Private jet catering at Industrial Airpark (HBB), Hobbs, also listed as NM83

Catering to your aircraft in Hobbs.

A short ramp, a dry climate and small to midsize jets: that is Hobbs HBB. We pack what holds in a drawer, mark it by seat and hand it to the handling agent, so you re-plate rather than cook.

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

What Hobbs brings to your in-flight catering (HBB)

Hobbs sits in the Permian Basin corner of New Mexico, and the local table is Southwestern ranch and border cooking. A private jet menu for New Mexico starts with the chile: red or green, roasted, in a pot apart from the protein. Our inflight menu leans on what travels well in a galley, which makes local specialities easy to adapt. Private jet food from this region is robust: brisket, carne adovada, green chile stew, blue corn enchiladas, sopaipillas with honey. Private jet platters carry the cold side, with jicama, cheese and tortillas, and private jet snacks are piñon nuts, biscochitos and spiced pecans. Gourmet inflight meals here are about heat control: the chile is declared, labelled and served on the side so nobody on board is surprised.

For Hobbs and the wider New Mexico, the private jet menu is built around chile. Our inflight menu offers Hatch green chile, red chile sauce and slow-cooked beef, plated to travel. Local specialities such as carne adovada, posole and sopaipillas are packed for oven or cold service. Private jet food in this part of the Southwest is generous but simple, and it holds. Private jet platters cover cheeses, cured meats, roasted vegetables and tortillas; gourmet inflight meals add a hot main with the sauce in its own pot; private jet snacks are piñon, pecans and biscochitos. Everything is labelled by seat, with the chile level marked.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Industrial Airpark (HBB)

Industrial Airpark (HBB, also filed as NM83) is a working field in Lea County, where the wind and the dust set the tone more than any terminal. Private jet catering for Hobbs follows that: robust dishes that hold in a drawer, plated by you when the cabin is quiet. Inflight catering and in-flight catering orders here start with the type, the headcount and the slot. Aviation catering and business aviation catering use the same chain from order to apron; executive jet catering is a menu question, and diplomatic flight catering adds protocol to the brief. Cabin crew meals are a separate line on request, invoiced like the rest.

Business aviationOur core

VIP flight and private jet catering at Industrial Airpark (NM83)

Business jet catering at HBB is usually a day trip: executives, ranch owners or contractors going out and back. Corporate jet catering here is a hot main you finish in the oven and a cold platter you leave in the drawer. VIP flight catering and charter flight catering follow the same build, with a private jet chef writing a bespoke menu around the local table, from green chile to smoked brisket. Luxury inflight catering for Hobbs is about portions that hold, not ornament.

Inflight catering for government and royal flights at Industrial Airpark

Government flight catering through Hobbs is rare but real: delegations stopping for energy and oil business, state visit aircraft in transit. Head of state flight catering and VIP aviation catering here need a cleared menu before anything is cooked, a named team and a sealed handover. State visit aircraft catering is traceable, discreet and invoiced like any order.

At Hobbs, the allergen to watch is hidden in the local cooking: flour in chile sauces, lard in tortillas and beans, nuts in the desserts. Kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free, allergen free, kids meals and other special meals are written as a procedure: its own board, its own box, a seat number on the lid, and a card that matches the dietary file you send us.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Flight crew meals on request at Industrial Airpark

For crews waiting at Industrial Airpark, crew meals are a separate line on request, billed like the rest. Flight crew meals and pilot meals are built around what you can eat standing at the jumpseat: crew catering with a hot main and a cold side. Cockpit meals are boxed, crew meal boxes carry a seat or role label, and different meals for pilots mean the captain and first officer never share a dish. Cabin crew meals come with the same order.

DeliveryEvery FBO

FBO catering and handling agent delivery at Industrial Airpark

Industrial Airpark is a general aviation airport, so FBO catering is the normal route: we deliver to the FBO, your handling agent opens the gate and the order goes plane-side. Catering delivery to the general aviation terminal works for crews waiting inside. Ground handling catering and handling agent catering are one coordinated handover.

FBOHandling agentGround handlerGA terminal

High loaderLarge cabins, bizliners

Large cabin jet catering with a high loader at Industrial Airpark (HBB)

Industrial Airpark mostly sees light and midsize business jets, so galley catering is carried by hand or by small cart to the cabin door. For anything larger, tell us the type and we plan airside catering delivery around the door height and the galley layout, with a high loader arranged through your handling agent. Aircraft provisioning here is a question of the airframe, not the airport: ice, hot boxes and the drawer layout follow what the aircraft has.

