Private Jet Catering at Félix-Houphouët-Boigny International Airport (DIAP / ABJ), Abidjan
Your inflight catering at ABJ is prepared in Abidjan's climate-controlled production facility and delivered airside with temperature integrity, whether you're departing early for Europe or staging a regional charter across West Africa.
Two days before departure, the allergen list is cross-checked and the final headcount confirmed. Pablo Haddad cooks what you have ordered, portions it to your seating plan, and labels every container for reheating time and temperature. He answers when a passenger restriction arrives late, suggests a cold alternative when the galley oven is offline, and confirms each delivery window with your handling agent. You deal with one kitchen and one contact; nothing is subcontracted, and nothing leaves without his sign-off.
Pablo Haddad is a Private Jet Chef who brings refined culinary artistry to high-altitude dining. With expertise spanning contemporary international cuisine and classical French techniques, he crafts bespoke menus that transform every flight into an exceptional gastronomic experience.
When you order private jet catering for a departure from ABJ, allow eighteen hours lead time for a full brief and custom menu; shorter turnarounds are absorbed where the kitchen holds stock and the dish travels cold. Production is timed against the morning and evening departure peaks, with delivery runs synchronised to pre-flight checks. A private jet catering quote reflects your passenger count, dietary restrictions, and oven capacity per aircraft type. Late changes are radioed to the driver; if the aircraft is still on stand, the amendment reaches you before pushback.
