Private Jet Catering at Mattala Rajapaksa International Airport (VCRI / HRI), Mattala
With charter peaks and long-haul departures shaping the HRI schedule, private jet catering in Mattala is timed to your flight plan—orders prepared in a dedicated kitchen, cold-chain controlled, and delivered airside on your timeline.


Early in the week, when the order list for HRI is built, Elodie Dubois reviews each departure time against the handling schedule and the lead time the field requires. On an airport where infrastructure is limited and catering must arrive from a dedicated facility, timing matters: she confirms your slot, plans production to meet it, and briefs the driver on ramp access and handover protocol. You communicate with her directly, from the first message through to boarding.
Elodie Dubois brings refined French culinary expertise to the world of private aviation. Trained in classical techniques and passionate about gastronomic excellence, she creates sophisticated menus that transform high-altitude dining into an unforgettable journey of flavors.
When departures cluster around morning business slots or late long-haul windows, production is sequenced to meet the day's rhythm without overlap.

Private jet catering at Mattala Rajapaksa International Airport — questions
We deliver inflight catering at VCRI directly to the handling agent or FBO coordinating your arrival, and can also arrange planeside handover when airside access is confirmed in advance. The airport's private aviation facilities are managed through a centralised handling structure, so you'll coordinate the delivery point with your ground contact when filing your slot request.
Same-day private jet catering is typically available when we receive menu selections and final passenger count before midday, allowing time for prep in Colombo and the ninety-minute transfer to the airport. Later requests may limit menu choice but rarely prevent service entirely; confirming your departure slot as early as possible gives the kitchen the most flexibility.
Yes. Every private aircraft catering order is labelled with complete allergen information—gluten, dairy, shellfish, tree nuts, soy and others—and we'll adjust recipes or substitute ingredients to meet medical, religious or preference-based restrictions. Let us know the requirements when you place the order so the kitchen can source and prep separately where cross-contact is a concern.
High-loader access for aviation catering at VCRI is available where the airport confirms equipment at the time of your order. It's not guaranteed for every movement, but we'll arrange it when your aircraft type and cabin configuration require elevated loading, provided the request comes through with enough lead time for the handling agent to schedule.
Contact us with your departure date, estimated wheels-up time, passenger and crew count, and any dietary requirements. We'll send a tailored private plane catering menu, confirm availability, coordinate the delivery window with your handling agent, and provide final costing. Orders placed before midday the day prior give the kitchen the most scope; same-day requests are handled wherever operationally feasible.
