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

Local specialities from Santa Fe for your inflight catering

Santa Fe Province is the litoral: river, wheat, soy and cattle. A private jet menu for SAAV leans on what the Paraná gives. Surubí and dorado are the river fish, served grilled or as a cold escabeche, and they travel best when the sauce comes apart. Private jet food from here also means milanesa de lomo, sliced cold for a sandwich plate, and empanadas santafesinas, which are baked, chilled and re-plated in the cabin.

Local specialities decide the inflight menu in Santa Fe. Alfajores santafesinos, the thin double-layered ones dusted with sugar, are the standard private jet snacks and suit crews on a short turn. Provoleta, picada boards with cured meats and regional cheese, and carne a la parrilla sliced cold are gourmet inflight meals that need no cooking aboard. The private jet platters we pack for Santa Fe are built around beef, river fish and fruit from the litoral.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Sauce Viejo Airport (SAAV)

A single runway, a small general aviation terminal and long grain-belt weekends define SAAV. We write private jet catering for that rhythm, as aviation catering for the cabin: business aviation catering, executive jet catering for midsize cabins and diplomatic flight catering when a provincial or national delegation lands. Cabin crew meals ride in labelled boxes beside the guest trays.

FBO catering at Sauce Viejo Airport (SFN): delivery to your aircraft

Your handling agent controls the gate at Sauce Viejo, so we send FBO catering to the general aviation terminal and coordinate airside. Catering delivery to the FBO, ground handling catering and handling agent catering all go through the same call, and the order reaches the aircraft on your slot.

Galley-door delivery and aviation catering at Sauce Viejo Airport (SFN)

What you fly into Santa Fe sets how the loading is done. A light jet or turboprop on the general aviation ramp is served by hand with galley catering carried to the door, while a heavier cabin may need a high loader arranged through your handling agent. Airside catering delivery is agreed with the FBO before the slot, with aircraft provisioning matched to your galley and the oven count on board.

About the airportSAAV / SFN

About Sauce Viejo Airport (SAAV): aviation catering and general aviation

SAAV, also known as SFN, serves Santa Fe and the surrounding litoral from the Paraná plain. Airport catering suits the small general aviation ramp, with FBO services and ground handling services working around the harvest season.

Business aviation

Traffic at Sauce Viejo follows grain and cattle: spring planting and autumn harvest bring more movements, while winter is quiet. Inflight catering for these flights uses local ingredients, and aviation catering and business aviation catering stay light for turboprops. Executive jet catering, in-flight catering and diplomatic flight catering are available for larger cabins, and cabin crew meals ride alongside, labelled by seat. A business aviation hub in miniature, SAAV rewards a tidy order.

Customs & food import

Customs at Sauce Viejo follow national rules: SENASA reviews animal products and fresh produce arriving internationally. Catering packed in Santa Fe stays with the aircraft, sealed and listed, so the crew has less to declare.

★★★★★BUSINESS JET

“It was the packing plan I cared about at Sauce Viejo Airport, with 3 servings of a breakfast basket with individual preserves and an evening cabin service to consider. I wanted clear identification on the sandwiches; The Galley Girls made the packing arrangement easy to compare with the order. Keeping the sauces identifiable helped the colleague taking over service understand the order without another long explanation. The galley preparation stood out more than any sales pitch about in-flight catering services.”

★★★★★CHARTER

“Before our guests boarded at SAAV, we needed a seafood starter and warm vegetable sides divided into 4 portions suitable for a tight boarding window. We changed the quantities of fruit plates, and The Galley Girls reflected the request in the final packing list. Our brief for aviation catering was met with a sensible plan for portion planning. We checked the sandwiches against the same summary, keeping the cabin team and the handling contact aligned.”

★★★★★ROYAL FLIGHT

“Good preparation made the difference at SFN, where 4 guests expected chicken skewers with a couscous salad despite a short ground stop. The order made aviation catering services feel manageable because the written menu details had been considered beforehand. The Galley Girls gave us an update on the fruit plates before the handover, which helped us organise the cabin checks. The cabin team could match the side dishes to the request before moving on to the remaining departure tasks.”

The Sauce Viejo questionsAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost out of Sauce Viejo?+

The galley sets the budget. A turboprop out of SAAV carrying four people needs a short list of sandwiches and fruit, whereas a midsize jet with an oven can run a full dinner. Beef, river fish and imported items are priced differently, and you get the figure with the menu.

What is the lead time for private jet catering at SAAV?+

Special diets drive the planning at Sauce Viejo. A child's meal or an allergen-free plate is cooked on its own, so we want those details early with the seat number. Everything else, including last-minute requests, is dealt with as it comes.

How do customs work for inflight catering at Sauce Viejo?+

Ask the handling agent about access before the slot. Catering at Sauce Viejo travels airside only with a pass, and our sealed, labelled boxes with a content list keep the check short.

Can you bring food on board a private jet in Argentina?+

Argentine customs and SENASA restrict meat, cheese and fruit arriving from other countries. If you plan to carry your own food into Santa Fe, expect inspection; local catering avoids the issue entirely.

Is catering part of a charter for a government or delegation flight to Santa Fe?+

No. A delegation arriving at Sauce Viejo books the aircraft in one contract and the menu in another. Our team clears dishes with the protocol office, and the order is invoiced as its own item.
