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 Red Bluff brings to your in-flight catering (RBL)

California is the region that matters when you write a private jet menu for Red Bluff, and the northern end of the Sacramento Valley is farm country: walnuts, almonds, olives, pears and citrus within the county and its neighbours. Those are the local specialities that actually ride well in a galley.

For an inflight menu from here, think in layers. Cold first: private jet platters of fruit, cheese and charcuterie, a grain salad with roasted vegetables, a poke-style plate for a light lunch. Then a hot main that finishes in the oven, such as tri-tip with its jus apart or lemon-herb chicken with vegetables.

Private jet food from Tehama County is honest rather than fussy. Gourmet inflight meals come from a good kitchen, and private jet snacks carry the local note: roasted almonds, dried figs, olive tapenade with crackers. Everything for Red Bluff is packed to be re-plated by the crew, sauces apart, cold items marked for the drawer.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Red Bluff Municipal Airport (KRBL)

Red Bluff Municipal sits at 352 feet on the floor of the Sacramento Valley, a small Tehama County field where summer heat on the apron and almond-orchard country around it shape what a galley can carry. Private jet catering here is planned around the hot afternoons, the light jets and turboprops that use the field, and an apron with no terminal restaurant to fall back on. Whether the order is inflight catering for a short hop, in-flight catering for a longer leg north or south, aviation catering for a flight department, business aviation catering for a corporate crew, executive jet catering for a charter, diplomatic flight catering for a protocol movement or cabin crew meals for the rotation, it is written for the galley you actually have.

Business aviationOur core

Private jet catering for business flights from Red Bluff (KRBL)

Business jet catering at KRBL is usually a short brief: a corporate jet or charter flight stops at Red Bluff Municipal, a handful of passengers, a galley with one oven. We offer VIP flight catering and charter flight catering built around that, with luxury inflight catering touches from valley produce. A private jet chef can adapt a bespoke menu to the cabin, and corporate jet catering for repeat flights is easy to plan once we know the tail.

State & royalDiscretion, protocol

Diplomatic and state visit aviation catering in Red Bluff (KRBL)

Government flight catering at Red Bluff Municipal is rare but possible, and it follows protocol: the menu is cleared by the delegation's office, labels carry seat numbers only, and an assigned contact handles the order. Head of state flight catering and VIP aviation catering use the same discipline, as does state visit aircraft catering when an aircraft is positioned through northern California.

Special meals

Halal, kosher and kids meals: inflight catering at Red Bluff Municipal Airport (RBL)

A small field like Red Bluff Municipal does not stock special meals on the shelf, so we prepare them for the order: kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free, allergen free and kids meals, each in its own container with a seat number on the label, never a name. The valley's kitchens use a lot of nuts and wheat, so we say up front where tree nuts or gluten could hide and work around them. Special meals for a KRBL departure are confirmed with the passenger list before anything is cooked.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meals for pilots and cabin crew at Red Bluff Municipal Airport (RBL)

When the crew is working a leg through KRBL, crew meals are a separate line on the order, not part of the passenger menu. Flight crew meals and pilot meals go into labelled crew meal boxes; cockpit meals are simple and quick to eat. Crew catering for a rotation can include different meals for pilots, requested and invoiced like the rest.

DeliveryEvery FBO

Airport catering delivered to the FBO at Red Bluff Municipal Airport (KRBL)

At Red Bluff Municipal, FBO catering is handed over where the aircraft is parked. Catering delivery to the FBO goes through the general aviation terminal and ground handling catering is arranged with your handling agent, who confirms airside access and the tail. We keep handling agent catering simple: one point of contact, one slot.

High loaderLarge cabins, bizliners

Large cabin jet catering with a high loader at Red Bluff Municipal Airport (RBL)

Red Bluff handles light and midsize business aircraft, so galley catering here is usually carried up the airstair rather than lifted by a high loader. If a larger aircraft is expected, tell us the type and we will say what the door sill needs. Airside catering delivery at KRBL goes through the FBO and your handling agent, and aircraft provisioning is counted against the galley's drawers and ovens, not the size of the menu.

