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 Houma

Houma is the heart of Louisiana's Terrebonne Parish, and the private jet menu here is written from the bayou. Local specialities travel better than you would expect when they are packed for a galley: shrimp etouffee with the rice in its own box, boudin cut in rounds and served warm, crawfish pies, and shrimp remoulade kept chilled. Our inflight menu for Houma Terrebonne starts from what the Louisiana season gives, so private jet food in spring means crawfish and in summer means Gulf shrimp and sweet corn. Private jet platters carry cold boiled shrimp, andouille and pickled okra; gourmet inflight meals take the hot dishes with sauce apart; private jet snacks run to pralines and cracklin. All of it is real local specialities of the Louisiana coast, packed so the passenger can eat it at altitude without a mess.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Houma Terrebonne Airport (KHUM)

The first thing a crew notices at HUM is the humidity, and it decides what travels well: nothing delicate that wilts, plenty that holds. Our private jet catering for Houma is built by former VIP flight attendants who know what a drawer and a small oven can take. Business aviation catering here leans on shrimp, crawfish and smoked sausage; executive jet catering and inflight catering follow your tail and your galley, and cabin crew meals are ordered on request. In-flight catering for state or diplomatic flight catering movements goes through the same protocol-checked process as any order, aviation catering included.

Business aviationOur core

Private jet catering for business flights from Houma (KHUM)

A typical business jet brief at Houma comes from the Gulf energy and marine sector: four to six passengers, a midsize jet, a short rotation. Business jet catering and corporate jet catering are built to that cabin, with a private jet chef writing a bespoke menu around Gulf seafood. VIP flight catering and charter flight catering follow the same file, and luxury inflight catering at Houma means doing a few things well rather than many things broadly.

State & royalDiscretion, protocol

State visit and VIP aviation catering at Houma Terrebonne Airport

When an official movement lands at KHUM, protocol decides the menu. Government flight catering, head of state flight catering and VIP aviation catering all follow a written, traceable procedure here, and state visit aircraft catering is handed over only to the named contact. Discretion is the whole job.

Halal, kosher and kids meals: inflight catering at Houma Terrebonne Airport (HUM)

Louisiana kitchens run on roux, shellfish stock, pork and butter, so the diet question in Houma is about where allergens hide: gumbo base made with shellfish, red beans seasoned with ham, a fryer shared between shrimp and everything else. We handle kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free and allergen free requests as a written procedure, with the dish cooked and sealed in its own tray and marked by seat number. Special meals and kids meals are ordered with the rest of the file, and a shellfish allergy on board changes the whole menu rather than one dish.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Flight crew meals on request at Houma Terrebonne Airport

Pilot meals at Houma can be as simple as a sandwich or as local as red beans and sausage. Crew meals, flight crew meals and cockpit meals are all on request and billed with the order. Crew catering arrives in crew meal boxes marked CREW, and different meals for pilots are packed separately so the captain and the first officer never share a dish.

FBO delivery and FBO catering at Houma Terrebonne Airport (HUM)

The FBO at Houma Terrebonne is the point of contact, and FBO catering follows its routine. Catering delivery to the FBO or straight to the aircraft is agreed with your handling agent, and ground handling catering is signed for at the general aviation terminal. Handling agent catering at KHUM is a short chain of people.

High loader and aircraft provisioning: aviation catering at Houma Terrebonne Airport

At Houma Terrebonne the aircraft type decides how galley catering gets loaded. A light or midsize jet takes the order by hand through the main door, while a larger cabin or a visiting turboprop may need a different approach to airside catering delivery. Tell us the tail and we plan the aircraft provisioning around its door height, its galley size and its ice and oven setup. At a 10 foot elevation field with a modest apron, we coordinate with your handling agent so the trolleys and boxes reach the aircraft without delay on the ramp.

About the airportKHUM / HUM

Airport catering at Houma Terrebonne Airport (KHUM)

HUM is a small, working airport in the Louisiana bayou, used for corporate and charter flights. Airport catering at Houma is tailored to a short list of regular users, and the FBO services and ground handling services keep the apron moving.

Business aviation

Houma is a regional business aviation hub for the energy and marine sectors, and inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering follow its schedule. Business aviation catering is busiest around offshore crew changes and executive travel, and executive jet catering for a visiting delegation is arranged like any order. Diplomatic flight catering is rare here and handled with care, and cabin crew meals are ordered on request. General aviation traffic is mostly light jets and turboprops.

Customs & food import

For international arrivals at KHUM, US agriculture inspection applies to food already on board, and any leftovers from the inbound leg may be held. Louisiana-sourced catering is domestic and clean for customs. Ask us and we confirm what to declare for your tail.

★★★★★LIGHT JET
“An order of roasted vegetable bowls with separate dressings for 5 people at HUM had to be organised around several individual meal preferences. The confirmation from The Galley Girls showed the canapés clearly enough for us to check the planned service quantities. The quantities of side dishes matched our service plan, leaving us comfortable with the order before the final briefing. I want an inflight catering company to understand packing arrangement, and this order gave us a useful starting point.”

★★★★★VIP AIRLINER
“Service planning came first at Houma Terrebonne Airport, with 5 passengers choosing herb chicken with a quinoa salad and a late menu amendment influencing our preparation. We described our serving sequence to The Galley Girls and asked for the crew provisions to be packed accordingly. We left the starters stored until needed, which kept the first service manageable and reduced unnecessary handling. When comparing inflight catering companies, I would look closely at catering handover after this experience.”
Aaron Q. | Chief cabin officer — BBJ

★★★★★LARGE CABIN
“For 3 passengers departing from KHUM, the agreed menu was grilled salmon with a lemon dressing; our main consideration was a revised passenger count. The Galley Girls used a readable packing list for the breakfast portions, which helped when two colleagues checked the order together. I appreciated the emphasis on storage requirements throughout the in-flight catering services arrangements. We could distinguish the side dishes at a glance instead of lifting lids just to establish what belonged to each service.”

Ordering for KHUM, in shortAsked by crews
How much does private jet catering cost for a flight out of Houma?+

Start with the shrimp: how much does private jet catering cost at Houma depends heavily on whether you want Gulf shrimp, crawfish or a simple sandwich plate. Seafood is the variable here, and a Louisiana-heavy menu with etouffee costs more than a deli spread. We quote after we see the passenger count and the preferences, so nothing is guessed.

What is the lead time for private jet catering at Houma Terrebonne Airport?+

On a domestic leg the answer is simple: Houma kitchens work with local product, so there is no customs hold on the food. If you arrive from outside the country, the US food-import rules apply to what is already on board, and we plan the menu around that. Last-minute orders are handled; the earlier the file, the more choice you get.

What do customs require for catering at Houma Terrebonne?+

If you land at Houma from abroad, the plane's galley contents are what customs look at. We supply catering that is bought and packed in Louisiana, sized for your aircraft, with the packaging marked clearly. Ask us and we confirm what to declare for your type.

Can you bring food on board a private jet at Houma, or must it come from catering?+

Your own food, your own risk: when thunderstorms or hurricane season hold a Houma departure, a home-made lunch spends hours in a warm cabin. We pack and hand over at your FBO, and if the flight waits we adjust. Call or email, day or night.

Is catering part of a charter into Houma?+

No, catering stays outside a private jet charter. At Houma we take the outbound order and, if you want it, the return-leg order in one file, each one clearly labelled and invoiced as its own order.
