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

The Gurupi table, packed for private jet catering

Tocantins is river country, and the local table at Gurupi follows it. A private jet menu for SWGI can lean on tucunaré and pintado from the Tocantins and Araguaia basins, served grilled over rice, or as a cold ceviche-style plate that travels well in a chilled box. Local specialities from the region also include farofa, baião de dois with dried meat, and pequi, the cerrado fruit whose strong aroma we pack sealed and apart from other dishes. Private jet platters at Gurupi can carry tropical fruit from the state: cupuaçu, mango, pineapple and passion fruit. For an inflight menu that reads as Tocantins, think cheese bread, tapioca crepes and sweet doce de leite. Gourmet inflight meals and private jet snacks built from this region keep the cabin feeling local, and private jet food from Tocantins holds up well when the oven and the sauce pot are planned for the galley you have.

What does Tocantins taste like at 1,148 ft in the cerrado? Mostly river fish, sun-ripened fruit and slow-cooked rice dishes. The private jet menu for Gurupi starts there: tucunaré or pintado fillet, baked rather than fried so it re-plates cleanly, with the sauce in its own pot. Our inflight menu also draws on regional comfort food such as galinhada, chicken and rice scented with saffron-yellow turmeric, and pão de queijo for the cabin crew. Local specialities from Tocantins and the wider Brazilian interior pair with cold private jet platters of tropical fruit and cheese. Private jet snacks like roasted cashews, banana chips and brigadeiro travel without fuss. Gourmet inflight meals shaped by this region need no special galley, just a note on how each dish finishes, and private jet food from the cerrado keeps its character on a long leg.

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

Gurupi Airport sits at 1,148 ft in the Tocantins cerrado, a field where the afternoon heat decides how a tray should be packed before it reaches the aircraft. Private jet catering for SWGI is planned around that heat: chilled items kept cold, hot dishes finished in the oven you actually have. Whether the trip calls for inflight catering for a farm-owner charter or aviation catering for a positioning leg, the brief starts with the type and the galley. Business aviation catering and executive jet catering orders are handed to your handling agent at the FBO. Diplomatic flight catering is cleared by protocol first, and cabin crew meals are ordered on request like the rest.

Business aviationOur core

Business jet & VIP jet catering at Gurupi Airport

Business jet catering at Gurupi usually serves landowners, farm managers and regional executives flying light or mid-size aircraft. Corporate jet catering here means a short, clear brief: headcount, galley, and who dislikes what. VIP flight catering and charter flight catering follow the same route, with a private jet chef writing a bespoke menu around river fish or beef from Tocantins. Luxury inflight catering at SWGI starts from local produce, never from a generic list.

Head of state and government inflight catering at Gurupi Airport (GRP)

Official traffic through Gurupi is rare but handled with care. Government flight catering starts with the protocol office's list. For head of state flight catering and state visit aircraft catering, we assign a named team and keep traceability on every item. VIP aviation catering for SWGI is quiet by design: sealed boxes, seat numbers only, and delivery at the FBO.

DeliveryEvery FBO

Ground handling and FBO catering at Gurupi Airport

At SWGI the handover is straightforward: the FBO or the general aviation terminal receives the order, and your handling agent opens the way to the apron. FBO catering and catering delivery to the FBO run through that agent. Ground handling catering is confirmed before the slot, so handling agent catering never turns into a surprise at the gate.

High loaderLarge cabins, bizliners

Large cabin jet catering with a high loader at Gurupi Airport (GRP)

Most aircraft that call at Gurupi are light and mid-size, and the galley you have decides how we load. Galley catering for SWGI is packed to the type: door height, trolley or drawer, oven or none. Airside catering delivery is arranged with your handling agent, who opens the gate onto the apron. Aircraft provisioning for a larger type is agreed beforehand so a high loader is confirmed, not hoped for. Tell us the tail and the galley and we pack to that.

