Catering to your aircraft in Perth.
Perth is a long way from anywhere, and the sector out of YPPH is usually a long one. We stock the galley accordingly, with Western Australian seafood, fruit and cheese, cooked and packed by former VIP flight attendants.
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.
Fourteen years on VIP and head-of-state cabins. Can plate for twelve in a G650 galley and still land it hot.
The one who reads every diet card twice. If it says no cross-contact, it means no cross-contact.
Answers at 5 a.m. when the leg moved overnight. Same-day swaps are her love language.
Western Australia gives a private jet menu more to work with than most states: the coast supplies seafood, the south-west supplies vineyards and orchards, and Perth itself has a strong cafe and bakery culture. Crew meals at Perth can lean on the same produce, plated simply, so pilots eat well on a long sector. Our private jet menu for YPPH is built from those local specialities.
Western rock lobster is the signature seafood of the region, and it travels well chilled, split and served cold with lemon and a pot of aioli. Margaret River cheeses and Swan Valley figs and stone fruit suit an inflight menu because they need no cooking. Marron, a freshwater crayfish from the south-west, is another local speciality we can place on a private jet food order, ordered as a seasonal item. Western Australia also has a strong native-ingredient tradition, with wattleseed, finger lime and bush tomato used as accents.
For hot service, slow-cooked lamb or Albany-style fish with a sauce packed apart re-plates cleanly from a small galley oven. Perth sits on the edge of the continent, so the sea and the south-west vineyards define what a good meal looks like here.
Tail, pax, diets, timing. One message — no portal, no quote form. Answered at any hour, by a flight attendant.
Leak-proof boxes, marked by guest and restriction, with reheating times written on the lid.
Two minutes out of the drawer. Whatever you ordered for the crew comes in the same delivery, and one clean invoice follows.
Western Australia's mining season keeps the general aviation terminal at Perth International busy, with crews rotating through between the Pilbara and the east coast. Private jet catering for that traffic is sized to the galley on your tail. Business aviation catering, inflight catering and in-flight catering are cooked, packed and labelled by former VIP flight attendants. Executive jet catering for owners and diplomatic flight catering for visiting delegations run to the same standard, and cabin crew meals can be added to any order. Aviation catering for PER is ordered by phone or email, any hour.
Business jet catering at YPPH usually serves mining executives, charter groups and owners crossing the Indian Ocean. Corporate jet catering and VIP flight catering are built around the sector length, and charter flight catering follows the seat plan. Luxury inflight catering with a private jet chef and a bespoke menu takes western rock lobster, Margaret River cheese and Swan Valley fruit as its base.
State visit aircraft catering into YPPH starts with the delegation's requirements and the protocol contact. Government flight catering and head of state flight catering are cooked by a named team and delivered sealed. VIP aviation catering stays discreet at every step.
At Perth the diet card travels with the seat plan: kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free and allergen free meals are each cooked and packed apart, sealed, and marked by seat number only. Kids meals and other special meals are noted on the same card, and with seafood, nuts and wine-country dairy so common in Western Australian cooking, we keep shellfish, tree nut and dairy lines separate from the start.
A sheet per guest. Separate boards, separate boxes.
Sealed, certificate in the same box.
Their own menu, nothing to cut at altitude.
Vegan, low-carb, light — composed, never compromised.
At Perth, crew meals are an add-on you ask for when you book the sector, and they appear on the invoice as their own line. Flight crew meals for a long sector are hearty and easy to eat one-handed, and pilot meals are packed so the captain and first officer never share a dish. Crew catering at YPPH covers cockpit meals in sealed crew meal boxes, and we offer different meals for pilots when the operator's policy asks for it. Cabin crew meals are ordered with the same form.
FBO catering at Perth is handed over at the general aviation terminal or at the aircraft, depending on the handling agent's plan. Catering delivery to the FBO is coordinated with ground handling catering rules, and handling agent catering requests are met with a named contact on the day.
Larger cabins arriving at YPPH, such as head-of-state and long-range VIP aircraft, need galley catering loaded through the main door or by high loader. Airside catering delivery follows the handling agent's access plan, and aircraft provisioning is staged in sealed trolleys so the galley can be filled in order. Tell us the type and we plan the load accordingly.
Mention it when you orderCertified, inspected, with cold-chain records filed against your trip.
Whichever terminal you park at, handover is at the aircraft, on your slot.

Perth International is the main gateway for Western Australia, with a general aviation presence tied to mining and long-range traffic. Airport catering for business aviation runs through the handling agent and the FBO, and ground handling services at YPPH set where and how the order reaches the aircraft, as they do at every airport we cover.
Perth as a business aviation hub peaks with the mining season and with winter events in the south-west. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering are ordered around those peaks. Business aviation catering and executive jet catering suit long-range owners, diplomatic flight catering covers delegations, and cabin crew meals and crew meals are added by request. General aviation and FBO services at PER, together with the ground handling services behind them, are well suited to this traffic.
Australian biosecurity is strict: imported food is declared or discarded, and leftover international catering is controlled. For orders at YPPH this means local sourcing is usually the safer route, and we plan the galley with that in mind, in step with the ground handling services that clear provisions airside.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“Clear quantities were essential at PER: we had 2 passengers expecting prawn salad and small fruit plates and were working around different crew meal preferences. The Galley Girls understood why we wanted the canapés readily accessible instead of spread across several different boxes. Our colleague could take over the fruit plates without asking where every component had been placed during preparation. My main takeaway from this business jet catering order was the practical approach to storage requirements.”
“Having 11 guests request roasted vegetable bowls with separate dressings at Perth International Airport meant planning the portions carefully while accounting for a tight boarding window. The Galley Girls gave us an update on the sandwiches before the handover, which helped us organise the cabin checks. With business aviation catering, careful attention to portion planning matters as much to our crew as the menu itself. Knowing where the crew provisions were packed meant the crew could begin the relevant checks as soon as the order arrived.”
“Menu approval at YPPH covered beef fillet with roasted potatoes for 11 guests, leaving us to organise the service around a late menu amendment. For our team, the strongest part of their jet catering was how they handled cabin service sequence. The Galley Girls talked through the quantities of desserts with us before confirmation, rather than leaving us to guess the portions. There was enough information about the salads to brief the crew without making assumptions about what had been ordered.”
Think of it as menu by menu. A gluten free breakfast for four at YPPH is simple and economical; a kosher dinner with Western Australian seafood substitutes is not. Send the dietary cards with the trip details and the quote follows the plates.
Rock lobster can be requested for any flight, and we work it into the order around the slot and the customs picture. Seasonal items sometimes need a swap; we tell you which and why. Last-minute orders are handled the same way as planned ones.
At PER, international catering sits within Australian biosecurity rules, which is why local sourcing is a practical choice. The weather rarely grounds flights, but heat can stress open dishes, so we pack salads apart and keep lines cold. Tell us your flight pattern and we adjust.
Carrying food in is an Australian customs matter, and getting anything airside is a handling agent matter. We coordinate with the agent so the order reaches the aircraft sealed. If you prefer your own provisions, tell us and we plan around them.
Not part of the charter; ordered and invoiced separately. A last-minute passenger change at YPPH means more plates or fewer, and we rebuild the packing list and labels to match. Send the new seat plan.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