About the airportKRBL / RBL

General aviation and airport catering at Red Bluff Municipal Airport (RBL)

KRBL is a general aviation airport in Red Bluff, California, a small field with a modest terminal and an FBO that receives visiting aircraft. FBO services and ground handling services are what the field offers: fuel, parking, a handling agent at the door. Airport catering is not something the field provides, which is why an order delivered to the aircraft matters here.

Business aviation

Red Bluff is not a business aviation hub; it is a stop on a Sacramento Valley route, used by corporate, charter and positioning flights that come and go with the season. Inflight catering and in-flight catering are planned for a small galley and a handful of seats. Aviation catering and business aviation catering get ordered for the flights that do land, with executive jet catering, diplomatic flight catering and cabin crew meals added when the trip calls for them. Crew meals follow on request, invoiced like the rest.

Customs & food import

A flight arriving in California from abroad declares its food at the first port of entry, and agricultural items such as fresh fruit, meat and dairy are where customs usually objects. Red Bluff is a general aviation field, so international clearance is normally handled at another airport, and the FBO services here do not replace it. We pack with that in mind and advise on routing before anything is cooked.

★★★★★LARGE CABIN

“Having 12 guests request roasted vegetable bowls with separate dressings at KRBL meant planning the portions carefully while accounting for an evening cabin service. With several people involved, The Galley Girls kept the breakfast portions and delivery arrangements together in a concise order update. The desserts went straight to the right colleague instead of circulating between several people during the turnaround. Our brief for private jet menu was met with a sensible plan for written menu details.”

★★★★★BUSINESS JET

“Our priority at RBL was herb chicken with a quinoa salad for 10 passengers, with a family lunch request shaping the service plan. The Galley Girls grouped the salads by service, which was more useful to us than simply receiving a list of dishes. Our colleague could take over the sandwiches without asking where every component had been placed during preparation. I want a private jet chef to understand meal organisation, and this order gave us a useful starting point.”

★★★★★BUSINESS JET

“Food presentation mattered to our 2 guests, but a tight boarding window also had to be considered when organising a cold lunch with cheese and fruit at Red Bluff Municipal Airport. We discussed the dimensions before confirming; The Galley Girls grouped the breakfast portions into sealed meal containers that were easy to handle. The order made in flight catering feel manageable because the packing arrangement had been considered beforehand. The crew provisions were easy to locate, leaving the crew free to focus on the remaining cabin preparation.”

Asked before every KRBL slotAsked by crews

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

Costs here track the products, so seasonal valley fruit and local nuts can sit on the cheaper side while seafood and prime beef sit higher. For a return leg from Red Bluff we quote the whole trip together, and private jet catering costs are written out line by line.

What is the lead time for catering at Red Bluff Municipal, especially for a night departure or an early slot?+

Early slots mean the handover happens before the day warms up, which suits cold items. For lead time at Red Bluff Municipal, tell us the departure window, the tail and the dietary needs, and we work backwards. Same-day orders are treated as normal business.

Are there customs rules for catering at Red Bluff, and how do the handling agent and airside access work?+

At Red Bluff the handling agent is your contact for gate or ramp access, and customs only enters when an aircraft comes from abroad. California is strict about agricultural produce, so we keep fresh fruit out of any flight leaving for another country. Tell us the routing and we pack to suit.

Can you bring food on board for a short repositioning flight with an empty cabin out of Red Bluff?+

Nothing stops you carrying your own sandwiches on board an empty positioning leg from Red Bluff. Where it gets awkward is storage and the walk to a shop: a small field offers little. Cockpit meals ordered from us are packed to be eaten one-handed.

Is catering part of a charter into Red Bluff, for example on a long leg with two services on board?+

Not automatically. A private jet charter contract rarely includes catering, so you order and pay for it separately. Two services on a long leg mean two sets of trays and sometimes two oven runs, which the galley has to accommodate.
