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 Albany brings to your in-flight catering (ATO)

Southeast Ohio gives a private jet menu its character: Appalachian hills, small farms, and an old tradition of preserving and baking. Our inflight menu at Ohio University Airport (ATO) draws on local specialities of Albany and the wider Ohio table, built as private jet food that survives a light jet galley. Think Ohio-made cheeses, pawpaw in season, apple butter, sweet corn, and Cincinnati-style chili for the hot side. Private jet platters carry the cold items, gourmet inflight meals carry the cooked ones, and private jet snacks cover the cabin between services. Each local speciality is packed to match the galley on your type.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Ohio University Airport (KUNI)

Ohio University Airport sits on a 766-foot hilltop plateau in Albany, in the Appalachian foothills, and its quiet apron suits small cabins better than large ones. Private jet catering here is built for a light jet galley: cold platters, one oven, nothing that needs a proper kitchen aloft. For inflight catering and aviation catering at KUNI, we cook for the galley you actually have. Business aviation catering and executive jet catering run the same way, and diplomatic flight catering follows protocol. For the flight deck and cabin, cabin crew meals are an on-request line on the same invoice.

Business aviationOur core

Business jet & VIP jet catering at Ohio University Airport

A business jet into Albany usually carries four to eight people on a university or corporate errand. Business jet catering and corporate jet catering here favour a cold lunch and one hot entrée, with VIP flight catering available for visiting trustees and donors. Charter flight catering is ordered the same way. A private jet chef writes a bespoke menu around the aircraft type, and luxury inflight catering adds cheeses, orchard fruit and a sauce apart.

State & royalDiscretion, protocol

Head of state and government inflight catering at Ohio University Airport (ATO)

When a government aircraft reaches KUNI, the order is cleared by protocol first. Government flight catering and VIP aviation catering run with a named team and sealed packing. Head of state flight catering and state visit aircraft catering are handled the same way: traceable, quiet, and agreed before the slot.

Special meals & dietary requirements: in-flight catering at Ohio University Airport

Special meals at Ohio University Airport are a procedure, not a label. In Albany's Appalachian kitchens the hidden allergens are usually wheat in gravies and chili thickeners, dairy in the local cheeses, and tree nuts in the baked apple desserts. Kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free and allergen free orders are cooked and packed separately, with kids meals on request. Each tray is marked by seat number and restriction so the cabin crew serves the right plate.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meals & pilot meals at Ohio University Airport

Crew meals at Albany suit a quiet field where a pilot may wait on a university schedule. Flight crew meals are ordered on request and invoiced as a normal line. Pilot meals and cockpit meals travel as crew meal boxes, eaten from a lap, with different meals for pilots when the operator asks. Crew catering for cabin staff is packed separately.

DeliveryEvery FBO

Airport catering delivered to the FBO at Ohio University Airport (KUNI)

At KUNI, catering delivery to the FBO is the usual route. The general aviation terminal receives the order, and the handling agent carries it out. FBO catering, ground handling catering and handling agent catering are the same job described from three desks.

FBOHandling agentGround handlerGA terminal

High loaderLarge cabins, bizliners

High loader and aircraft provisioning: aviation catering at Ohio University Airport

Most traffic at KUNI is light and midsize jets, so galley catering usually travels in coolers and boxes carried to the aircraft door. When a larger type arrives, the aircraft dictates the loading: door height, galley layout and whether a high loader is needed. We confirm that with your handling agent before the slot, so airside catering delivery and aircraft provisioning fit the aircraft rather than the other way round.

About the airportKUNI / ATO

Aviation catering and business aviation at Ohio University Airport (ATO)

Also listed as UNI.

Ohio University Airport serves the university community and the surrounding Athens County. Airport catering here is aimed at light and midsize aircraft, with general aviation traffic handled through the FBO. Ground handling services and FBO services are modest and reliable.

Business aviation

Ohio University Airport is a business aviation hub only at graduation and football weekends. Then inflight catering and in-flight catering orders arrive for light jets. Aviation catering and business aviation catering stay simple, executive jet catering runs on a small menu, diplomatic flight catering needs protocol, and cabin crew meals are separate.

Customs & food import

The United States requires customs clearance for international arrivals, and food import rules restrict fresh produce and some meats. For domestic flights into Albany, there is no such check. We pack to the stricter rule when the aircraft arrives from abroad.

★★★★★VIP AIRLINER

“Getting a breakfast basket with individual preserves ready for 12 guests at ATO required an order that accounted for a revised passenger count. The Galley Girls understood why we wanted the starters readily accessible instead of spread across several different boxes. This experience of business jet catering gave us a useful reference for managing final order confirmation on another departure. We left the breakfast portions stored until needed, which kept the first service manageable and reduced unnecessary handling.”

★★★★★CREW MEALS

“Between cabin checks at Ohio University Airport, I coordinated poached fish with steamed rice for 3 guests and explained our concerns about several individual meal preferences. I appreciated the emphasis on packing arrangement throughout the business aviation catering arrangements. After a final adjustment to the side dishes, The Galley Girls gave us one revised order summary to work from. The note about the canapés was easy to spot, and we could brief the rest of the team quickly.”

★★★★★LIGHT JET

“Choosing vegetable tartlets and a dessert selection for 6 people at KUNI was straightforward; the challenge was making it work with an evening cabin service. This experience of jet catering gave us a useful reference for managing storage requirements on another departure. The Galley Girls talked through the quantities of side dishes with us before confirmation, rather than leaving us to guess the portions. We also checked the breakfast portions before approval, which helped avoid a second round of questions later in the preparation.”

Ordering for KUNI, in shortAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost for a return leg ordered from Albany?+

Pricing for the way back from KUNI follows what you choose: platters, cooked entrées, special meals. Pawpaw is seasonal and costs more than an apple tart in October. We quote the whole order, then invoice it as a separate line.

What is the lead time for a night or early morning departure from KUNI?+

Early morning at Ohio University Airport is quiet, which helps. Lead time is set by your slot and the dishes chosen, not a fixed rule. Last-minute orders are handled and we are reachable by phone or email day and night.

What do customs and airside access mean for catering at Ohio University Airport?+

For a flight into Albany from abroad, customs clearance covers the cabin and any food on board; US rules restrict fresh produce and some meats. The handling agent coordinates airside movements, and we pack accordingly.

Can you bring food on a short repositioning flight into Albany with an empty cabin?+

An empty-cabin leg into KUNI rarely needs a full menu. If you would rather not bring food, crew meals are available on request and invoiced as a normal line, like any other order.

Is catering part of a charter into Albany with two services on a long leg?+

No. The aircraft price does not cover food, so it is ordered and invoiced on its own. For a long flight out of KUNI with two services, we write one menu that splits across the leg: cold platters early, hot dishes later, each labelled by seat.
