Catering to your aircraft in Okat.
At Kosrae International the apron is quiet, the air is warm, and a business jet usually turns around between ocean legs. We pack the galley for exactly that: local fish, island starch, and trays your crew can heat and plate.
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.
Kosrae is the greenest of the Micronesian islands, and a private jet menu from Okat reflects that. The inflight menu leans on what the reef and the gardens give: yellowfin tuna, mahi-mahi, rock lobster, taro, breadfruit, plantain, coconut and tropical fruit. Private jet food here is not imported luxury, it is fresh island produce prepared properly and packed for a galley.
Local specialities such as fish in coconut milk, grilled reef fish with lime, and taro or breadfruit as a starch travel well if they are finished correctly. Jet catering in Kosrae State works best when the main course is cooked to be reheated in the aircraft oven and the sauce travels apart. For passengers who want something lighter, a platter of sliced tropical fruit and chilled fish keeps the cabin cool and the plating simple.
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.
Kosrae International sits on a flat strip of land at 11 feet above sea level, and the humid air shapes every tray that leaves the kitchen. Private jet catering here means food that survives tropical heat on the apron and still looks right at the seat. Inflight catering for PTSA is planned around what the island actually grows and catches, and in-flight catering for the galley is packed so the crew only has to open, heat and plate. Business aviation catering and executive jet catering for diplomatic flight catering movements or ordinary charters get the same treatment: cabin crew meals and passenger service from one brief, with aviation catering for the whole turn arranged in a single call.
A corporate trip to Kosrae needs food that suits the island and the cabin. Our private jet chef builds a bespoke menu for business jet catering and corporate jet catering, with VIP flight catering plating and charter flight catering logistics handled the same way. Luxury inflight catering here means fresh local fish, done well.
State movements into Kosrae are rare and closely managed. We treat government flight catering and VIP aviation catering as a protocol exercise first: head of state flight catering and state visit aircraft catering go through your office, and the food is packed sealed and labelled.
Kosrae is a small island with a short import chain, so special meals are planned rather than improvised. Halal is the exception here, not the baseline, which means it is handled as a separate preparation with its own board and its own box. Vegan, gluten free and allergen free dishes are built from taro, breadfruit, fruit and vegetables that already suit the island, and kosher is sourced and sealed in advance. Kids meals stay plain: rice, fruit, grilled fish. Tell us the restriction and the seat, and the tray is marked to match.
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.
After a long sector into Kosrae, flight crew meals matter. We prepare crew meals and crew catering as sealed crew meal boxes, with pilot meals and cockpit meals kept apart and different meals for pilots packed when your policy requires it. Cabin crew meals are billed with the order, never assumed.
FBO catering at Kosrae is a handover, not a delivery run. Catering delivery to the FBO is coordinated with your handling agent, who meets us at the general aviation terminal and the aircraft. Ground handling catering and handling agent catering follow your slot, and rain on the ramp is planned for.
A light jet or a mid-size cabin at PTSA is usually loaded by hand from a van, so galley catering is packed in compact boxes that fit a carry cart and a narrow door. If a larger aircraft arrives and needs a high loader, airside catering delivery is arranged with your handling agent beforehand. Aircraft provisioning for Kosrae is planned around the galley you actually have, the ramp surface and the weather that day.
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.

PTSA sits at just 11 feet of elevation, on the east side of Kosrae State. Airport catering reflects an island rhythm: modest traffic, careful provisioning, and food sourced from nearby. General aviation here is occasional and personal.
Kosrae is not a busy business aviation hub, which is why every order counts. We provide business aviation catering and executive jet catering as aviation catering built around local produce, with inflight catering, in-flight catering, cabin crew meals and diplomatic flight catering all arranged through one contact. FBO services and ground handling services are coordinated alongside.
Micronesia regulates food imports, and fresh produce, meat and some dairy can be restricted at entry. For catering, the practical consequence is to favour local fish and produce and to tell us early about anything imported, so it can be cleared with your handling agent.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“A request for a cold lunch with cheese and fruit, 8 passengers, and a family lunch request: that was our brief for the departure at Kosrae International Airport. For private jet meals, that attention to meal organisation made the order noticeably easier to manage. The Galley Girls kept the snack boxes separate from the finishing elements, which gave us control over the final presentation. It made a difference to have the fruit plates ready without cluttering the galley work area during preparation.”
“Breakfast was already sorted; at PTSA, the next request was vegetarian wraps and colourful salads for 8 guests, with limited fridge space to work around. For private jet menu, that attention to galley preparation made the order noticeably easier to manage. The Galley Girls used a readable packing list for the sauces, which helped when two colleagues checked the order together. Keeping the salads identifiable helped the colleague taking over service understand the order without another long explanation.”
“Timing and organisation mattered at KSA, where our order of a breakfast basket with individual preserves for 6 people involved a small galley worktop. I needed the fruit plates checked against the revised brief; The Galley Girls answered without sending us through another lengthy exchange. There was no need to reconstruct the salads quantities from several messages during the final departure checks. I want a private jet chef to understand storage requirements, and this order gave us a useful starting point.”
The cost of private jet catering at PTSA depends on what the island can supply and what must be brought in. Customs and food-import rules in Micronesia limit imported fresh items, so a menu built from local fish and produce is usually simpler and often cheaper than one that depends on imports.
What shapes lead time here is a single ingredient: a local product like rock lobster or fresh coconut that has to be sourced on the island. Choose it early and the rest follows; late requests are still handled.
Customs matter most when the slot is short. At PTSA, a long turnaround gives room for inspection of imported items, while a quick one favours island-sourced food.
You can, but the crew's duty time and a long wait on the ground are the real reasons to order instead. After a long leg into PTSA, a prepared meal handed over at the aircraft is easier than carrying fresh items through Micronesian customs.
No, catering sits apart from the charter agreement. Tell us about any special meal for Kosrae, and it is prepared, labelled by seat and invoiced separately.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
