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 Paraburdoo table, packed for private jet catering

Paraburdoo sits in the Pilbara region of Western Australia, an iron-ore country of red earth, spinifex and long days of dry heat. A private jet menu for Paraburdoo starts from that climate: what stays crisp at 40 degrees on the apron, and what the galley can finish once the doors close. Local specialities of Western Australia make good inflight menu material: Shark Bay and Exmouth prawns served chilled, Western Australian beef, kangaroo loin seared and sliced, and bush flavours like wattleseed and lemon myrtle. Our private jet food leans on those, with private jet platters of seafood and cured meats, gourmet inflight meals such as slow-cooked lamb shoulder, and private jet snacks like roasted macadamias and Margaret River cheese. Paraburdoo charters are often business crews returning to Perth, so we pack for a working lunch as much as a celebration.

Pilbara food has a few honest rules, and the Paraburdoo private jet menu follows them. Seafood from the north-west coast, beef and lamb from Western Australian farms, and fruit such as mango and watermelon in season travel well chilled. Local specialities in Western Australia include barramundi, kangaroo and native herbs, which we adapt for the galley: seared and sliced, sauce in a separate pot, finished in your oven. Expect private jet platters for the cabin, gourmet inflight meals for the longer leg, and private jet snacks for the crew. The inflight menu and the private jet food are chosen with the dry climate in mind, so nothing wilts before it reaches the seat.

Our aviation catering team of ex-VIP crew writes business aviation catering and executive jet catering around the Pilbara mining circuit, and the same discipline applies to a diplomatic flight catering brief.

Business aviationOur core

Business jet catering at Paraburdoo Airport for VIP flights

A typical Paraburdoo brief is a business jet bringing executives to the Pilbara and heading back to Perth. Business jet catering here is a working lunch: chilled platters, one hot dish for the oven, and nothing that needs a sauce poured mid-turbulence. Corporate jet catering and VIP flight catering follow the same discipline, and charter flight catering adapts to the galley on the day. For luxury inflight catering our private jet chef writes a bespoke menu around Western Australian produce, chosen for the aircraft's oven and drawer.

Kosher and halal requests are sourced and sealed before they leave the kitchen. Vegan and gluten free meals avoid the usual Pilbara traps of pastry, pies and shared fryers, and allergen free orders are labelled by seat.

DeliveryEvery FBO

Airport catering at the FBO or general aviation terminal, Paraburdoo Airport

At Paraburdoo, FBO catering means a handover at the general aviation terminal or the aircraft, agreed with your handling agent. Catering delivery to the FBO is arranged with ground handling catering in mind: access, apron slot and who opens which gate. Handling agent catering is simply a call between us and them, so the trays arrive where the crew expects.

Aircraft provisioning and airport catering at Paraburdoo Airport (YPBO)

At Paraburdoo the type on the apron sets how the trays go aboard. A light jet takes trays through the main door, while a larger cabin may need a high loader at the door height, and galley catering is packed to the galley of that aircraft. Airside catering delivery is arranged with the FBO or your handling agent, and aircraft provisioning follows the type, door sill and slot on the day.

About the airportYPBO / PBO

Airport catering at Paraburdoo Airport (YPBO)

Paraburdoo is a small Pilbara airfield in Western Australia serving mining and regional traffic. Airport catering here is planned before arrival, since the terrain offers little fresh provisioning on the spot. General aviation and FBO services sit alongside ground handling services that meet business jets at the apron.

Business aviation

Paraburdoo is a quiet business aviation hub in the Pilbara, used by mining executives and regional charters. Inflight catering and in-flight catering here are shaped by heat and distance; aviation catering is packed to hold, with ground handling services coordinating the apron. Business aviation catering and executive jet catering follow the aircraft type, diplomatic flight catering is rarely needed but cleared with protocol, and cabin crew meals ride on the same order as the other crew meals.

Customs & food import

Australia enforces strict biosecurity and customs rules on food entering the country, so declare any fresh meat, dairy or produce on arrival. Domestic Paraburdoo flights face fewer limits, but international legs follow the destination's rules; we label contents so inspection by ground handling services is quick.

★★★★★LARGE CABIN

“For 6 passengers departing from YPBO, the agreed menu was vegetarian wraps and colourful salads; our main consideration was a revised passenger count. When comparing private jet catering companies, I would look closely at storage requirements after this experience. I wanted clear identification on the sandwiches; The Galley Girls made the packing arrangement easy to compare with the order. I found the starters without searching through every box, a small detail that mattered during the final cabin checks.”

Irina U. | Chief cabin officer — private jet

★★★★★ROYAL FLIGHT

“Nothing about the 4 guest order at PBO called for excess complexity: just fresh fruit and breakfast pastries and sensible planning for a short ground stop. The Galley Girls suggested compact food boxes for the canapés, and that choice worked well with our storage arrangement. I could hand the starters to a colleague with a short explanation instead of unpacking the whole order. My search for "private jet catering near me" led to a practical conversation about final order confirmation.”

Anastasia O. | Royal family manager

★★★★★GOVERNMENT

“Breakfast was already sorted; at Paraburdoo Airport, the next request was prawn salad and small fruit plates for 2 guests, with a family lunch request to work around. The Galley Girls confirmed the handover contact and identified the crew provisions, making the catering delivery easier for our team to track. We could account for the starters before passing the boxes to the cabin team, without a lengthy unpacking exercise. I would discuss private jet catering menu with them again, especially when portion planning needs careful coordination.”

Asked before every YPBO slotAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost for a Paraburdoo departure, and does the slot or turnaround change it?+

Short turnarounds at YPBO tend to mean fewer hot components, which keeps the order lean, and a long layover opens room for a multi-course meal. Premium Western Australian produce such as Exmouth prawns costs more than pantry items, and we price what you actually choose.

What is the lead time for private jet catering at Paraburdoo, and does aircraft type matter?+

The size of the galley sets the pace, not the airport. A small jet needs a compact menu, a larger one can take more. Paraburdoo requests with the type and slot confirmed are simple, and we handle last-minute orders day or night.

What about customs for food on a night or early morning departure from Paraburdoo?+

An early morning slot at YPBO still sits under Australian biosecurity rules. Local food packed here is fine domestically, but anything flying onward to another country faces that country's import limits. We pack sealed and labelled so the handling agent can show contents quickly.

Can you bring food on a private jet from Paraburdoo for a long leg with two services?+

Bringing your own food is permitted, but for a long leg we recommend splitting service one and service two into marked boxes. Dry Pilbara heat is hard on unrefrigerated items, so we use chilled packing and clear labels.

Is catering part of a charter into Paraburdoo, especially with a special-meal request?+

No. Catering is not part of a private jet charter: you order it separately and it is invoiced on its own. Special-meal requests need a little more detail, such as the restriction, the seat and whether a child is flying, and each one gets a dedicated board and box.
