Your inflight catering at CTL is prepared in Toowoomba and delivered to Charleville Airport with temperature-controlled handling, bringing chef-level precision to private aircraft catering across western Queensland's outback sectors.


Lea Bernard portions each order to the seating plan you send, choosing serving formats that fit your trolley and galley capacity. For a six-seat cabin, individual trays; for a larger charter, family-style platters that the crew can portion in flight. Lea answers your call directly, adjusts a dish when an allergen conflicts, and briefs the delivery on reheating steps and hold times. Every label is written by the person who cooked the dish, and every delivery is timed to your pre-flight sequence at CTL.
Lea Bernard is a classically trained Private Jet Chef who brings refined culinary artistry to high-altitude dining. With expertise spanning French techniques and contemporary gastronomy, she crafts bespoke menus that transform each flight into an exceptional culinary journey.
Charleville Airport sees peaks tied to charter rotations and private movements, yet your order is prepared to the departure you set, not the field average. Lead time is typically twenty-four hours for a full cabin order; shorter notice is absorbed where the kitchen schedule allows. When you order private jet catering, production is timed against your slot, and the delivery run is coordinated with your handling agent to meet pre-flight sequencing. The private jet catering quote you receive lists every dish, every allergen, and the format that fits your galley.

Jet catering Charleville — kitchen discipline
Your aircraft at CTL receives private jet catering prepared in a dedicated facility with separate cold rooms for protein, dairy, and finished plates. The kitchen preparing your order works to same-day schedules: production is timed against your departure slot, dishes are sealed immediately after plating, and cold-chain integrity is maintained through every stage. Each label carries documented allergen information; every special diet instruction is logged and checked at packing. Delivery is coordinated directly with your FBO or handling agent at Charleville Airport. Badged personnel bring your order airside to the aircraft door or to the FBO desk, aligning handover with your pre-flight sequence. You set the timing; the inflight catering follows it. No shared vans, no guesswork at the ramp—just temperature-controlled transfer and a single point of contact between the kitchen and your departure.

Every item carries literal allergen labelling.

Airside delivery for VIP and charter flights at YBCV
If the slot moves an hour forward, the delivery moves with it. Badged drivers bring VIP flight catering and charter flight catering airside in temperature-controlled vehicles, handing over at your FBO or directly at the aircraft door. For larger cabins, high loader access is confirmed at the time of order, serving galley doors at height where available. The handover is timed against your fuelling and pre-flight checks, and the same contact who took the order briefs the crew on oven capacity and cold-chain limits for your aircraft type.

Private jet catering at Charleville Airport — questions
Charleville Airport operates without dedicated FBO infrastructure in the traditional sense; instead, we coordinate inflight catering at YBCV through the airport's handling agents and deliver directly to your aircraft on the apron. If your operation requires a specific handover point or holding area, confirm those details when you place your order and we'll align our driver's briefing accordingly.
Same-day private jet catering is typically feasible when your order reaches us early and the menu remains straightforward — cold platters, breakfast boxes, pre-sealed mains. Multi-course builds, specialized dietary requests, or departures requiring high-loader service benefit from advance notice so we can source regionally, coordinate equipment, and schedule the 200-kilometre transfer from Toowoomba without compressing production windows.
Yes. We build for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, kosher-style, and other dietary frameworks, labelling every component with clear allergen cards so your crew can brief passengers confidently. Provide full details — ingredient exclusions, cross-contact concerns, portion preferences — when you order, and we'll configure the menu and pack each tray accordingly.
High-loader capability for aviation catering at YBCV is confirmed at the time of order and depends on equipment availability through the airport's handling agents. When a loader is required and available, we schedule the lift to align with your fuel and baggage loading sequence; if equipment isn't on hand, we'll coordinate alternative handover methods — cabin-door delivery or apron-level transfer — to keep your departure on schedule.
Contact us with your departure date, slot time, passenger and crew count, and any dietary requirements. We'll confirm menu options suited to your sector length and galley capacity, provide pricing, and lock in the production and delivery schedule. For recurrent charters or multi-leg itineraries, we can pre-build standing orders that streamline the process and ensure consistency across every departure from CTL.
