs at another gateway before arriving. US rules on meat, dairy and fresh produce are strict, which is why imported food is best kept out of the cabin. Catering cooked locally and handed to the handling agent sidesteps the issue, and it suits a small business aviation hub where the ramp is quiet and the FBO knows every tail.

Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.

★★★★★GOVERNMENT

“Nothing about the 7 guest order at FRH called for excess complexity: just a breakfast basket with individual preserves and sensible planning for limited fridge space. The Galley Girls kept the breakfast portions separate from the finishing elements, which gave us control over the final presentation. The side dishes stayed together in one group, so another crew member could follow the same plating sequence. I would discuss airport catering with them again, especially when cabin service sequence needs careful coordination.”

★★★★★LARGE CABIN

“We kept the passenger brief simple at French Lick Municipal Airport: roasted chicken and seasonal vegetables for 11 guests, organised with a small galley worktop in mind. We changed the quantities of sauces, and The Galley Girls reflected the request in the final packing list. The meal organisation stood out more than any sales pitch about inflight catering. There was no need to reconstruct the sandwiches quantities from several messages during the final departure checks.”

★★★★☆CHARTER

“A request for chicken skewers with a couscous salad, 6 passengers, and a short ground stop: that was our brief for the departure at KFRH. This experience of in-flight catering gave us a useful reference for managing crew briefing on another departure. The snack boxes from The Galley Girls were organised around the cabin plan, with the later service items kept apart. The desserts were reserved for the next stage, so the worktop stayed clear while we prepared the initial dishes.”

What crews ask before French LickAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost for a French Lick trip with a long wait on the ground?+

We quote after you give us the tail, the headcount and how long the crew will be on the ground. A short turn at French Lick means one service and one invoice line; a long golf-day wait means a second service. Persimmon desserts in autumn cost differently from a strawberry plate in June.

What is the lead time for private jet catering at French Lick Municipal?+

A resort weekend at French Lick often means a Sunday afternoon departure with a quick turn. We cook to the slot you give us and hand the food to your FBO. For a short turnaround, tell us early about any special meals; last-minute orders are handled.

Do private jet catering orders at KFRH face customs, and can a local Indiana product go on the menu?+

Domestic flights into French Lick do not involve customs for food. Local Indiana products such as sweet corn, sorghum, farm cheeses and persimmon pudding go on the menu freely. International arrivals are cleared at another airport first, and catering follows the rules of that clearance.

Can you bring food into the United States for a flight out of French Lick?+

You can, but customs rules matter on arrival: fresh meat, dairy, fruit and vegetables are tightly controlled when they enter the United States. For a flight leaving French Lick, it is simpler to order locally and keep imported food out of the cabin.

Is catering part of a charter into French Lick, and does the aircraft's galley limit the order?+

The charter contract does not include meals. For French Lick, send us the aircraft type and we size the menu to its galley: a small turboprop gets cold boxes and one hot dish, a larger jet can take a full service.
