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

Private jet catering with local specialities from Hayward

The Bay Area is one of the best-supplied food regions in the United States, and a private jet menu for Hayward Executive can draw on all of it. California is famous for its produce year-round: Meyer lemons, Hass avocados, Castroville artichokes, Half Moon Bay pumpkins in autumn and stone fruit through summer. Dungeness crab arrives in the cold months and Pacific seafood, from halibut to Monterey Bay prawns, shapes a good inflight menu. Sourdough from the Bay, Point Reyes cheeses, Sonoma and Napa wines and Hayward's own Bay Area bakeries round out the local specialities. Private jet food from here travels well: chilled crab salads, grilled vegetable plates, slow-cooked short rib that finishes in the oven. For flights out of Hayward, we build private jet platters of cheese, charcuterie and fruit, gourmet inflight meals for the main service and private jet snacks for the second leg. Each dish is packed for the galley you have, with the sauce apart and the cold items marked for re-plating.

A private jet menu for Hayward starts from California's farms and the Pacific. Local specialities include Dungeness crab, wild salmon, Sonoma lamb, Point Reyes blue cheese, Castroville artichokes, heirloom tomatoes and Bay Area sourdough. Our inflight menu pairs these with what a galley can actually do: dishes that hold cold, dishes that finish in the oven, and sauces packed separately. Private jet food built on California ingredients looks and tastes fresh at altitude: citrus, avocado, grains, grilled fish and seasonal greens. Private jet platters, gourmet inflight meals and private jet snacks are all written for this field and its Bay Area passengers, then handed over at the FBO on your slot.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Hayward Executive Airport (KHWD)

Hayward Executive sits at 52 feet on the east shore of San Francisco Bay, a reliever field where business jets avoid the congestion of the larger Bay Area airports. Private jet catering here is built around Northern California produce, Dungeness crab in season and the short, tidy turnarounds of a GA terminal. We write the menu for your galley, deliver to the FBO, and treat inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering as one order, billed like any other. Business aviation catering, executive jet catering and diplomatic flight catering all start from the same brief: aircraft type, headcount, slot. Cabin crew meals for the flight attendant working the cabin are a line you add when you order.

Business aviationOur core

Corporate and VIP jet catering at Hayward Executive Airport (HWD)

Business jet catering at KHWD tends toward light and midsize aircraft with a small galley. Corporate jet catering is therefore planned around an oven and a drawer. For VIP flight catering and charter flight catering, a private jet chef proposes a bespoke menu, and luxury inflight catering draws on California's seafood and produce.

Special meals & dietary requirements: in-flight catering at Hayward Executive Airport

California cooking leans on nuts, shellfish, soy and sesame, so allergen control at Hayward starts in the kitchen: separate boards, separate packing, a card per seat. Kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free and allergen free requests are handled as written procedures, with special meals sealed and labelled by seat number. Kids meals are packed in portions a small passenger can finish, and dairy-free or nut-free versions are marked clearly on the lid.

Crew meal boxes and crew meals at Hayward Executive Airport

For the crew waiting at KHWD, crew meals are a separate line on the order, on request. Flight crew meals, pilot meals and cockpit meals are sized for a short break, and crew meal boxes travel in the drawer. Crew catering supports different meals for pilots when the operator's policy asks for it; cabin crew meals are packed the same way.

FBO catering at Hayward Executive Airport (HWD): delivery to your aircraft

Aircraft provisioning for large cabins: airport catering at Hayward Executive Airport

Most traffic at Hayward Executive is light and midsize jets, so galley catering usually comes aboard by hand through the main door, with no high loader needed. For a larger aircraft, airside catering delivery is arranged through the FBO and your handling agent, with aircraft provisioning planned around the door height and galley layout. Give us the aircraft type and the loading is planned around its door and galley.

About the airportKHWD / HWD

About Hayward Executive Airport (KHWD): aviation catering and general aviation

Hayward Executive is a general aviation airport in California that serves Bay Area corporate and charter traffic. Airport catering here is straightforward: one terminal, one apron, a clear handover.

Business aviation

The field is a business aviation hub for Silicon Valley and the East Bay. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering orders here often cover business aviation catering for corporate flights, executive jet catering for owner-operators and diplomatic flight catering for visiting delegations. Whoever staffs the cabin can have cabin crew meals added to the order if they ask for them. FBO services and ground handling services support each handover, and general aviation is the daily rhythm.

Customs & food import

United States customs rules govern food that enters the country; they do not restrict what is loaded at Hayward for departure. International arrivals should check CBP requirements with the handling agent before ordering.

★★★★★LIGHT JET
“Breakfast was already sorted; at KHWD, the next request was vegetarian wraps and colourful salads for 3 guests, with a small galley worktop to work around. The order made private jet catering feel manageable because the storage requirements had been considered beforehand. The Galley Girls confirmed the handover contact and identified the starters, making the catering delivery easier for our team to track. The salads went straight to the right colleague instead of circulating between several people during the turnaround.”

★★★★★VIP AIRLINER
“Having 12 guests request a cold lunch with cheese and fruit at HWD meant planning the portions carefully while accounting for an evening cabin service. For private jet catering services, that attention to portion planning made the order noticeably easier to manage. I asked The Galley Girls to review the sauces quantities against the passenger brief, and the proposed portions made sense. It was useful to see the starters listed separately when checking how much space the complete order would require.”

★★★★★LARGE CABIN
“Food presentation mattered to our 5 guests, but a family lunch request also had to be considered when organising herb chicken with a quinoa salad at Hayward Executive Airport. The Galley Girls grouped the canapés by service, which was more useful to us than simply receiving a list of dishes. The salads were easy to locate during our cabin checks. I want a private jet catering company to understand cabin service sequence, and this order gave us a useful starting point.”

Hayward in five questionsAsked by crews
How much does private jet catering cost for a long leg with two services on board out of Hayward?+

Cost follows the choices you make for the flight. Out of KHWD, a two-service trip with local seafood and a cheese course is priced differently from a light snack order. We send a quote on request and invoice it separately from the aircraft.

What is the lead time for private jet catering at Hayward Executive when the passenger count changes?+

When the passenger count moves, we rework the quantities rather than start over. At Hayward Executive, the produce is local and available, so a late change rarely limits the menu. Call or email day or night.

What do customs require for catering on a delegation or government flight at Hayward?+

United States customs rules cover food entering the country, and a government flight adds its own protocol. We plan the menu with your handling agent so that what we pack for Hayward meets both.

Can you bring food on board at Hayward for a special-meal request, such as kosher, halal, allergen or child?+

Personal food is allowed, though a kosher, halal, allergen or child meal is better prepared for the flight. We seal and label each one so the crew can serve it without opening a tray by mistake.

Is catering part of a charter flying into Hayward, and what about crew duty time and waiting on the ground?+

A private jet charter into Hayward does not carry the catering with it: that is a separate order, priced separately. A crew near the end of its duty time can ask for cockpit meals packed for quick eating.
