Catering to your aircraft in Caruaru.
Caruaru is a quiet general aviation field on the agreste plateau, busiest in June. Tell us the tail and the seat plan and we pack for the aircraft, with the handover at your FBO.
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.
Fourteen years on VIP and head-of-state cabins. Can plate for twelve in a G650 galley and still land it hot.
The one who reads every diet card twice. If it says no cross-contact, it means no cross-contact.
Answers at 5 a.m. when the leg moved overnight. Same-day swaps are her love language.
Caruaru is the agreste, the dry, higher belt between the Pernambuco coast and the sertão, and its table shows it. A private jet menu for Pernambuco here is built on local specialities: carne de sol and charque, macaxeira (cassava) in every form, queijo coalho, cuscuz, and in June the corn season, with pamonha, canjica and bolo de milho. An inflight menu from this region has to survive the cabin, so the cassava stays crisp in a separate box and the cheese travels to be grilled or served cold.
Private jet food at Caruaru is regional and honest: sun-dried beef, farm cheese, tapioca, and corn sweets in the festival weeks. We turn these local specialities into private jet platters, gourmet inflight meals and private jet snacks that can be served without a galley chef. Pernambuco cooking is generous with sauce and fat, so we pack accompaniments apart and write the finishing steps on the box.

Two minutes out of the drawer. Whatever you ordered for the crew comes in the same delivery, and one clean invoice follows.
Caruaru Airport sits at 1,891 ft in the Pernambuco agreste, a cooler, drier plateau than the coast, and business jets arrive here mostly for the textile trade and the June festivals. For private jet catering at SNRU we cook for the galley you actually have, and we pack inflight catering that suits a short northeastern sector. In-flight catering here leans on regional produce, aviation catering paperwork stays light for domestic legs, and business aviation catering for the textile and festival crowd is arranged around your slot. Executive jet catering, diplomatic flight catering for official visits and cabin crew meals are all ordered with the trip.
Business jet catering at Caruaru is usually a small cabin and a short sector: corporate jet catering for garment-trade visits, VIP flight catering for owners heading to the festival, and charter flight catering that arrives with its own brief. Luxury inflight catering here means a private jet chef writing a bespoke menu around regional produce, cassava, cheese and charque, rather than imported trays.
Official visits to Pernambuco sometimes land at SNRU, and government flight catering follows the delegation's brief. Head of state flight catering and VIP aviation catering mean traceable ingredients and quiet handover; state visit aircraft catering is agreed in advance with your handling agent.
Northeastern cooking leans on dairy, wheat flour farofa and shellfish stock, so for Caruaru we check each dish against the diet card before it is packed. Special meals at SNRU are handled as a procedure, not a label: kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free, allergen free and kids meals each get their own board and box, and cassava and corn dishes make gluten free service easier here than on most fields.
A sheet per guest. Separate boards, separate boxes.

Vegan, low-carb, light — composed, never compromised.
For the crew landing at Caruaru, meals are an on-request line, added to the order and billed with everything else. Flight crew meals are packed for a short turnaround, and pilot meals can differ between captain and first officer when the operator asks for it, with different meals for pilots marked on the box. Crew catering here uses regional dishes that eat well cold, cockpit meals come in one-hand packs, and crew meal boxes are sealed and labelled. Cabin crew meals follow the same rule: sit-down food is easy to find, fast food is not.
FBO catering at Caruaru means a handover at the general aviation terminal or at the aircraft, arranged with your handling agent. Catering delivery to the FBO is coordinated with ground handling catering so the boxes meet the crew at the door; handling agent catering is simply a named contact for the day.
Business jets at Caruaru are small enough for hand loading, so galley catering is carried to the door in boxes and drawers sized for the aircraft. If a larger type arrives, we flag it in advance so airside catering delivery and aircraft provisioning can be planned with the handling agent, including whether a high loader is needed.
Mention it when you orderCertified, inspected, with cold-chain records filed against your trip.
Whichever terminal you park at, handover is at the aircraft, on your slot.

Caruaru Airport is a regional general aviation field in the Pernambuco agreste, serving the city's garment and trade economy and the June festival season. Airport catering here is small and local: a handful of aircraft, short stays, and ingredients from the surrounding region.
The field is general aviation in character: a small apron, quick turnarounds, strong June traffic. FBO services and ground handling services are limited, so we coordinate in advance. Inflight catering and in-flight catering for the cabin, aviation catering for the paperwork, business aviation catering for corporate trips, executive jet catering for owners, diplomatic flight catering for official visits and cabin crew meals for the crew are all available. Caruaru is a business aviation hub of the agreste, not a large one.
Customs rules in Brazil mean imported food on an aircraft can be inspected or seized. For Caruaru, the practical advice is to order local produce and keep foreign items off the galley list.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“Despite a changing departure schedule, we wanted the 4 guests at CAU to enjoy a mezze selection with flatbreads without a complicated cabin service. I appreciated the emphasis on crew briefing throughout the charter flight catering arrangements. The Galley Girls confirmed the handover contact and identified the sauces, making the catering delivery easier for our team to track. The fruit plates went straight to the right colleague instead of circulating between several people during the turnaround.”
“As the person coordinating avocado toast components and breakfast fruit for 8 passengers at Caruaru Airport, I needed an arrangement that considered a family lunch request. I wanted clear identification on the desserts; The Galley Girls made the packing arrangement easy to compare with the order. The canapés were also listed clearly, which made it easier to pass instructions between crew members during preparation. I would discuss private jet food with them again, especially when cabin service sequence needs careful coordination.”
“Choosing beef fillet with roasted potatoes for 12 people at SNRU was straightforward; the challenge was making it work with a tight boarding window. I asked The Galley Girls to review the starters quantities against the passenger brief, and the proposed portions made sense. It was useful to see the side dishes listed separately when checking how much space the complete order would require. Our brief for private jet meals was met with a sensible plan for final order confirmation.”
Think of the quote as built from ingredients: local agreste produce is cheaper and cleaner for customs than anything brought in. For a short sector out of SNRU, we usually suggest a Pernambuco-based menu, then adjust to the guests' preferences.
A return leg is easiest when it is ordered with the outbound trip: one brief, one invoice, meals marked for the second sector. Last-minute orders are handled, and in June the festival demand for corn products is worth mentioning early.
If the aircraft flies in empty to collect guests at Caruaru, the crew meals can be ordered separately and are invoiced as such. Remaining food from abroad should be declared or discarded; we avoid the question by sourcing locally.
A delegation flight into SNRU usually means a fixed menu and a named contact. If you bring your own food, customs may inspect it; if we cook it locally, the order stays quiet and traceable.
Charter and catering are two separate items. For a short stop at Caruaru, a cold menu is easiest to hand over, and anything hot is packed for the oven.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
