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 Parnaíba table, packed for private jet catering

Piauí has one of the shortest coastlines in Brazil, and Parnaíba is where it meets the Delta do Parnaíba, the only open-sea delta in the Americas. That is why a private jet menu for Parnaíba reads like a delta menu: crab, shrimp, tapioca, cashew, goat and sun-dried beef. The inflight menu we build for PHB keeps those products recognisable once they are in a drawer. Local specialities that travel well go on private jet platters; the ones that need heat come as gourmet inflight meals with the sauce apart; cashew and tapioca become private jet snacks. For private jet food in Piauí, the idea is simple: one local product per course, plated by you, not reinvented by us.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Parnaíba - Prefeito Doutor João Silva Filho International Airport (SBPB)

Parnaíba sits at 23 ft above sea level on the Piauí coast, a small coastal field where private traffic follows the dry-season beach and delta crowd. Private jet catering here leans on what the Delta do Parnaíba produces: crab, shrimp, cashew, sun-dried beef. For the galley you actually have, we cook and pack it so it finishes in your oven or stays chilled. Inflight catering for the delta season is the same service as anywhere, with local product on the menu. In-flight catering, aviation catering and business aviation catering for SBPB are ordered by phone or email, day or night. Executive jet catering and diplomatic flight catering follow the same brief, and cabin crew meals can be added on request.

Business jet catering at Parnaíba - Prefeito Doutor João Silva Filho International Airport for VIP flights

At SBPB the usual business flight is a small group heading for the Delta do Parnaíba or the Lençóis coast. Business jet catering, corporate jet catering and VIP flight catering for them start with the type and the seat plan. Charter flight catering and luxury inflight catering are the same service with different labels. A private jet chef builds a bespoke menu around crab, shrimp and tapioca, and sends it for approval before cooking.

Head of state and government inflight catering at Parnaíba - Prefeito Doutor João Silva Filho International Airport (PHB)

When an official flight uses PHB, the catering is arranged through protocol, not through the kitchen. Government flight catering and head of state flight catering both mean a named team, a sealed order and a documented handover. VIP aviation catering and state visit aircraft catering are done at the aircraft, with the handling agent present.

Special meals and allergen free inflight catering at Parnaíba - Prefeito Doutor João Silva Filho International Airport

At Parnaíba the dietary question starts with the coast: shellfish, fish sauces and cashew show up in dishes that look harmless. Kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free and allergen free meals are packed in their own container with the card on the lid, never next to the shrimp. Special meals and kids meals are built from the same ingredients as the local menu, minus whatever the passenger cannot have. Cassava and tapioca are naturally gluten free here, which helps; fish stock and coconut milk need checking, and we do.

Crew & pilot mealsOn request

Flight crew meals on request at Parnaíba - Prefeito Doutor João Silva Filho International Airport

Crew meals at Parnaíba start with a different question: where does the crew eat when the passengers are on the beach? Flight crew meals, pilot meals and crew catering are added to the order on request and billed as their own line. Cockpit meals are packed to be eaten one-handed; crew meal boxes are labelled CREW. We can send different meals for pilots, and cabin crew meals are packed separately.

FBO catering and handling agent delivery at Parnaíba - Prefeito Doutor João Silva Filho International Airport

Parnaíba has no queue of ramp traffic, so the catering waits at the FBO desk until your handling agent walks it out. FBO catering for SBPB is a short hand-carry across the apron: your handling agent signs it through the gate, and the trays go straight to the aircraft door. Catering delivery to the general aviation terminal works the same way when the crew prefers to collect it there. Ground handling catering and handling agent catering need only the tail and the slot; the rest is settled at the aircraft.

High loaderLarge cabins, bizliners

Galley-door delivery and aviation catering at Parnaíba - Prefeito Doutor João Silva Filho International Airport (PHB)

Parnaíba is a regional field, and the aircraft type decides how the galley is loaded: door height, whether a high loader is needed, and what the galley itself can hold. Galley catering for a light jet is carried by hand; for a larger airframe, airside catering delivery may need a loader arranged through your handling agent. We pack aircraft provisioning to match the galley, not the menu.

