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.

Port Lincoln on the plate: local specialities for in-flight catering at PLO

Port Lincoln sits on the Eyre Peninsula in South Australia, and the private jet menu here is a seafood menu. The inflight menu we write for PLO leans on southern bluefin tuna from the Spencer Gulf pens, King George whiting, Coffin Bay oysters and Port Lincoln abalone, with local specialities from the peninsula's grain and wine country alongside. Private jet food built on these products travels well when you split it: raw and chilled on one board, cooked items for your oven on another. Private jet platters of tuna sashimi, oysters on ice and Eyre Peninsula cheese ride cold; gourmet inflight meals of whiting or lamb go to the oven with sauce apart. Private jet snacks stay simple: olives, South Australian almonds, dried fruit and local crackers. These local specialities are what South Australia guests ask for first.

Executive jet catering and diplomatic flight catering both run on the same labelled system here. Business aviation catering for YPLC is ordered by phone or email, day or night, and cabin crew meals ride in the same delivery as the guest trays.

Business aviationOur core

Private jet catering in Port Lincoln for business and VIP flights (PLO)

A typical Port Lincoln brief is a small group heading to a fishing lodge or a tuna-farm visit, flying a light or midsize jet. Business jet catering for them is cold seafood, a hot main and a good cheese board. Corporate jet catering and VIP flight catering follow the same plan: the galley tells us how much goes to the oven. Charter flight catering is ordered per trip, luxury inflight catering uses local abalone and whiting, and a private jet chef writes a bespoke menu around the passengers' tastes.

Special meals

Special meals for every diet: in-flight catering at Port Lincoln Airport

On the Eyre Peninsula the allergen to watch is shellfish, because so much of the local table is oysters, prawns and abalone. For kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free, allergen free and kids meals, we write the special meals as a procedure: each one sealed, marked by seat number and kept apart from the seafood boards. Tell us the restriction and the headcount and we plan the menu around the kitchen here, not around a template.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Crew meals for pilots and cabin crew at Port Lincoln Airport (PLO)

At PLO the crew often wait with the aircraft, so crew meals are a separate request on the same invoice. Flight crew meals come boxed and marked CREW; pilot meals and cockpit meals are packed to eat with one hand. Crew catering, crew meal boxes and different meals for pilots are all available on request, billed with the order.

High loaderLarge cabins, bizliners

Large cabin jet catering with a high loader at Port Lincoln Airport (PLO)

Port Lincoln takes mostly light and midsize business aircraft, so galley catering is normally carried to the aircraft by hand and cart rather than by high loader. If your aircraft sits high or you need larger volumes, tell us the type and door height and we plan airside catering delivery and aircraft provisioning with your handling agent. The galley on board, one oven or two, decides how we pack.

About the airportYPLC / PLO

General aviation and airport catering at Port Lincoln Airport (PLO)

YPLC serves the town of Port Lincoln and the tuna and grain industries around it. Airport catering for private aircraft is arranged through the general aviation side, with FBO services and ground handling services booked ahead.

Business aviation

Business aviation at Port Lincoln is seasonal: fishing lodge guests, aquaculture visits and the odd official party. As a business aviation hub it is small, so business aviation catering and executive jet catering are planned around each arrival. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering orders are kept simple, diplomatic flight catering is handled with the protocol office, and cabin crew meals are ordered with the guest trays.

Customs & food import

Australia controls the import and export of fresh food, and an international departure from Port Lincoln brings destination-country rules on seafood, dairy and produce. Domestic legs are simple. Tell us the next destination before you order.

★★★★☆GOVERNMENT

“Choosing yoghurt pots and fresh berries for 2 people at PLO was straightforward; the challenge was making it work with several individual meal preferences. The salads supplied by The Galley Girls were straightforward to check against the written menu before the cabin handover. Keeping the snack boxes identifiable helped the colleague taking over service understand the order without another long explanation. Our brief for private jet catering menu was met with a sensible plan for written menu details.”

★★★★★LARGE CABIN

“Between cabin checks at Port Lincoln Airport, I coordinated mushroom risotto and a green salad for 10 guests and explained our concerns about different crew meal preferences. Our request to The Galley Girls focused on the sauces, with enough detail to distinguish passenger portions from additional provisions. For our team, the strongest part of their private aviation catering was how they handled crew briefing. The quantities of fruit plates matched our service plan, leaving us comfortable with the order before the final briefing.”

★★★★★BUSINESS JET

“Before our guests boarded at YPLC, we needed smoked salmon bagels and sliced fruit divided into 12 portions suitable for several individual meal preferences. With business jet catering, careful attention to written menu details matters as much to our crew as the menu itself. After a final adjustment to the salads, The Galley Girls gave us one revised order summary to work from. The note about the desserts was easy to spot, and we could brief the rest of the team quickly.”

What crews ask before Port LincolnAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost on a long leg out of Port Lincoln with two services on board?+

For a departure from Port Lincoln with a service on the climb and another before descent, we write two menus and price each. The most expensive items are usually seafood in peak season. Crew meals and pilot trays, if requested, are quoted as their own lines. Phone or email us for a figure.

What is the lead time for a kosher, halal, allergen or child meal at Port Lincoln?+

A child's meal at YPLC is easy to plan; a certified kosher meal needs more care. We ask for the restriction, the seat and the headcount, then tell you what we can do for your slot. Last-minute requests are handled, day or night.

What do customs say about local seafood and produce on a menu leaving Port Lincoln?+

If your tail clears customs out of Australia from the Eyre Peninsula, tell us before ordering. Raw seafood, fresh fruit and dairy are the items most often stopped. Cooked and sealed dishes pass more easily, and we can move the menu that way.

Can you bring food of your own for a Port Lincoln departure when the weather window is tight?+

You may bring food. At Port Lincoln the season decides: summer winds, winter fronts. A delay turns fresh seafood risky, so we pack it to hold, and we adjust the order if the departure moves.

Is catering part of a charter into Port Lincoln when the handling agent controls airside access?+

No: catering is not part of a charter. Whether you fly a private jet charter or your own aircraft, you order and pay for the food separately. For Port Lincoln we work through the handling agent for airside access.
