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 Ginbata table, packed for private jet catering

Western Australia gives a private jet menu at Ginbata Airport its character: seafood from the west coast, beef and lamb from the pastoral country, and fruit that follows the season. We build the inflight menu around what is genuinely good in {Region}, not a generic list. Western Australia rock lobster, when in season, travels well chilled and is sent as a cold platter, with lemon and dressing packed apart. Local specialities from the cattle stations suit a hot plate that finishes in the galley oven, sauce apart.

The private jet food we pack for Ginbata is shaped by Western Australia and by the strip itself. A private jet menu for GBW leans on local specialities: marron and rock lobster in season, grass-fed lamb, Margaret River style cheeses and Swan Valley fruit. Private jet platters travel chilled and are re-plated cold at altitude. Gourmet inflight meals for the hot course go out ready for a small oven, and private jet snacks, such as native-spiced nuts and dried fruit, fill the gaps. Ginbata's remoteness means we pack for the inflight menu you will use, not the one you might.

Business aviationOur core

VIP flight and private jet catering at Ginbata Airport (YGIA)

Who flies into GBW? Executives visiting stations and resource projects, often on one leg. For that, business jet catering is a bespoke menu written by a private jet chef: corporate jet catering with a chilled lobster course, VIP flight catering with a lamb main, and luxury inflight catering that survives a small galley. Charter flight catering is a separate order from the flight.

Inflight catering for government and royal flights at Ginbata Airport

Government flight catering at Ginbata, including head of state flight catering, runs through protocol before anything is cooked. VIP aviation catering for a state visit aircraft catering order means a named team, traceability and discretion, which changes how the order is written and handed over at YGIA.

About the airportYGIA / GBW

About Ginbata Airport: business aviation and airport catering

YGIA is a small general aviation strip in the Western Australia interior. Airport catering at Ginbata is planned around quiet traffic, remote access and the weather window, with FBO services and ground handling services kept simple.

Business aviation

Ginbata is not a business aviation hub in the busy sense, but business aviation catering is still needed here. Inflight catering and in-flight catering for the cabin, aviation catering for the galley, executive jet catering for the principals, diplomatic flight catering when protocol applies and cabin crew meals for the team are all provided at YGIA, on request.

Customs & food import

Importing food into Australia means biosecurity checks, and YGIA is no different. We advise on declaring perishables and keep quantities realistic so little is discarded at Ginbata.

★★★★★BUSINESS JET
“Getting a breakfast basket with individual preserves ready for 3 guests at YGIA required an order that accounted for several individual meal preferences. This experience of private jet catering gave us a useful reference for managing final order confirmation on another departure. The Galley Girls confirmed the handover contact and identified the side dishes, making the catering delivery easier for our team to track. Knowing where the main courses were packed meant the crew could begin the relevant checks as soon as the order arrived.”

★★★★★BUSINESS JET
“The 5 passenger portions of fresh fruit and breakfast pastries were the easy part; managing a short ground stop at GBW took more planning. The confirmation from The Galley Girls showed the crew provisions clearly enough for us to check the planned service quantities. There was enough information about the desserts to brief the crew without making assumptions about what had been ordered. The order made private jet catering services feel manageable because the cabin service sequence had been considered beforehand.”
Victoria A. | FBO operator

★★★★★GOVERNMENT
“Keeping the galley organised at Ginbata Airport meant planning a mezze selection with flatbreads for 12 guests with a family lunch request in mind. I asked The Galley Girls for the sauces in clearly marked packs, with garnishes supplied separately for plating on board. The snack boxes stayed together in one group, so another crew member could follow the same plating sequence. I want a private jet catering company to understand meal organisation, and this order gave us a useful starting point.”

Ginbata: the questionsAsked by crews
How much does private jet catering cost at Ginbata Airport?+

What drives how much private jet catering costs at Ginbata is the special-meal content: kosher sealed meals, vegan dishes, a child's menu and any allergen-free tray are each priced as their own items. Tell us who is on board and what they cannot eat, and we quote that, nothing more.

What is the lead time for private jet catering at Ginbata?+

For Ginbata, one local product often decides the menu: pepperberry, lemon myrtle or the west-coast crustaceans. The lead time is whatever it takes to source that item properly, and last-minute orders are handled with an alternative if it is out of season.

What do customs require for inflight catering into Ginbata?+

Australian customs treat food seriously, and Western Australia's weather windows can shift a departure at Ginbata. We therefore pack tight and clearly label what is perishable so your crew can declare it correctly.

Can you bring food of your own onto the aircraft at Ginbata?+

On a small strip like Ginbata, airside access is controlled by the handling agent, so private food must be cleared before it goes out to the aircraft. We can work with what you carry, or pack the whole order so it arrives sealed.

Is catering part of a charter into Ginbata?+

Catering is not part of a private jet charter into Ginbata. It is a separate order with its own invoice. If the passenger count shifts late, the order shifts with it, and last-minute changes are handled.
