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

Regional dishes of Waycross for jet catering at AYS

Georgia gives a private jet menu at Waycross its character. Local specialities here are Vidalia onions, Georgia peaches, pecans, boiled peanuts, Brunswick stew and the shrimp that come up from the coast. We build a private jet menu around what is in season in Georgia and write the inflight menu so each dish survives a galley.

Private jet platters from Waycross lean on cold, sliceable food: pimento cheese with benne crackers, smoked turkey and peach chutney, pecan-crusted chicken, sweet tea-brined fruit. Gourmet inflight meals are plated at altitude from components packed in the kitchen, and private jet snacks run to pecan pralines, spiced pecans and salted caramel popcorn.

Private jet food from this part of Georgia is Southern, and local specialities travel well when you plan the finish: the stew in a sealed container for the oven, the biscuits wrapped, the sauce in its own pot. Tell us the aircraft and the passengers and we write the Georgia menu to fit the galley at KAYS.

FBO catering at Waycross Ware County Airport (AYS): delivery to your aircraft

At Waycross Ware County your FBO receives the order and your handling agent takes it to the aircraft. FBO catering and catering delivery to the general aviation terminal are arranged in advance; ground handling catering and handling agent catering are one conversation.

Aircraft provisioning and airport catering at Waycross Ware County Airport (KAYS)

The size of the cabin decides how the galley gets loaded at KAYS. A light jet or turboprop at KAYS is usually loaded by hand through the main door, while a larger cabin may need a high loader at the door. We tell you which galley catering format fits, and airside catering delivery is arranged with your handling agent so aircraft provisioning happens at the aircraft without surprises.

About the airportKAYS / AYS

About Waycross Ware County Airport (AYS): airport catering for business aviation

Waycross Ware County Airport serves Ware County in southeast Georgia, a general aviation field with a single runway and a small terminal. Airport catering at AYS is organised around the FBO, the ramp and the aircraft that actually land.

Business aviation

Business aviation at Waycross is quiet and practical. The field is a general aviation airport where FBO services and ground handling services are compact, and inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering are ordered like anywhere else. Business aviation catering and executive jet catering cover charter and corporate trips, diplomatic flight catering is handled on request, and cabin crew meals go with the cabin menu. As a business aviation hub it is small but useful.

Customs & food import

International arrivals into Waycross clear customs under US rules, and food import is restricted: fresh meat, dairy and produce from abroad are generally not permitted onto the aircraft. Domestic legs have no such limit, so we order locally in Georgia.

★★★★☆LIGHT JET
“Keeping the galley organised at Waycross Ware County Airport meant planning a charcuterie board and fresh bread for 2 guests with a changing departure schedule in mind. The order made vip inflight catering feel manageable because the crew briefing had been considered beforehand. We described our serving sequence to The Galley Girls and asked for the canapés to be packed accordingly. We left the breakfast portions stored until needed, which kept the first service manageable and reduced unnecessary handling.”

Citation CJ4
★★★★☆VIP AIRLINER
“Before our guests boarded at KAYS, we needed vegetable tartlets and a dessert selection divided into 4 portions suitable for several individual meal preferences. The galley preparation stood out more than any sales pitch about private jet catering. We changed the quantities of canapés, and The Galley Girls reflected the request in the final packing list. The breakfast portions remained as originally requested, which was reassuring when we checked the latest version with operations.”
Tiago P. | Chief cabin officer — BBJ

★★★★★BUSINESS JET
“One detail shaped our order at AYS: a short ground stop, alongside a request for smoked salmon bagels and sliced fruit for 11 passengers. The Galley Girls talked through the quantities of side dishes with us before confirmation, rather than leaving us to guess the portions. It was useful to see the sauces listed separately when checking how much space the complete order would require. I appreciated the emphasis on meal organisation throughout the private jet catering services arrangements.”

Waycross Ware County: the questionsAsked by crews
How much does private jet catering cost out of Waycross when a Vidalia onion dish goes on the menu?+

Costs vary with the local product you pick. At Waycross Ware County that might be Georgia peaches, pecans or Gulf shrimp, each priced on its own, and crew meals are a separate line.

What is the lead time for catering into Waycross, given food-import rules in the United States?+

The lead time depends on the menu more than the airport. Local Georgia items are straightforward to source for KAYS, and last-minute orders are handled; customs only matters for food that has to come in from outside the US.

Customs at KAYS: what changes with a Citation versus a larger cabin?+

If the tail is a light jet, we pack for a drawer and a warmer; a heavier aircraft can take hot service. Customs paperwork at AYS is handled by your handling agent and does not change our menu.

Can you bring food into Waycross yourself, and what about the summer thunderstorm window?+

Passengers can bring their own food. We'd note that Georgia's summer weather makes departures from AYS unpredictable, and ordered catering is packed to wait without losing quality.

Is catering part of a charter into Waycross, and what about the return leg?+

Catering stays outside the charter price, even for a trip into KAYS. The return leg is a separate order, and because the aircraft may sit a day in Georgia, we plan the return meals for a cold galley.
