Three of us. All ex VIP cabin crew.

We know the galley, the diet card and the 5 a.m. re-plate — because we lived them. So we built the caterer we always wished we could call.

The local tableCooked so it travels

Inflight catering with the flavours of Tegucigalpa (TGU)

Francisco Morazán Department gives the Tegucigalpa table its character: corn, beans, plantain, cheese and slow-cooked meat. A private jet menu for Toncontín can start there and still behave in a galley. Baleadas travel as folded flour tortillas with the beans, cream and cheese packed separately, so the tortilla is re-plated warm and never goes soft in transit. Pastelitos de carne are the sturdy local snack, a good fit for private jet snacks on a short sector. Plátanos fritos keep well and re-plate in seconds, while a carne asada plate is boxed with chimichurri and pickled onion on the side.

Honduran coffee is the obvious thing to put on an inflight menu from MHTG: the mountains around Tegucigalpa grow it, and a sealed pour-over set or ground bag fits any galley. Pair it with tres leches cut into portions, or a cold fruit plate of mango, pineapple and papaya when the season allows. Local specialities such as sopa de caracol or a chicken-and-rice plate are possible for private jet food, but we say when a dish will not survive the flight and propose a cleaner version. Private jet platters are the safe choice for a mixed cabin; gourmet inflight meals can be written dish by dish for the aircraft.

Dietary requirements and aviation catering at Toncontín Airport (MHTG)

At Toncontín the diet question is usually about the tortilla, the cream and the fried item: corn is often safe, but shared fryers and cheese in the beans are not. Kosher and halal meals are written to your seat plan and sealed in their own boxes, with kosher kept closed on the tray. Vegan, gluten free and allergen free meals are cooked on separate boards and labelled by seat number, special meals and kids meals included. Tell us the restriction and the tail, and we build around local ingredients instead of swapping them out.

DeliveryEvery FBO

Ground handling and FBO catering at Toncontín Airport

Orders for Toncontín are delivered to the FBO and handed over at the aircraft by the handling agent. FBO catering, catering delivery to the FBO and ground handling catering all go through the general aviation terminal, with handling agent catering confirmed against your tail and slot.

High loaderLarge cabins, bizliners

High loader delivery for jet catering at Toncontín Airport (TGU)

Toncontín is a short, high airfield, so the aircraft that use it are mostly light and midsize jets, and the galley is small. Galley catering for MHTG is therefore packed compact, with trays sized to your drawer and oven rather than to a large menu. For larger types that need a high loader, airside catering delivery is arranged with your handling agent, and the aircraft provisioning list is agreed against the tail before the slot. Tell us the type and we adjust the load: fewer hot items for a one-oven cabin, more cold plates for a tight turn.

About the airportMHTG / TGU

About Toncontín Airport (TGU): airport catering for business aviation

Toncontín is Tegucigalpa's historic airport, set in a valley at 3,294 feet. Airport catering here is shaped by the terrain, and general aviation traffic uses the same strip, with FBO services and ground handling services for business jets.

Business aviation

Toncontín is a business aviation hub for the Honduran capital: inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering orders are placed for corporate jets, and business aviation catering is built around small cabins. Executive jet catering suits quick turns, diplomatic flight catering follows protocol, and cabin crew meals are packed on request.

Customs & food import

Customs at MHTG can restrict animal and plant products brought in from outside Honduras. For private flights, we recommend ordering food in Tegucigalpa and checking the rules of the next country before the return leg.

★★★★★CHARTER

“Service planning came first at TGU, with 10 passengers choosing mini sandwiches and individual desserts and an evening cabin service influencing our preparation. Our handling contact received the order details from The Galley Girls, including how the breakfast portions had been grouped. The cabin team could match the sandwiches to the request before moving on to the remaining departure tasks. The order made inflight catering services feel manageable because the storage requirements had been considered beforehand.”

★★★★★BUSINESS JET

“Packing avocado toast components and breakfast fruit for 10 passengers at Toncontín Airport needed careful thought, especially given two separate meal services. I asked The Galley Girls for the desserts in individual containers, with garnishes supplied separately for plating on board. I want an inflight catering company to understand catering handover, and this order gave us a useful starting point. The sauces stayed together in one group, so another crew member could follow the same plating sequence.”

Sophie S. | VIP flight attendant

★★★★★GOVERNMENT

“Clear quantities were essential at MHTG: we had 11 passengers expecting beef fillet with roasted potatoes and were working around a changing departure schedule. When comparing inflight catering companies, I would look closely at packing arrangement after this experience. The Galley Girls suggested separate meal boxes for the sauces, and that choice worked well with our storage arrangement. Separating the main courses from the first service items helped us avoid opening boxes we did not yet need.”

Toncontín: the questionsAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost for a departure slot out of Toncontín?+

Slot length and turnaround are the first questions we ask, because they decide whether you get a hot meal or a chilled one. At Toncontín, plantain chips and a coffee set cost little; a grilled snapper plate costs more. You approve the menu, then the quote.

What is the lead time for a government or delegation flight at MHTG?+

State visits and official flights use plain, sealed packaging, and nothing carries a name, only a seat number. Lead time at Toncontín follows the protocol checks, and late changes are treated as normal. Tell us the tail and the slot.

What should I know about customs for a short repositioning flight to Tegucigalpa?+

Customs at Toncontín treat an empty-cabin leg like any other arrival: declared items, closed packaging, and no plant or meat products from abroad. Ordering crew meals locally avoids the question completely.

Can you bring food to Toncontín for the return leg, or do you cater it from here?+

If you are flying back out of Toncontín, we cater the way home with the same brief: seats, restrictions, galley. Bringing your own food is possible, but the customs rules of the next country may not allow it.

Is catering part of a charter into Tegucigalpa, and what about food import rules?+

The charter does not include food; you order it from us and we invoice it separately. At Toncontín, local sourcing also sidesteps the customs questions that come with fresh items flown in from abroad.
