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

Regional dishes of Uberaba for jet catering at UBA

Minas Gerais cooking is built on cheese, pork, beans and slow-cooked beef, and Uberaba adds its own cattle-country weight to the table. A private jet menu for Uberaba reads differently from a coastal one: it starts with local specialities such as pão de queijo, queijo minas frescal, feijão tropeiro and carne de sol, and then decides what travels well. The inflight menu is built around what holds in a galley, so the hearty dishes go in hot with the sauce apart, and the cheese board travels chilled. Private jet food from this part of Minas Gerais is generous, so we scale the portions to the cabin rather than to the plate. For private jet platters we pair queijo minas with doce de leite and goiabada, the classic Minas dessert pairing. Gourmet inflight meals can follow the same logic, with a grilled picanha or a frango com quiabo re-plated in the cabin. Private jet snacks stay simple: cheese bread, roasted nuts, fresh tropical fruit.

If your passengers arrive for the Triângulo Mineiro cattle season, expect them to want the food of the region. A private jet menu at SBUR draws on Minas Gerais: pão de queijo still warm from the oven, feijão tropeiro with its pork and cassava flour, picanha from the grill. These local specialities need handling, because farofa and cassava stay dry while the sauced dishes ride apart. The inflight menu for a leg out of Uberaba can be a cold board of queijo minas and cured meats, or a hot plate finished in your oven. Private jet food here is robust and honest, and private jet platters of cheese, fruit and doce de leite suit a short cabin turn. Gourmet inflight meals use the same produce, cooked and packed for the galley. Private jet snacks cover the rest: pão de queijo, coffee from the Cerrado Mineiro, and fruit.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Mário de Almeida Franco Airport (SBUR)

Uberaba sits in the cattle and zebu heartland of the Triângulo Mineiro, and the field at 2,655 ft sees agribusiness executives and breeders rather than tourists. Private jet catering at SBUR follows that clientele: hearty, protein-led trays, Minas cheese, and cabins that often fly out light. Inflight catering here is planned around the galley of the aircraft, whether it is an in-flight catering order for a turboprop or aviation catering for a midsize jet. For business aviation catering, executive jet catering and diplomatic flight catering alike, we write the menu for the cabin and pack cabin crew meals for the flight deck.

Allergen free special meals and aviation catering at Mário de Almeida Franco Airport (SBUR)

Minas Gerais food hides allergens in familiar places: cheese in nearly every bread, pork fat in the beans, cassava flour in the farofa. For SBUR we plan special meals by dish: kosher and halal are cooked and sealed separately, vegan and gluten free versions replace the cheese and the wheat, and allergen free trays are packed apart from the guest trays. Kids meals stay plain, rice, chicken and fruit. Each tray carries a seat number, not a name.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Pilot meals and crew meals at Mário de Almeida Franco Airport (UBA)

On the Uberaba leg, someone still has to eat on duty. Crew meals are requested with the flight and billed with it; flight crew meals come hot or cold, pilot meals avoid anything that spills, and crew catering is planned around your rotation. Cockpit meals travel in crew meal boxes, and different meals for pilots are packed apart so captain and first officer never share a dish. Cabin crew meals are boxed too.

DeliveryEvery FBO

FBO delivery and FBO catering at Mário de Almeida Franco Airport (UBA)

FBO catering at Mário de Almeida Franco means catering delivery to the FBO: the handling agent opens the door, we bring the trays. The general aviation terminal is where the handover usually happens, and ground handling catering is coordinated with your slot. Handling agent catering keeps the order tied to your tail and your crew.

High loaderLarge cabins, bizliners

High loader delivery for jet catering at Mário de Almeida Franco Airport (UBA)

At Uberaba the aircraft decides the loading method. A turboprop or light jet takes the trays by hand through the door, while a larger cabin may need airside catering delivery on a high loader arranged through the handling agent. Galley catering is packed for the galley you have: one oven, a drawer, or a full chiller. We confirm aircraft provisioning with your FBO so the delivery matches the door height and the slot.

About the airportSBUR / UBA

About Mário de Almeida Franco Airport (UBA): airport catering for business aviation

Mário de Almeida Franco Airport serves Uberaba in the Triângulo Mineiro, a region of cattle breeding, grain and agribusiness. Airport catering here supports general aviation, with FBO services and ground handling services handling the traffic that comes for fairs and farm business.

Business aviation

Inflight catering and in-flight catering at SBUR follow the cattle calendar: Expozebu and the auction season fill the ramp, then the field is quiet again. Aviation catering and business aviation catering serve flight departments; executive jet catering and diplomatic flight catering are handled by name and protocol, and cabin crew meals ride in their own boxes. As a business aviation hub it is small, but regular.

Customs & food import

Brazilian rules on importing and exporting food apply to international legs from Uberaba, and meat, dairy and fresh produce are the usual concerns. Domestic flights within Brazil move Minas food freely. We tell you what can stay aboard before the order is cooked, so customs never meets a surprise.

“The 9 passenger portions of a mezze selection with flatbreads were the easy part; managing a late menu amendment at SBUR took more planning. I asked The Galley Girls to review the main courses quantities against the passenger brief, and the proposed portions made sense. The order made private jet catering services feel manageable because the storage requirements had been considered beforehand. There was enough information about the side dishes to brief the crew without making assumptions about what had been ordered.”

★★★★★LARGE CABIN
“Menu approval at UBA covered vegetable tartlets and a dessert selection for 11 guests, leaving us to organise the service around a late menu amendment. I want a private jet catering company to understand written menu details, and this order gave us a useful starting point. I asked The Galley Girls for the sandwiches in individual containers, with garnishes supplied separately for plating on board. We could finish the salads as each guest was ready, rather than laying everything out at once.”

★★★★★CREW MEALS
“Getting herb chicken with a quinoa salad ready for 5 guests at Mário de Almeida Franco Airport required an order that accounted for limited fridge space. When comparing private jet catering companies, I would look closely at catering handover after this experience. With several people involved, The Galley Girls kept the side dishes and delivery arrangements together in a concise order update. Knowing where the fruit plates were packed meant the crew could begin the relevant checks as soon as the order arrived.”

Mário de Almeida Franco: the questionsAsked by crews
How much does private jet catering cost for a short repositioning flight into Uberaba?+

Think of it as dishes, not tickets. Into Uberaba on a quiet reposition, you might order only pão de queijo and coffee for the crew. How much does private jet catering cost? Less for that than for a six-seat lunch with grilled beef, and the quote reflects exactly that.

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

Treat it as a coordination question: security, dietary lists, seat plan. Lead time for a government flight into Uberaba is set by those approvals, and our team handles last-minute additions without fuss.

What about customs when catering a departure from Uberaba with a tight turnaround?+

A short ground time and a customs check are a bad mix, so we pack plain, labelled and ready. Domestic departures from Uberaba are straightforward; international ones follow Brazilian regulations on meat, cheese and fresh produce.

Can you bring food aboard at Uberaba, or does it depend on the galley?+

Yes, you may carry your own, and many crews do. At SBUR we simply need to know the aircraft type and galley, because that decides whether to pack cold, oven-ready or sauce-apart for the leg.

Is catering part of a charter flying out of Uberaba at night or early morning?+

Think of the charter and the food as two orders. Out of SBUR at an early hour, catering is requested and invoiced separately; we are reachable day or night, so an unusual slot is no obstacle.
