Fifteen departures a week leave CEB with orders prepared by Lea Patel. Early morning business legs demand trays packed the night before; late long-haul charters allow for hot mains finished two hours prior to wheels-up. Lea Patel writes the menu once galley equipment and flight duration are known, portions each dish to your seat count, and confirms delivery with the crew or handling agent you nominate. The kitchen stays open to adjust an order until production begins.

How private jet catering runs at Mactan Cebu

Aviation catering in Cebu City/Lapu-Lapu City follows the rhythm of the airport's departure peaks: early-morning regional hops to Manila and Davao, late-morning positioning flights across South-East Asia, and evening long-haul charters. Production times are set to those banks—breakfast orders close by 06:00 for a 09:00 push, lunch and dinner menus lock three hours before wheels-up—and delivery runs synchronise with fuelling and pre-flight walkarounds so catering doesn't queue behind other ground services. During high season—December holidays, Chinese New Year, summer school breaks—we brief your flight attendants on galley capacity and refrigeration limits for the aircraft type you've filed, ensuring portions and packaging fit the service flow you've planned. Handling agents at Mactan Cebu coordinate slot changes through ops, and we adjust kitchen and transport schedules in step, maintaining the same single point of contact from brief through boarding.

When the fleet spans three cabin sizes and departure windows shift, you need one contact that holds for every aircraft type. Our private aviation catering at CEB—Mactan Cebu International Airport—routes orders through a single operations desk, so you issue one brief and receive consolidated confirmation across the schedule. The kitchen preparing your order maintains dedicated cold rooms, separate pâtisserie and garde-manger posts, and same-day production timed to your slot. Plating is sealed immediately, allergen protocol documented on every label, and cold-chain integrity maintained through handover. High-loader capability is available where ramp access permits, simplifying boarding for large-cabin aircraft. You work with one team for business aviation catering across every airport we cover, reducing supplier lists and coordinating lead times that respect your turnaround constraints.

The menu

Breakfast trays for early departures, cold plates that hold across a five-hour leg, mains designed to reheat in a galley oven, and crew meals added to the same order. Each dish is portioned to the number of passengers you specify, and every item carries ingredient labelling so allergens are visible before boarding. The menu is written once the departure slot and aircraft type are confirmed.

Seared tuna loin with mango relish and steamed jasmine rice

Reheats in a galley oven at 160°C for twelve minutes, contains fish and may contain traces of shellfish.

Cold poached chicken breast with citrus dressing and herb salad

Airside delivery

Ramp delivery at Mactan Cebu International Airport

Jet catering at RPVM moves airside in temperature-controlled vans driven by badged personnel who hold current security clearance and know the apron layout. Handover happens either at the FBO reception—if your handler is consolidating services—or directly at the aircraft door, depending on gate assignment and your crew's preference. For large-cabin and wide-body charters, high-loader service is available where the FBO confirms equipment and scheduling permits; we coordinate that detail when you place the order, not as a standing guarantee. Each carrier is labelled with flight reference, departure time, and a contact number. If a slot shifts or catering needs to hold on the ramp, our drivers stay in radio contact with ground ops and adjust. Cold chain integrity is maintained from kitchen seal through cabin stow: we monitor pack temperature at departure and log it on the delivery manifest, giving your crew a reference point for galley management aloft.

Inflight catering — Philippines

Inflight menus for departures from CEB

Crew and handling teams work within short operational windows at Mactan Cebu International Airport. The private jet menu adapts to what can be sourced fresh each week — shellfish in season, lean proteins year-round, greens that hold their texture in chilled storage. Limited on-site infrastructure means orders require longer notice than at larger fields. Your inflight menu is built once the delivery slot is confirmed, and portioned to the number of seats you specify.
