Chef Kwame Rossi – Sierra Maestra International Airport

MZO orders are prepared by Kwame Rossi, who answers directly when your departure time moves or a new allergen is declared. A request received in the morning typically allows a same-day delivery if the production schedule permits; requests further out give room for market sourcing and menu adjustments. Cold plates are packed in insulated carriers; hot mains travel in foil that fits your galley oven. Portioning follows the seat count you set, and every label lists ingredients in full.

How to order private jet catering at MZO

A long sector from Manzanillo demands dishes that hold: cold plates stable for eight hours, mains that reheat cleanly in a galley oven, desserts that survive the cruise. Lead time is typically forty-eight hours for a full menu; same-day requests are absorbed where production allows. You order private jet catering through a single message—breakfast, mains, crew meals on the same ticket. The private jet catering quote returns within two hours, listing every allergen and every portioning choice. Delivery runs are timed against your fuelling schedule, and crews are briefed on oven capacity per aircraft type.

Private aviation catering for MZO is prepared in a dedicated facility equipped for long-haul operations. Cold rooms maintain strict temperature zones for proteins, dairy, and prepared components throughout production. Dishes are designed to hold structural integrity and flavour over extended cruise times—typically eight hours or more—without relying on galley reheating. The pâtisserie and garde-manger posts plate to order, seal immediately after assembly, and label each tray with full allergen documentation. Crew meals are produced on the same order, ensuring your entire cabin is fed from a single cold-chain controlled workflow. Business aviation catering at Sierra Maestra International Airport is timed against your departure slot, with same-day capacity built into the production schedule so that plating, chilling, and handover align with your ETA.

The menu

Private jet catering menu at Sierra Maestra International Airport

You can order breakfast trays for an early departure, cold-plated starters that hold across a long leg, mains portioned for galley oven reheating, desserts that travel without damage, and crew meals on the same order. Every dish is labelled for allergens—shellfish, gluten, dairy, nuts—so your cabin crew can brief passengers accurately. Portioning follows your seat count; packaging is chosen for the aircraft type and the sector length.

Roasted chicken breast with root vegetables and herb jus

Travels hot or reheats from chilled, portion sealed, holds five hours, contains celery.

Airside delivery

Airside delivery at Sierra Maestra International Airport

Jet catering at MUMZ moves airside through a single controlled-access gate, staffed intermittently and requiring advance notification for each delivery. Our badged driver coordinates entry with ground handling, then proceeds directly to the FBO apron or to the aircraft stand if your handler has cleared planeside access. All transfers use refrigerated vans that hold two-to-eight-degree temperatures, protecting cold plates and sealed hot packs during the fifteen-minute drive from Holguin and the brief apron crossing. For larger cabin configurations, we pack service trolleys that roll straight into the galley; for midsize jets, stacked carriers go into overhead or forward stowage as your crew directs. High-loader service is available where the airport has confirmed equipment and your handler has booked it at the time of order—typically for long-range aircraft departing on international sectors—but it is not a standing capability at every slot.

Seasonal produce sourced near Manzanillo
Inflight catering — Cuba

Inflight catering Manzanillo

Local sourcing around Manzanillo centres on the Gulf of Guacanayabo fishery, which supplies lobster, snapper, and grouper to the morning market, and on the piedmont farms that yield root vegetables, plantain, citrus, and seasonal greens. Chef Kwame Rossi visits suppliers twice weekly, selecting produce at peak ripeness and coordinating delivery schedules with departure loads at Sierra Maestra International Airport. The short distance between coast, farm, and kitchen means shellfish can be prepped within hours of landing and stone fruit arrives with colour still developing. That immediacy translates to private aircraft catering menus built around what's available now rather than what ships well from distant hubs. You'll see it in the sweetness of a just-cut pineapple, the snap of a bean picked yesterday, and the clean brine of a lobster tail that never saw a freezer.
