Catering to your aircraft in Norfolk.
Norfolk is a quiet field with a practical rhythm: short passenger lists, light jets, plain good food. Our former VIP flight attendants pack for that galley and meet you at the FBO. Call or email, 24/7.
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.
Fourteen years on VIP and head-of-state cabins. Can plate for twelve in a G650 galley and still land it hot.
The one who reads every diet card twice. If it says no cross-contact, it means no cross-contact.
Answers at 5 a.m. when the leg moved overnight. Same-day swaps are her love language.
Nebraska eats beef, and Norfolk is no exception: a private jet menu for KOFK can lean on Nebraska-raised steak, sliced cold for a platter or sent hot with the sauce in its own pot. Our inflight menu for the Nebraska plains also draws on sweet corn in season, on runza-style bread pockets that travel well in a drawer, and on the kind of plain, generous private jet food that Midwestern passengers actually finish. These local specialities are the backbone of the Norfolk table, and each one is packed for the galley it will meet: private jet platters for the cabin, gourmet inflight meals for the main service, private jet snacks for the leg home. The notes below say how each dish finishes on board.
Tail, pax, diets, timing. One message — no portal, no quote form. Answered at any hour, by a flight attendant.
Leak-proof boxes, marked by guest and restriction, with reheating times written on the lid.
Two minutes out of the drawer. Whatever you ordered for the crew comes in the same delivery, and one clean invoice follows.
Karl Stefan Memorial sits on the Nebraska plains at 1,573 ft, a field where corporate crews tend to land with a short passenger list and a galley that was provisioned somewhere else. Private jet catering here is built around that reality: plated dishes cooked and packed for the galley you have, handed over at the FBO. Our former VIP flight attendants treat inflight catering and in-flight catering as one job, and the same hands run aviation catering, business aviation catering and executive jet catering orders for Norfolk. Diplomatic flight catering and cabin crew meals follow the same route to the aircraft, on request and invoiced like the rest.
A typical business jet catering order at KOFK is a flight department moving a few people out of Norfolk, Nebraska. Corporate jet catering here means plated dishes sized for a compact galley, with a private jet chef writing a bespoke menu around Nebraska beef and seasonal produce. VIP flight catering and charter flight catering follow the same route, and luxury inflight catering is simply the same care at higher spec.
When an official party uses Karl Stefan Memorial, the order starts with who is travelling and what is cleared. Government flight catering, head of state flight catering, VIP aviation catering and state visit aircraft catering are handled by a named team, with ingredients traced and labels kept discreet.
Dietary needs at KOFK start with the Nebraska kitchen: wheat, dairy and beef are everywhere, so allergens are managed by separate boards and sealed boxes. Kosher, halal, vegan and gluten free special meals, allergen free dishes and kids meals are all available on request.
A sheet per guest. Separate boards, separate boxes.
Sealed, certificate in the same box.
Their own menu, nothing to cut at altitude.
Vegan, low-carb, light — composed, never compromised.
For OFK crews we pack crew meals on request, billed as a normal line. Flight crew meals travel in crew meal boxes, pilot meals can differ by seat, and cockpit meals are made to eat during a short turn. Crew catering stays separate from guest service, with different meals for pilots when policy requires it.
FBO catering at Karl Stefan Memorial is handed over at the aircraft or the general aviation terminal, whichever your handling agent confirms. Catering delivery to the FBO at Norfolk is coordinated for your slot, and ground handling catering stays on the same schedule as the rest of the trip. Handling agent catering at KOFK means your agent knows what is coming and where it lands.
Aircraft provisioning at KOFK changes with the airframe. Smaller jets are loaded by hand for airside catering delivery; for heavier cabins we confirm whether a high loader is needed, and galley catering is sized to the type.

Whichever terminal you park at, handover is at the aircraft, on your slot.

Karl Stefan Memorial serves Norfolk, Nebraska, as a general aviation airfield with the runway and terminal that corporate flights need. Airport catering here stays small and direct: the FBO and the handling agent are both on the field, and the FBO services and ground handling services around them keep a delivery simple to arrange.
KOFK works as a business aviation hub in miniature, and each order is written per trip. Inflight catering and in-flight catering follow the galley of the aircraft on the ramp. Aviation catering and business aviation catering suit flight departments, executive jet catering suits individual guests, diplomatic flight catering suits official parties, and cabin crew meals and crew meals are added on request. Whatever the trip, FBO services and ground handling services on the field decide where each tray changes hands.
US food-import rules apply to any international arrival at KOFK: meat, fruit and dairy carried in from abroad are restricted. The practical answer is to order in Norfolk, so the galley is stocked with domestic product. Your handling agent and the FBO services team can confirm what the ground handling services on the field will accept, and we pack to that.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“Before our guests boarded at KOFK, we needed a cheese board and savoury canapés divided into 12 portions suitable for a late menu amendment. The order made private jet catering services feel manageable because the galley preparation had been considered beforehand. The starters came from The Galley Girls in divided catering boxes, with a packing list that matched the contents. I could hand the sandwiches to a colleague with a short explanation instead of unpacking the whole order.”
“We kept the passenger brief simple at OFK: fresh fruit and breakfast pastries for 9 guests, organised with limited fridge space in mind. I want a private jet catering company to understand crew briefing, and this order gave us a useful starting point. Instead of asking us to improvise, The Galley Girls explained how the snack boxes could be arranged during service. We could finish the crew provisions as each guest was ready, rather than laying everything out at once.”
“Packing a light pasta dish with grilled vegetables for 4 passengers at Karl Stefan Memorial Airport needed careful thought, especially given a small galley worktop. We changed the quantities of sauces, and The Galley Girls reflected the request in the final packing list. The crew provisions remained as originally requested, which was reassuring when we checked the latest version with operations. When comparing private jet catering companies, I would look closely at written menu details after this experience.”
A steak dinner out of OFK and a bread-and-salad lunch are priced very differently, and that is the honest answer to what private jet catering costs here. Tell us what you want on board, and we give you the figure for exactly that.
What shapes lead time here is customs, not the airport. Food entering the United States from abroad is controlled, so we build your menu from local Nebraska product and avoid anything that would be held. Late changes are accepted.
Customs at OFK care about meat, fruit and dairy carried in from abroad, and your galley care about space. A compact jet means fewer components and sauce in a pot; a larger one can take a full hot service.
Passengers sometimes bring their own, but winter weather on the plains can push a departure and spoil what was packed too soon. We pack for your slot and adjust if the window moves.
No. Charter and catering are two bills. We can set up the way back from Norfolk, ordering the return-leg dishes now so the galley is ready when you turn around.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