About the airportHBB

About Industrial Airpark (HBB): airport catering for business aviation

Also listed as NM83.

Industrial Airpark (HBB, also filed as NM83) is the general aviation field for Hobbs, a Lea County city built on Permian Basin oil and gas. Business jets and turboprops use the quiet terminal and the long runway. Airport catering here is a plain order from one kitchen to one apron, and FBO services and ground handling services are what carry it from the handover to the cabin door.

Business aviation

Hobbs is a business aviation hub in miniature: company jets arrive for oilfield and ranch visits, then leave the same day. Inflight catering and in-flight catering are packed to survive a dusty ramp and a drawer. Aviation catering and business aviation catering follow the same chain as at any large airport, from order to FBO services and ground handling services at the aircraft. Executive jet catering is fitted to the cabin, diplomatic flight catering adds protocol to the brief, and cabin crew meals and crew meals sit on the order on request.

Customs & food import

Customs rules at Hobbs follow US federal practice: fresh meat, dairy and produce arriving from abroad are restricted. Catering cooked in the United States and loaded after clearance avoids the problem. If the aircraft comes in from outside the country, declare what is on board to your handling agent; FBO services and ground handling services at the field can walk you through the inspection.

★★★★★VIP AIRLINER

“Having 2 guests request yoghurt pots and fresh berries at Industrial Airpark meant planning the portions carefully while accounting for several individual meal preferences. I appreciated the emphasis on storage requirements throughout the airline catering arrangements. The Galley Girls kept the salads separate from the finishing elements, which gave us control over the final presentation. The crew provisions stayed together in one group, so another crew member could follow the same plating sequence.”

Aaron C. | Chief cabin officer — BBJ

★★★★★BUSINESS JET

“Before our guests boarded at Industrial Airpark, we needed a cold lunch with cheese and fruit divided into 7 portions suitable for a short ground stop. I appreciated the emphasis on cabin service sequence throughout the crew meals arrangements. The Galley Girls updated the fruit plates in the written order and sent back a confirmation that clearly showed our amendments. The side dishes remained as originally requested, which was reassuring when we checked the latest version with operations.”

Julia P. | VIP flight attendant

★★★★★ROYAL FLIGHT

“Choosing beef fillet with roasted potatoes for 10 people at HBB was straightforward; the challenge was making it work with a changing departure schedule. The snack boxes from The Galley Girls were organised around the cabin plan, with the later service items kept apart. The side dishes were reserved for the next stage, so the worktop stayed clear while we prepared the initial dishes. This experience of FBO catering gave us a useful reference for managing final order confirmation on another departure.”

Ordering for HBB, in shortAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost for a long leg out of Hobbs with two services on board?+

Think of two services as two separate orders sharing one labelled box. The first is a hot main from the oven, the second is a cold platter you plate yourself. Each has its own cost. A Hobbs order for a long leg is priced on that structure, then invoiced after the flight like the rest.

What is the lead time for private jet catering at Hobbs when the passenger count changes at the last minute?+

Late changes in passenger count do not break an order here. We pack in modules: trays by seat, a spare cold platter, sauce pots apart. When the number moves, we move one module. The lead time is what it takes to cook and pack that module, handled by phone or email.

What do customs require for catering on a government or delegation flight into Hobbs?+

On a state or delegation movement through Hobbs, the aircraft may be both an arrival and a departure for catering. We keep a clear line between what is declared on board and what is loaded after clearance. Menus are cleared by protocol first; only then is anything cooked.

Can you bring food from outside the order when a passenger needs a kosher, halal, allergen-free or child's meal?+

If a passenger has a medical or religious requirement, send us the file and we cook to it. Outside food can ride on board, but we cannot vouch for it. A sealed kosher dish, for example, stays sealed and goes on the tray untouched. A child's meal is packed in its own colour-marked box.

Is catering part of a charter into Hobbs when the crew is waiting on the ground for hours?+

Catering is a separate order from the charter, with its own invoice. A crew waiting on the ground at HBB is a good reason to add cockpit and cabin crew meals to the order, on request, in a box clearly marked CREW. The charter does not decide it; you do.
