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

Local specialities from Baltimore for your inflight catering

Maryland eats from the Chesapeake, and the private jet menu for Martin State follows it. Blue crab is the signature: lump crab cakes, crab soup, steamed crab in season. A private jet menu built on local specialities travels well when the crab cake is baked rather than fried and the remoulade rides in its own pot.

Inflight menu choices from Baltimore also include Maryland oysters, rockfish (striped bass) in the cooler months, and Smith Island cake, the layered state dessert. Private jet food from this region works because most of it is served cold or finishes in a small oven, so the galley you actually have decides the plate.

Private jet platters for Maryland lean on the Bay: chilled shrimp, cured meats from Baltimore's old market halls, Berger cookies and Old Bay-dusted snacks. Gourmet inflight meals, private jet snacks and local specialities from Maryland can be mixed on one order, packed by seat and by restriction.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Martin State Airport (KMTN)

Martin State sits on the Chesapeake shore at 21 feet of elevation, a general aviation field where Baltimore corporate flights park away from the airline crowds. Private jet catering here follows the Bay: crab in season, oysters, and a galley plan built for the aircraft that actually lands. Inflight catering and aviation catering arrive with the same hand-over at the FBO, whether it is business aviation catering for a charter or executive jet catering for a flight department. For diplomatic flight catering, the menu is cleared in advance, and cabin crew meals are packed alongside the passenger service.

Business aviationOur core

Business aviation catering at Martin State Airport (MTN)

Martin State sees corporate and charter traffic in light and midsize jets, so business jet catering here is usually a compact order with a clear galley plan. Corporate jet catering for a flight department, VIP flight catering for an executive, charter flight catering for a weekend trip: each starts with the headcount and the aircraft. Luxury inflight catering means Chesapeake crab, rockfish or a cold platter, and our private jet chef writes a bespoke menu to the seats on board.

State visit and VIP aviation catering at Martin State Airport

Special meals & dietary requirements: in-flight catering at Martin State Airport

Special meals at Martin State start in a separate prep area, not a label. Baltimore's Bay cooking puts shellfish, Old Bay and butter on a lot of plates, so the allergen free procedure matters here: shellfish and wheat are separated at the board, sealed, and marked by seat number. Kosher and halal orders are sourced and sealed; vegan and gluten free plates are built from scratch rather than adapted. Kids meals are available too, and anything unusual is cleared with you before cooking.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meals and cockpit meals in Baltimore (KMTN)

When the aircraft sits at Martin State, the crew still has to eat. Crew meals are a request on the order, sealed and labelled, not an automatic extra. Flight crew meals and pilot meals are packed in boxes that fit the jumpseat routine, and cockpit meals are eaten one-handed if they have to be. Crew catering stays apart from guest trays. Crew meal boxes are also handed over at the aircraft, and different meals for pilots are set when the operator wants them. Cabin crew meals follow the same rule: on request, invoiced.

Airport catering at the FBO or general aviation terminal, Martin State Airport

FBO catering at Martin State means the order goes to the FBO or straight to the aircraft, depending on your slot. Catering delivery to the FBO is arranged with your handling agent; the general aviation terminal is the usual handover point for corporate jets. Ground handling catering and handling agent catering follow the same procedure: the trays are handed to someone who signs for them, then loaded.

High loaderLarge cabins, bizliners

Large cabin jet catering with a high loader at Martin State Airport (MTN)

Martin State is a general aviation field, so most flights are light and midsize jets whose galley catering goes up by hand through the door. When a larger airframe lands, galley catering moves on a high loader; tell us the type and we plan airside catering delivery and aircraft provisioning around its door height and galley layout. Where the aircraft cannot take a cart, we pack for the crew to carry.

About the airportKMTN / MTN

About Martin State Airport: business aviation and airport catering

Martin State Airport is a general aviation field on the Chesapeake side of Baltimore, 21 feet above sea level, and a quiet business aviation hub for corporate and government flights. Airport catering here slots into a simple routine: FBO services, ground handling services and easy ramp access. For crews used to busier fields, KMTN is a calm place to take on a galley.

Business aviation

Martin State works as a business aviation hub shaped by Baltimore's corporate and government traffic and by the Bay. Inflight catering and in-flight catering here mean crab in summer and rockfish in winter, and aviation catering is ordered by tail and slot. Business aviation catering for flight departments, executive jet catering for owners and diplomatic flight catering for delegations all follow one routine. Cabin crew meals and crew meals are packed with the passenger service, on request.

Customs & food import

For international arrivals at a business aviation hub like KMTN, customs takes the lead on any food carried aboard. United States rules on meat, fruit and dairy are strict, so local catering sidesteps the issue. Plan your next service from Maryland product, and declare anything left from the inbound leg.

★★★★★LARGE CABIN
“Breakfast was already sorted; at Martin State Airport, the next request was vegetable tartlets and a dessert selection for 4 guests, with a small galley worktop to work around. Our request to The Galley Girls focused on the starters, with enough detail to distinguish passenger portions from additional provisions. My main takeaway from this airline catering order was the practical approach to cabin service sequence. There was enough information about the breakfast portions to brief the crew without making assumptions about what had been ordered.”

★★★★★LARGE CABIN
“The 4 passenger portions of herb chicken with a quinoa salad were the easy part; managing several individual meal preferences at KMTN took more planning. For our team, the strongest part of their crew meals was how they handled portion planning. The side dishes from The Galley Girls were organised around the cabin plan, with the later service items kept apart. We left the snack boxes stored until needed, which kept the first service manageable and reduced unnecessary handling.”

★★★★★CREW MEALS
“Clear quantities were essential at MTN: we had 12 passengers expecting avocado toast components and breakfast fruit and were working around a changing departure schedule. This experience of FBO catering gave us a useful reference for managing written menu details on another departure. Instead of asking us to improvise, The Galley Girls explained how the side dishes could be arranged during service. It made a difference to have the fruit plates ready without cluttering the galley work area during preparation.”

Baltimore in five questionsAsked by crews
How much does private jet catering cost for a delegation or government flight into Martin State?+

For a government or delegation flight at KMTN, private jet catering cost is built from the menu and the paperwork around it: protocol clearance, traceability, dedicated packing. Rockfish in winter and crab in summer move the figure too. Send the brief and we price it.

What lead time do we need for a kosher, halal or allergen special meal at MTN?+

For a child's meal or an allergen request, the simplest route is to give us the restriction with the booking. Shellfish is everywhere in Baltimore cooking, so we separate it. Last-minute orders are handled here.

What about customs for crew waiting on the ground at Martin State?+

Customs at MTN applies to inbound food, so anything left over from an international leg may be taken at the ramp. We plan the next service from local product, and crew meals come sealed for the pilots on duty.

Can you bring food of your own for a short turnaround at Martin State?+

Bring food if you like for a domestic flight; for international, customs may step in. For a quick departure slot at KMTN, we pack to the galley, so nothing needs assembling at the aircraft.

Is catering part of a charter into Baltimore when a local product goes on the menu?+

No: a private jet charter does not include food. If Baltimore's blue crab is what you want on board, add it to a catering order with the tail and slot.
