Private jet catering at Pemba Airport — questions
We deliver to the handling agents active on the day of your departure. Pemba Airport has limited FBO infrastructure, so coordination typically runs through the local ground handler or directly with your flight crew. Confirm the point of contact when you place your order, and we'll arrange inflight catering at HTPE accordingly.
Same-day orders are possible when ingredients are already in-house and your departure slot allows time for preparation and airside transfer. Notice requirements vary with menu complexity, passenger count, and supply-boat schedules. Contact us as early as you can, and we'll confirm what's achievable for your wheels-up time.
Yes. Every dish is labelled with major allergens—shellfish, nuts, gluten, dairy—and we prepare vegan, kosher-style, halal, and low-sodium menus when specified at the time of order. Provide full details of restrictions and preferences, and we'll tailor your private jet catering to match cabin and crew needs.
High-loader access depends on equipment availability at the time of your departure. Pemba Airport's ramp facilities are limited, and aviation catering at HTPE for wide-body or large-cabin aircraft may require manual loading via the main door. We confirm the method once your handler provides apron details and slot assignment.
Submit your request with departure time, passenger and crew count, aircraft type, and any dietary requirements. Include your handler contact and PPR reference if available. We'll confirm menu options, delivery timing, and airside handover arrangements, then coordinate directly with your ground team to ensure everything boards on schedule.
