How private jet catering runs at Cibao International Airport

The rhythm of aviation catering in Santiago follows the week's departure patterns at Cibao International Airport: early-morning departures to the United States and Caribbean dominate weekdays, while weekend charters and positioning flights cluster in late afternoon. Production schedules are built around these windows, with breakfast service prepared overnight and lunch or dinner orders batched for mid-morning delivery. Airside delivery runs are synchronised with fuelling and pre-flight inspections, so catering arrives when the cabin is open and crew are ready to stow. Flight attendants receive a briefing sheet with each order, detailing oven capacity limits, refrigeration hold times, and allergen cross-contact notes for the specific aircraft type. During high season—December through March—handling agents coordinate staggered delivery slots to avoid ramp congestion, and we adjust kitchen production schedules accordingly. Every order is logged against the departure slot to ensure that timing, portioning, and labelling align with the operational realities of this platform.

The Santiago kitchen

Jet catering Santiago

When the sector runs ten hours or more, your inflight catering at STI is planned around how dishes hold at altitude. The kitchen preparing your order builds menus with second-service timing in mind: proteins that rest well under cover, starches that don't weep, desserts stable through a long cruise. Cold items are sealed immediately after plating and held in dedicated cold rooms until handover. Hot components travel separately when the flight profile calls for it. Crew meals ride the same production schedule, with documented allergen protocols on every label. Business aviation catering for extended range demands more than recipe—it requires knowing what survives pressure change, dry air, and reheating cycles.

The menu

Every item carries literal allergen labelling. Dishes are chosen for how they travel and how they serve in the cabin you specify, not for a menu card.

Served cold, holds four hours under refrigeration, contains fish and sesame.

Braised short rib with root vegetables and herb jus

Reheats in convection oven, twenty minutes at cruise galley setting, contains gluten.

Badged drivers deliver in temperature-controlled vehicles to your FBO or ramp-side at the aircraft door, timed to your slot.

Seasonal produce sourced near Santiago
Inflight catering — Dominican Republic

Inflight menu planning for departures from STI

Crew and handling teams work within what the season permits. Your private jet menu reflects what is fresh that month—greens in cooler weeks, stone fruit when the calendar turns, shellfish when supply is stable. The inflight menu adapts to galley limits and flight duration, portioned per seat and labelled for allergens. Lead time allows the kitchen preparing your order to source without speculation, and a late passenger count is absorbed where the window permits.
