Your private jet chef for SOM

Early each morning, before the first departure slot at San Tomé Airport, Sofia Garcia checks the day's order list and sets production schedules against your wheels-up time. She cooks every dish to the reheating method your galley allows, adjusts seasoning for cabin pressure, and seals each tray while it is still cold. Her team labels allergens literally, logs temperatures through packing, and loads your order into refrigerated transport timed to your fueling window. Sofia answers directly when the brief changes or a new restriction comes through, and she stays on the line until your crew confirms receipt airside.

How to order private jet catering for departures from SVST

When allergens or special diets are part of the brief, every item is labelled with literal ingredient lists your crew can read at boarding. Multiple dietary requirements travel on the same order, sealed and marked separately. Lead time is typically twenty-four hours; shorter notice is workable depending on the departure list that day and what is already in preparation. To order private jet catering, send your departure time, passenger count, and any restrictions; you receive a private jet catering quote with oven instructions and holding limits for your aircraft type.

Jet catering El Tigre

For private aviation catering at San Tomé Airport (SOM), allergen handling begins in the kitchen preparing your order. Every item carries literal labelling—milk, eggs, nuts, gluten, shellfish—written plainly so crew can confirm at a glance before service. Special diets appear on the same order sheet: vegan, kosher, low-sodium, dairy-free plating prepared in dedicated stations to prevent cross-contact. The facility applies documented protocols at every post, from garde-manger through pâtisserie, and each sealed tray includes ingredient disclosure. Business aviation catering for El Tigre departures is timed to your slot, with cold-chain control maintained from plating through handover.

The menu

Private jet catering menu at San Tomé Airport

You can order breakfast trays, cold plates that hold across a long sector, mains built to reheat in your galley oven, and crew meals on the same manifest. Portioning matches your seat count; every dish is labelled with allergens your cabin crew can verify before service. Hot preparations include reheating instructions and holding times for your equipment. Cold plates rely on ingredients that travel well and need no galley work. Desserts and pastries are packed separately to prevent moisture transfer.

Airside delivery of flight catering at San Tomé Airport

Delivery is timed to your slot—handover at the FBO you nominate or directly at the aircraft door, verified against the manifest your crew holds. Cold chain is logged through loading. VIP flight catering and charter flight catering both follow the same airside discipline. For larger cabin configurations, high loader capability is confirmed at the time of order where available, serving galley doors without ramp stair transfer.

Inflight catering — Venezuela

Inflight menu preparation for departures from SOM

Your private jet menu is built to survive what a cabin does to food. Pressurisation mutes salt and acid; reheating in a galley oven dries delicate proteins. Sauces are reduced further than you would serve them on the ground so they coat rather than separate at altitude. Cold plates rely on texture—crunch holds where softness collapses. Braised preparations reheat cleanly; pan-seared fish does not. Seasoning is checked twice: once in the kitchen, once for how it will read on the tongue six hours into a leg. Every dish on your inflight menu is tested against the galley equipment your crew will use, so it arrives as intended.