About the airportSWGI / GRP

About Gurupi Airport: business aviation and airport catering

Gurupi Airport serves southern Tocantins, an agricultural region where private flying keeps landowners and business people connected. As an airport catering stop, SWGI has a modest general aviation presence, with FBO services and ground handling services for visiting aircraft. Catering here is planned around a short turn.

Business aviation

Gurupi is not a major business aviation hub, but it handles steady agribusiness traffic through the cerrado. Inflight catering and in-flight catering here are planned around dry season and rain season, when heat or storms change what can be served. Aviation catering and business aviation catering orders for executive jet catering follow your handling agent's slot. Diplomatic flight catering is rare but cleared by protocol first, and cabin crew meals are added on request.

Customs & food import

Brazil controls food imports, and Gurupi follows national rules on meat, dairy and plant products. Arriving internationally, declare any food on board and expect inspection. Domestic legs avoid the issue, and locally sourced catering clears without delay. Your handling agent at the FBO can confirm what applies to your flight.

“An order of mini sandwiches and individual desserts for 3 people at Gurupi Airport had to be organised around a late menu amendment. Our handling contact received the order details from The Galley Girls, including how the breakfast portions had been grouped. For our team, the strongest part of their inflight catering was how they handled catering handover. We could account for the fruit plates before passing the boxes to the cabin team, without a lengthy unpacking exercise.”

★★★★★LARGE CABIN

“Working around a changing departure schedule at SWGI, I asked for poached fish with steamed rice in portions appropriate for our 3 passengers. The order made in-flight catering feel manageable because the cabin service sequence had been considered beforehand. We changed the quantities of main courses, and The Galley Girls reflected the request in the final packing list. There was no need to reconstruct the desserts quantities from several messages during the final departure checks.”

★★★★★BUSINESS JET

“Breakfast was already sorted; at GRP, the next request was a breakfast basket with individual preserves for 4 guests, with a family lunch request to work around. With vip inflight catering, careful attention to catering handover matters as much to our crew as the menu itself. The Galley Girls labelled the side dishes in line with our brief, so the cabin team could identify the relevant portions quickly. We could distinguish the sauces at a glance instead of lifting lids just to establish what belonged to each service.”

The Gurupi questionsAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost at Gurupi, and how does the handling agent and airside access affect it?+

Ask your handling agent at the FBO what access they arrange for the delivery vehicle, then tell us. At Gurupi that access detail, plus the dishes you choose, makes up the cost of private jet catering. River fish and cerrado fruit sit at different prices from imported cheese, so the cost depends on what you order and how it is packed.

What is the lead time for private jet catering at Gurupi when the passenger count changes at the last minute?+

A passenger list that moves on the day is normal for the business traffic at SWGI. We pack to the seat number, so a late addition means a new box with a new number rather than a reshuffled tray. Last-minute changes are handled by phone or email, day or night, and your handling agent receives the updated list at the FBO.

How do customs rules and crew duty time on the ground shape catering at Gurupi?+

A crew with a long duty day and a tight turn cannot wait around for food, which is why crew meal boxes are ready to eat the moment they arrive at the apron. Customs rules for Brazil restrict many animal and plant products brought in from abroad, so buying locally in Tocantins keeps the galley clear. Special items can be arranged, but we note them with your handling agent first.

Can you bring food from home to Gurupi, and what about customs and food-import rules for Brazil?+

If your guests insist on a specific brand from home, say so when you order. Brazilian import rules decide what clears, and Gurupi follows them without exception. Packaged goods in original wrapping usually travel better than fresh items. We can often match a home favourite with a local version, packed and labelled for your cabin.

Is catering part of a charter into Gurupi, and what about the return leg ordered from here for the way back?+

Catering stays outside the charter contract and is a separate order with a separate invoice. If your return from Gurupi needs a menu, order it with us ahead of the slot. We hand it to your handling agent at the FBO, packed for the galley and labelled by seat number.
