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

The Bathurst table, packed for private jet catering

Bathurst sits in the Central Tablelands of New South Wales, an orchard and pastoral district, and the private jet menu for YBTH draws on it. Local specialities here start with high-country lamb and beef from the surrounding grazing country, slow-cooked and packed to survive a galley with a single oven. The inflight menu leans on stone fruit, apples and pears from the district's orchards when they are in season, and on cool-climate cheeses and breads that travel without fuss.

Private jet food at Bathurst is shaped by cold mornings and a farming region. We pack lamb shoulder with the sauce in its own pot, root vegetables that hold their texture when finished in the oven, and sweet things built on orchard fruit. Private jet platters carry regional cheeses, cured meats and seasonal fruit; gourmet inflight meals are plated for re-plating on board; private jet snacks cover the long ground wait before a race-week departure. These are the local specialities of the New South Wales tablelands, packed for the galley.

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

Frost on the tarmac at first light is normal at Bathurst, and so is a ramp that turns busy when Mount Panorama events bring in visiting aircraft. Private jet catering for BHS starts from the tail, the galley and the seat plan, not from a fixed list. We handle inflight catering and in-flight catering for the leg ahead, aviation catering for a tablelands overnight, and business aviation catering for corporate trips into central New South Wales. Executive jet catering is written around your cabin; diplomatic flight catering follows protocol; cabin crew meals are available on request, invoiced as a normal line.

Business aviationOur core

Private jet catering for business flights from Bathurst (YBTH)

Business jet catering at Bathurst is usually a corporate group heading to or from central New South Wales, sometimes for a race-week event or a regional meeting. Corporate jet catering here follows the aircraft: a light jet gets cold, tidy packs, a larger cabin takes a hot main. VIP flight catering and charter flight catering are written to your passengers, with luxury inflight catering for the clients who expect it. A private jet chef builds the bespoke menu around your seat plan and your galley.

Special meals

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

At Bathurst the special meals are cooked on separate boards and packed in separate boxes, because the allergen that hides in a tablelands kitchen is usually a sauce or a pastry. Kosher, halal, vegan and gluten free dishes are worked out against the aircraft's galley, with allergen free preparation written on the order and kids meals scaled to the ages on board. Special meals are labelled by seat, never by name, so the cabin crew serving them know exactly which tray is which.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meal boxes and crew meals at Bathurst Airport

A rotation that lands at YBTH may sit on the ground through a cold tablelands night, so crew meals are ordered on request and invoiced like the rest of the order. A rotation that lands at YBTH may sit on the ground through a cold night, so flight crew meals are packed to eat when it suits the crew. Pilot meals travel in separate boxes, crew catering follows the operator's policy, and cockpit meals are easy to eat with one hand. Crew meal boxes are labelled by role and different meals for pilots are available when the captain and first officer should not share a dish. Cabin crew meals are the same service, ordered with the trip.

DeliveryEvery FBO

FBO catering and handling agent delivery at Bathurst Airport

At YBTH we hand the order to the FBO or your handling agent, who take it to the aircraft. FBO catering, catering delivery to the FBO and ground handling catering all follow the same route, and the general aviation terminal is the contact point. Handling agent catering means one name on the ramp for each trip.

High loaderLarge cabins, bizliners

Aircraft provisioning and airport catering at Bathurst Airport (YBTH)

Whether the food reaches the cabin by hand or by lift at YBTH depends on the aircraft type. A light jet is loaded by hand at the door, while a larger cabin may need a high loader to bring galley catering up to the main door. Airside catering delivery is arranged with your handling agent, and aircraft provisioning follows the galley layout you give us: oven or no oven, drawers, ice, trolley. Send the tail and we confirm the loading method for that aircraft.

About the airportYBTH / BHS

Airport catering at Bathurst Airport (YBTH)

Bathurst Airport serves the Central Tablelands of New South Wales from a field at 2,435 ft. Airport catering here is simple in structure: general aviation traffic, a terminal for private and charter flights, and a ramp that works with FBO services and ground handling services as needed.

Business aviation

Business aviation at Bathurst peaks around race events and quiets between them. As a business aviation hub for the tablelands it handles corporate and private flights, with executive jet catering and business aviation catering ordered per trip. Inflight catering and in-flight catering follow the leg length, aviation catering covers crew overnights, diplomatic flight catering is cleared by protocol, and cabin crew meals can be added on request.

Customs & food import

Australia applies strict biosecurity rules to food entering the country, covering meat, dairy, fruit and plant material. Leftover catering from an overseas leg must be declared or disposed of, so we pack to need and advise on what to declare at BHS.

★★★★★VIP AIRLINER

“Packing smoked salmon bagels and sliced fruit for 10 passengers at Bathurst Airport needed careful thought, especially given a changing departure schedule. Our request to The Galley Girls focused on the canapés, with enough detail to distinguish passenger portions from additional provisions. We also checked the snack boxes before approval, which helped avoid a second round of questions later in the preparation. The storage requirements stood out more than any sales pitch about business aviation catering.”

★★★★★CHARTER

“It was the packing plan I cared about at YBTH, with 11 servings of a charcuterie board and fresh bread and a late menu amendment to consider. The crew provisions came from The Galley Girls in sealed meal containers, with a packing list that matched the contents. For our team, the strongest part of their jet catering was how they handled packing arrangement. The starters were easy to locate, leaving the crew free to focus on the remaining cabin preparation.”

★★★★★LIGHT JET

“Food presentation mattered to our 6 guests, but different crew meal preferences also had to be considered when organising a charcuterie board and fresh bread at BHS. For VIP flight catering, that attention to cabin service sequence made the order noticeably easier to manage. With several people involved, The Galley Girls kept the desserts and delivery arrangements together in a concise order update. Knowing where the canapés were packed meant the crew could begin the relevant checks as soon as the order arrived.”

Bathurst: the questionsAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost for a jet leaving Bathurst?+

Start from the aircraft type. A large-cabin jet into Bathurst can handle a plated hot service; a turboprop usually gets boxed cold food. Cost follows those choices, plus the produce you pick, and arrives as a separate catering invoice.

What lead time do you need for a night departure or early morning slot at Bathurst?+

A dawn slot or a late-night wheels-up is the same order with a different handover point and time of day. We agree the access with your handling agent and pack for the slot. Last-minute requests are handled; reach us day or night.

Do customs affect catering on a long leg from Bathurst with two services on board?+

For the return into Australia, assume that anything left from an overseas leg must be declared or discarded. A two-service flight from Bathurst is therefore packed to be eaten, not carried back.

Can you bring food on board for a special-meal request such as kosher, halal, allergen or child meals?+

Yes, a client's own meal can go on board, but crew must know where it sits and how it is heated. For kosher, halal, allergen or child meals we pack against the galley, sealed and labelled by seat, so there is no confusion at service.

Is catering part of a charter into Bathurst, and can regional produce go on the menu?+

Catering stays outside the aircraft price, so it is a separate order with a separate invoice, even on a private jet charter. Once ordered, we can build in Bathurst-area lamb, orchard fruit or regional cheeses, depending on the season.
