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

Santa Ana del Yacuma on the plate: local specialities for in-flight catering at SBL

Santa Ana del Yacuma lies in El Beni Department, Bolivia's lowland cattle and river country, and the private jet menu here follows the savannah and the Yacuma river. Our inflight menu leans on grilled beef from Beni ranches, river fish such as surubi and pacu, yuca, plantain and rice. Private jet food from this region travels well when you plan it: fish is cooked to be finished in the oven, sauces ride apart, and fruit such as mango, papaya and passion fruit goes chilled. Private jet platters of cold cuts, cheese and tropical fruit suit a galley with no oven. Gourmet inflight meals and private jet snacks, such as cassava chips and sweet empanadas, are labelled by seat. Local specialities are adapted to the galley you actually fly, never the other way round.

Think of the Beni plain when you plan food out of Santa Ana Del Yacuma: cattle country, wide rivers, heat and humidity. A private jet menu for {Region} starts with beef, which is the local pride, cooked so it survives the drawer, and surubi or pacu from the river, finished in the oven on board. The inflight menu adds yuca, plantain, rice and a cold fruit plate of mango, papaya and citrus. Private jet food is packed in sealed trays by seat number, with sauce in its own pot. Private jet platters, gourmet inflight meals and private jet snacks are all built from these local specialities for the galley on your aircraft in El Beni Department.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Santa Ana Del Yacuma Airport (SLSA)

Santa Ana Del Yacuma Airport sits at 472 ft in the flat, flood-prone cattle country of El Beni Department, and a trip here usually means a galley that must be stocked before you arrive. Private jet catering for SLSA is built around that: beef, river fish and tropical fruit packed for your aircraft and handed over at the FBO. Inflight catering and in-flight catering orders follow the same path, and aviation catering for business aviation catering crews comes together under one order. For executive jet catering, diplomatic flight catering and cabin crew meals, the brief starts with your galley, not our menu.

Corporate and VIP jet catering at Santa Ana Del Yacuma Airport (SBL)

Business jet catering at SLSA tends to follow ranching, tourism and river-expedition charters into the Beni lowlands. Corporate jet catering and VIP flight catering here favour beef, surubi and fruit, and charter flight catering is packed to your galley. A private jet chef writes a bespoke menu around the aircraft, and luxury inflight catering stays quiet and exact.

Kosher, halal, vegan and gluten free in-flight catering at Santa Ana Del Yacuma Airport (SBL)

Special meals at Santa Ana Del Yacuma are handled as a procedure suited to Beni cooking. Cassava, maize and cheese are everywhere, so gluten free and allergen free plates are cooked on their own board and packed in a separate sealed box, labelled by seat number. Kosher, halal and vegan meals are planned with your order, as are kids meals, because produce in El Beni Department depends on the season and the road. Tell us the restrictions with the tail and the slot, and we write the menu around them.

Airport catering at the FBO or general aviation terminal, Santa Ana Del Yacuma Airport

FBO catering at SLSA is handed over at the aircraft by your handling agent. Catering delivery to the FBO and the general aviation terminal runs on your slot, and ground handling catering and handling agent catering are coordinated so nothing waits airside on a wet apron.

Aircraft provisioning and airport catering at Santa Ana Del Yacuma Airport (SLSA)

At SLSA the aircraft type decides the loading: a turboprop or light jet takes trays through the main door, while a larger cabin may need a high loader, which the handling agent confirms. Galley catering is packed to the oven, drawer and chiller you actually have. Airside catering delivery goes through the FBO, and aircraft provisioning on a grass-edged, wet-season apron is planned around the weather, not around a menu.

About the airportSLSA / SBL

Aviation catering and business aviation at Santa Ana Del Yacuma Airport (SBL)

SLSA is a modest airfield in the Beni lowlands, and airport catering has to be planned around that: general aviation traffic, FBO services, ground handling services arranged ahead, and a business aviation hub that is really a few aircraft on a wide apron.

Business aviation

Traffic into Santa Ana Del Yacuma follows the seasons: ranching in the dry months, tourism to the Yacuma river, fewer movements in the flood. Aviation catering, business aviation catering and executive jet catering adapt with it, with inflight catering and in-flight catering, diplomatic flight catering and cabin crew meals all ordered the same way.

Customs & food import

Customs in Bolivia check animal and plant products entering by air. For an SLSA arrival, that means declaring fresh food, and it is why a locally packed order, sealed and delivered at the FBO, is often the cleaner option.

★★★★★BUSINESS JET
“Despite a small galley worktop, we wanted the 3 guests at SBL to enjoy roasted chicken and seasonal vegetables without a complicated cabin service. With several people involved, The Galley Girls kept the main courses and delivery arrangements together in a concise order update. We could account for the sandwiches before passing the boxes to the cabin team, without a lengthy unpacking exercise. Our brief for private jet catering services was met with a sensible plan for crew briefing.”
Arthur F. | FBO operator
Global 6000
★★★★★BUSINESS JET
“Our priority at Santa Ana Del Yacuma Airport was mini sandwiches and individual desserts for 6 passengers, with a family lunch request shaping the service plan. I asked The Galley Girls to review the canapés quantities against the passenger brief, and the proposed portions made sense. I want a private jet catering company to understand written menu details, and this order gave us a useful starting point. It was useful to see the sandwiches listed separately when checking how much space the complete order would require.”
Nils F. | VIP flight attendant
Challenger 650
★★★★★VIP AIRLINER
“One detail shaped our order at SLSA: several individual meal preferences, alongside a request for a selection of petits fours and sandwiches for 11 passengers. When comparing private jet catering companies, I would look closely at storage requirements after this experience. We changed the quantities of desserts, and The Galley Girls reflected the request in the final packing list. The note about the breakfast portions was easy to spot, and we could brief the rest of the team quickly.”

What crews ask before Santa Ana del YacumaAsked by crews
How much does private jet catering cost for a flight into Santa Ana del Yacuma?+

Price follows what ends up on the tray: Beni beef and tropical fruit cost one thing, imported delicacies another, and customs rules on food entering Bolivia decide which of them are practical. A private jet catering quote for SLSA is written per menu, not per tray.

What is the lead time for private jet catering at SLSA when the return leg is ordered from here?+

Plan the return in the same call: tell us who flies back, which diets apply and which galley equipment you have. Lead time is kept simple because the order is already open, and last-minute requests are handled.

What do customs say about food on a short repositioning flight into Santa Ana Del Yacuma?+

Repositioning into SBL, the simplest approach is minimal stocking before departure and a local order on arrival. That keeps the declaration short, and we deliver to the FBO as with any other order.

Can you bring food on a government flight into Santa Ana del Yacuma?+

Government flights into SLSA often arrive with their own catering, and customs still looks at meat, dairy and fresh produce. If you would rather not carry it across, we cook and seal a menu at the field.

Is catering part of a charter into Santa Ana del Yacuma?+

It is not. A private jet charter price covers the flight; catering is commissioned and billed like any other order. A long wait or a quick turn changes what we pack, so share your slot.