About the airportSBPB / PHB

Airport catering at Parnaíba - Prefeito Doutor João Silva Filho International Airport (SBPB)

Parnaíba's airport serves the Piauí coast and the delta, with a small general aviation terminal and a single runway. It sits at 23 ft above sea level, and the field is quiet outside the dry-season peaks. For airport catering, this means a simple handover at the terminal and a short walk to the apron.

Business aviation

Business aviation catering at Parnaíba is seasonal: the dry months bring beach and delta traffic, and the rest of the year is quiet. Inflight catering and in-flight catering orders follow that rhythm. Aviation catering and executive jet catering use local seafood and cashew. Diplomatic flight catering is rare but handled through protocol, and cabin crew meals can be added to any order. Business aviation hub status is modest, general aviation is small, and FBO services and ground handling services are basic.

Customs & food import

Brazil restricts food imports, particularly meat, dairy and fresh produce, and these rules apply at Parnaíba. Catering sourced in Piauí is not imported, so no declaration is needed. Leftovers from foreign legs may be inspected and discarded; plan the galley accordingly.

★★★★★ROYAL FLIGHT
“My order at SBPB covered a cold lunch with cheese and fruit for 8 guests, with a practical service plan needed because of two separate meal services. I appreciated the emphasis on portion planning throughout the in flight catering arrangements. The Galley Girls gave us an update on the sandwiches before the handover, which helped us organise the cabin checks. The cabin team could match the salads to the request before moving on to the remaining departure tasks.”

★★★★★BUSINESS JET
“Having 12 guests request roasted chicken and seasonal vegetables at PHB meant planning the portions carefully while accounting for a changing departure schedule. For inflight catering services, that attention to written menu details made the order noticeably easier to manage. I wanted clear identification on the fruit plates; The Galley Girls made the packing arrangement easy to compare with the order. I found the canapés without searching through every box, a small detail that mattered during the final cabin checks.”

★★★★★CREW MEALS
“Packing mini sandwiches and individual desserts for 7 passengers at Parnaíba - Prefeito Doutor João Silva Filho International Airport needed careful thought, especially given a small galley worktop. The Galley Girls suggested clearly marked packs for the snack boxes, and that choice worked well with our storage arrangement. We placed the sandwiches in their planned storage area without first having to reorganise all the catering boxes. I want an inflight catering company to understand crew briefing, and this order gave us a useful starting point.”

Questions crews ask about ParnaíbaAsked by crews
How much does private jet catering cost at Parnaíba?+

Cost at SBPB depends on what goes in the drawer and how it reaches the aircraft through your handling agent. Delta crab and grilled shrimp sit higher on the quote, a fruit plate with roasted cashews sits lower, and each line is itemised. Airside access is arranged with the handling agent, so it does not change the menu price.

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

Lead time at Parnaíba is mostly about the passenger count, which tends to move late on beach and delta trips. A seat added at the last minute means one more tray and one more seat label, not a new order. Last-minute orders are handled, day or night.

What are the customs rules for catering at Parnaíba?+

Customs in Brazil treat food coming off an international leg strictly: meat, dairy and fresh produce can be inspected and discarded at SBPB. Catering cooked and packed locally never crosses a border, so the galley is stocked without a declaration.

Can you bring food into Brazil on a private jet?+

You can carry packaged items for the crew, but fresh produce, meat and dairy from abroad are normally refused at SBPB. Most crews stock the galley locally for that reason, and a crew waiting on the ground in Parnaíba can then eat the same menu as the cabin.

Is catering part of a charter flying out of Parnaíba?+

No. Catering is not part of a charter: it is ordered on its own and invoiced on its own. If your private jet charter returns from PHB, the way back is ordered from here, handed to the aircraft at the FBO and invoiced like any other order.
