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

Otepa on the plate: local specialities for in-flight catering at HOI

The table of French Polynesia suits a private jet menu: fish, coconut, lime and fruit, most of it served cold, which fits a galley with one small oven. For an order at Hao and the wider Otepa area, the local specialities are built for the drawer. Poisson cru in coconut milk travels in a sealed pot with the sauce apart, and you dress it at the seat. The inflight menu also carries mahi-mahi, tuna and tropical fruit cut on the day, with breadfruit or rice warmed and re-plated by you. Private jet food from this part of the Pacific stays honest: no heavy cream, nothing that collapses at altitude.

Think of the private jet menu for Hao as a short list done well. The local specialities are raw fish, coconut, vanilla, taro, breadfruit and island fruit, and each has its own way of travelling. Fish goes chilled with the sauce apart, fruit goes whole or cut by the kitchen, and anything warm is packed for a small oven. The inflight menu can add a coconut-lime dressing, a vanilla dessert in its own cup and a plate of tropical fruit for the long leg out of the atoll. Private jet food for Otepa and the Tuamotu is fresh and light, and every item carries its seat number.

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

The strip at Hao is long enough for large aircraft, and an atoll stop usually means a tight turnaround and a galley that has to last the next leg. Private jet catering for HOI starts from that: what the crew will actually eat, what the guests will re-plate, what stays chilled. Inflight catering and in-flight catering are packed by former VIP flight attendants, aviation catering is marked by seat, and business aviation catering is cooked for the galley you describe. Executive jet catering, diplomatic flight catering and cabin crew meals all go through one phone call or one email.

Business aviationOur core

Business jet catering at Hao Airport for VIP flights

Business jet catering at Hao is mostly a question of the aircraft and what the galley can hold. Corporate jet catering for HOI covers a light jet on a charter flight catering run or a larger corporate transfer, and VIP flight catering follows the same labels. Luxury inflight catering uses lagoon fish and fruit. Our private jet chef writes a bespoke menu around what is on the island, and charter flight catering at NTTO is packed for the drawer and the oven you have.

Government flight and VIP aviation catering at Hao Airport

At NTTO, a state visit aircraft catering order begins with the protocol brief, not the menu. Government flight catering and head of state flight catering are prepared by a small named team, VIP aviation catering is traceable, and the handover goes through the FBO and your handling agent. Nothing is said outside the people who need to know.

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

Allergens hide in the cuisine here: coconut in almost every sauce, shellfish in the raw-fish dishes, nuts in the desserts. Kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free, allergen free, kids meals and other special meals are cooked on a separate board and sealed in their own box, marked by seat number, so nobody opens a guest tray by mistake. Tell us the restriction with the trip and we plan the menu around it, not the other way round.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Pilot meals and crew meals at Hao Airport (HOI)

Crew meals at Hao are ordered with the trip, on request, and invoiced like the rest of the order. Flight crew meals and pilot meals are packed to eat in a cockpit with one hand, and cockpit meals stay simple on an atoll turnaround. Crew catering comes in crew meal boxes marked CREW, and we can send different meals for pilots when the operator asks. Cabin crew meals, if wanted, ride in a separate box so no guest tray is opened by mistake.

Ground handling and FBO catering at Hao Airport

High loader and aircraft provisioning: aviation catering at Hao Airport

At Hao, the type of aircraft decides which door the galley catering goes through and whether it is carried or lifted. A narrow-body or large private jet may need a high loader at the door, while a light jet takes trays carried up the stairs. Tell us the type and where the galley is, and we plan the airside catering delivery and the aircraft provisioning for that door, so the boxes come aboard in the order you will use them.

About the airportNTTO / HOI

About Hao Airport: business aviation and airport catering

Hao is an atoll airport in the Tuamotu islands with a long coral runway and one small terminal. It is an airport catering stop for aircraft crossing the Pacific, and a general aviation field for private jets calling in on an island itinerary.

Business aviation

Hao is a small business aviation hub in the Tuamotu, with general aviation traffic and FBO services handled on one apron. Business aviation catering and executive jet catering for NTTO use local fish and fruit, aviation catering is packed for the galley, and in-flight catering and inflight catering follow the same labels. Diplomatic flight catering has its own procedure, and cabin crew meals ride in a separate box. Ground handling services stay with the handling agent.

Customs & food import

French Polynesia follows French customs rules, with strict controls on fresh produce, meat and dairy arriving from abroad. For catering, the practical consequence is simple: order locally for the next leg rather than carrying fresh food in, and ask your handling agent what must be declared.

★★★★★LIGHT JET
“Several practical details needed attention at Hao Airport, with a mezze selection with flatbreads requested for 6 guests and a revised passenger count to accommodate. Our brief for vip inflight catering was met with a sensible plan for packing arrangement. Instead of asking us to improvise, The Galley Girls explained how the sauces could be arranged during service. It made a difference to have the starters ready without cluttering the galley work area during preparation.”
Antonio B. | VIP flight attendant

★★★★★ROYAL FLIGHT
“Clear quantities were essential at NTTO: we had 9 passengers expecting chicken skewers with a couscous salad and were working around a small galley worktop. The Galley Girls understood why we wanted the side dishes readily accessible instead of spread across several different boxes. The canapés were reserved for the next stage, so the worktop stayed clear while we prepared the initial dishes. This experience of private jet catering gave us a useful reference for managing catering handover on another departure.”
James N. | Royal family manager

★★★★★LARGE CABIN
“Small packing details became important at HOI: our 12 passengers wanted yoghurt pots and fresh berries, and we had a changing departure schedule. I asked The Galley Girls to review the starters quantities against the passenger brief, and the proposed portions made sense. The quantities of canapés matched our service plan, leaving us comfortable with the order before the final briefing. For our team, the strongest part of their private jet catering services was how they handled storage requirements.”

Before you order at NTTOAsked by crews
How much does private jet catering cost at Hao?+

There is no menu price on this page because the aircraft decides. A mid-size jet with a modest galley takes a simple cold lunch, a large jet takes a full hot service, and Hao's local fish and fruit keep the lower end modest. Give us the tail type and the seat plan and we price your private jet catering order.

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

Early or late departures do not change how we work: we ask for the type, the covers and the slot, and the handover is arranged with your handling agent. Seasonal produce matters here, so tell us what you prefer. Last-minute orders are handled, and the line is open 24/7.

What about customs for inflight catering at Hao?+

Fresh food entering French Polynesia is controlled, and a long flight with two services leaves a galley full of items that cannot be left on the island. Plan the return meal with us instead of carrying it in, and ask your handling agent about waste. We pack for the departure, not the arrival.

Can you bring food on board at Hao?+

Bringing your own food is allowed in principle, though French Polynesia controls fresh produce and meat. For a kosher, halal, allergen-free or child's meal, we recommend ordering from us so it is prepared with the right procedure and labelled by seat. Your handling agent can confirm what customs allows.

Is catering part of a charter flight into Hao?+

Not as part of a charter, no. Catering is ordered separately and invoiced separately. If you want a local touch, a plate of Tuamotu fish or vanilla dessert, we add it to the menu and quote it with the rest. Tell us the type, the slot and the covers.
