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

Private jet catering with local specialities from Chillan

Ñuble Region is farm country, and the private jet menu for Chillan follows it. Local specialities such as longaniza from the Chillan area, fresh cheeses and seasonal produce shape the inflight menu we build for SCCH. Private jet food here leans on what the valley grows: tomatoes, avocados, berries in summer, and bread baked locally. We pack private jet platters for the cabin, gourmet inflight meals for the main service and private jet snacks for the legs in between, each marked for re-plating from your galley. Local specialities in Ñuble Region travel well when the sauce comes apart and the cold items stay chilled.

Chillan's market tradition gives the private jet menu its backbone: smoked and fresh longaniza, pastel de choclo in season, empanadas, and cheese from the Ñuble Region. Our inflight menu for Gral. Bernardo O´Higgins takes these local specialities and adapts them to a galley with a small oven. Private jet food from this valley is simple and seasonal, so private jet platters carry cold cuts, cheeses and fruit, gourmet inflight meals carry the cooked dishes, and private jet snacks cover empanadas and nuts for the crew.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Gral. Bernardo O´Higgins Airport (SCCH)

Chillan sits in the Ñuble Region, a farming valley below the Andes, and a jet on the apron at SCCH usually arrives with a crew that wants the local table, not a generic tray. Private jet catering here means Ñuble cheese, longaniza and fresh produce packed for your galley. We also cover inflight catering and in-flight catering requests, plus aviation catering and business aviation catering for executive jet catering movements, diplomatic flight catering when protocol asks for it, and cabin crew meals on request.

About the airportSCCH / YAI

Airport catering at Gral. Bernardo O´Higgins Airport (SCCH)

Gral. Bernardo O´Higgins Airport serves Chillan in the Ñuble Region and handles airport catering needs for general aviation, charter and the occasional official flight. It is a quiet field where FBO services and ground handling services are simple and personal.

Business aviation

As a business aviation hub, SCCH is modest but useful for the Ñuble Region. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering for the odd jet are planned around the harvest and the holiday weekends. Business aviation catering and executive jet catering follow the aircraft, diplomatic flight catering is handled with protocol, and cabin crew meals ride on the same order.

Customs & food import

Chile requires a customs declaration for food that crosses the border, and meat, dairy and fresh produce are controlled. For an international leg out of Chillan, tell us the destination so we pack what can legally travel.

★★★★★VIP AIRLINER
“On this departure from SCCH, 7 passengers had chosen avocado toast components and breakfast fruit, and a revised passenger count needed to be reflected in the order. The confirmation from The Galley Girls showed the main courses clearly enough for us to check the planned service quantities. The quantities of snack boxes matched our service plan, leaving us comfortable with the order before the final briefing. When comparing private jet catering companies, I would look closely at catering handover after this experience.”

★★★★★LIGHT JET
“Menu approval at YAI covered yoghurt pots and fresh berries for 4 guests, leaving us to organise the service around a family lunch request. The Galley Girls updated the canapés in the written order and sent back a confirmation that clearly showed our amendments. My search for "private jet catering near me" led to a practical conversation about final order confirmation. We checked the fruit plates against the same summary, keeping the cabin team and the handling contact aligned.”

★★★★☆LARGE CABIN
“Small packing details became important at Gral. Bernardo O´Higgins Airport: our 11 passengers wanted a cold lunch with cheese and fruit, and we had a small galley worktop. I appreciated the emphasis on crew briefing throughout the private jet catering menu arrangements. The Galley Girls suggested stackable containers for the desserts, and that choice worked well with our storage arrangement. Separating the main courses from the first service items helped us avoid opening boxes we did not yet need.”

Gral. Bernardo O´Higgins: the questionsAsked by crews
How much does private jet catering cost for a crew waiting on the ground at Chillan?+

Start from the crew's day: if pilots reach their limit and the aircraft sleeps over, meals double. How much does private jet catering cost then? It is priced as an order, itemised per dish, with crew meals shown on their own line.

What is the lead time for catering at Gral. Bernardo O´Higgins?+

Order when the trip is confirmed, then adjust. The turnaround length decides what we can cook and pack, and last-minute changes are handled. Call or write any hour, day or night.

What do customs mean for catering with local produce at Chillan?+

Before you take Ñuble cheese on an international leg, check customs. We tell you what can fly out of Chile and pack it in a way the inspector can read.

Can you bring food of your own into Chile for a flight from Chillan?+

Think of customs first: an apple or a cheese from another country can be a problem at SCCH. We recommend ordering local produce and keeping personal food sealed.

Is catering part of a charter into Chillan, and how does a light jet's galley change that?+

The charter pays for the aircraft, not the cabin food. Catering is ordered apart, on its own invoice. With a light jet at Chillan we choose cold items and one hot dish.
