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 El Salvador for jet catering at ESR

Atacama Region is mining country, and the private jet menu for El Salvador reflects it: simple, robust, built for people who may land after a shift review or a site visit. Our inflight menu leans on what the north of Chile does well. Pastel de choclo, a baked corn and beef dish, is cooked and packed to finish in the oven. Empanadas de pino travel well hot or chilled. Ceviche-style fish is kept cold and sauced apart, and a plate of Chilean cheese and cured meats works as a cold course. These are the local specialities we draw on for private jet food here, always adapted to the galley you actually have. Private jet platters of fruit, avocado and olives suit the dry climate; gourmet inflight meals are cooked, portioned and labelled by seat; private jet snacks cover the long wait on the apron. For El Salvador and the wider Atacama Region the point is the same: local specialities that survive altitude, heat and a galley with little space.

For a private jet menu around El Salvador in the Atacama Region, think desert pantry and Pacific Chile. Avocado, olives, quinoa and Chilean wine country products arrive from the central valleys and keep well in dry air, and fish from the coast is handled cold. An inflight menu here usually mixes a hot main with chilled sides: pastel de choclo finished in the oven, sea bass with sauce apart, a salad dressed only at service. The private jet food we pack is cut and labelled for re-plating, never cooked in flight. Private jet platters of local cheese, charcuterie and fruit, gourmet inflight meals for a seated dinner, and private jet snacks such as nuts and dried fruit make up the typical order. These local specialities fit the Atacama Region's dry climate and the aircraft's small galley.

The three founders, former VIP cabin crew, on a business jet airstair — private jet catering at Ricardo García Posada Airport (SCES)

Ricardo García Posada sits at 5,240 feet in the Atacama Region, a copper-mining town airfield where the air is dry and the sun is hard on everything that travels uncovered. Private jet catering here is planned around altitude and dust: sealed, lidded, labelled for the galley. We are former VIP flight attendants, and we pack inflight catering the way the cabin crew will actually serve it. Executive jet catering for mine-linked trips, business aviation catering for charters, aviation catering for diplomatic flight catering requests: each starts from the aircraft's galley, then the headcount. Cabin crew meals are a separate order on request.

Corporate jet catering here is practical: a chilled lunch, a hot main, a bespoke menu around the passenger's habits. VIP flight catering and charter flight catering follow the same process, and luxury inflight catering is shaped by the galley, not by a standard. A private jet chef plans each order for El Salvador and the aircraft in question.

DeliveryEvery FBO

Ground handling and FBO catering at Ricardo García Posada Airport

FBO catering at SCES is handed over at the aircraft by arrangement with the FBO or your handling agent. Catering delivery to the FBO follows the slot, and the general aviation terminal is where trays are checked in. Ground handling catering and handling agent catering are coordinated so nothing waits on the apron in the desert sun.

High loader and aircraft provisioning: aviation catering at Ricardo García Posada Airport

At SCES the aircraft decides how the order goes aboard. A light jet takes its galley catering by hand through the door; a larger cabin may need a high loader, and we ask the type before we pack. Airside catering delivery runs through your handling agent, and aircraft provisioning is written around the galley's oven, drawer and cold space, not around a standard tray.

About the airportSCES / ESR

About Ricardo García Posada Airport: business aviation and airport catering

SCES is the airfield for El Salvador in northern Chile, in Atacama's high desert. Airport catering for this field copes with altitude and dryness, and the general aviation traffic is mostly business, charter and mine-linked. FBO services and ground handling services are limited and arranged ahead.

Business aviation

Business aviation hub is a big phrase for SCES, but the demand is real: charters, executive trips and aeromedical or official flights serve the mines. Inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering are planned around small galleys. Business aviation catering and executive jet catering are normal requests, diplomatic flight catering is cleared by protocol, and cabin crew meals are ordered with the trip.

Customs & food import

Chile applies strict agricultural and food import controls, so fresh meat, dairy, fruit and seeds from abroad can be refused on arrival. For catering at SCES, that favours local provisioning. Your handling agent confirms what may leave with the aircraft after a foreign leg.

★★★★★CREW MEALS

“Despite two separate meal services, we wanted the 9 guests at SCES to enjoy a selection of petits fours and sandwiches without a complicated cabin service. I want a private jet chef to understand crew briefing, and this order gave us a useful starting point. We described our serving sequence to The Galley Girls and asked for the fruit plates to be packed accordingly. That left time to check the salads properly before the passengers were ready for the next part of the service.”

Irina R. | Chief flight attendant

★★★★★LIGHT JET

“One detail shaped our order at ESR: a changing departure schedule, alongside a request for a cold lunch with cheese and fruit for 5 passengers. The confirmation from The Galley Girls showed the sauces clearly enough for us to check the planned service quantities. It was useful to see the side dishes listed separately when checking how much space the complete order would require. For our team, the strongest part of their in flight catering was how they handled galley preparation.”

★★★★☆LARGE CABIN

“On this departure from Ricardo García Posada Airport, 5 passengers had chosen chicken skewers with a couscous salad, and a family lunch request needed to be reflected in the order. I needed the crew provisions checked against the revised brief; The Galley Girls answered without sending us through another lengthy exchange. There was no need to reconstruct the salads quantities from several messages during the final departure checks. For our team, the strongest part of their inflight catering services was how they handled meal organisation.”

The Ricardo García Posada questionsAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost at El Salvador when the handling agent controls airside access?+

A quote for private jet catering at El Salvador starts with the aircraft's galley and your handling agent's access rules. Fish and fresh herbs raise the cost; sealed cold boxes lower it. Catering is invoiced on its own, like any order.

What lead time does private jet catering need for a short empty repositioning flight into El Salvador?+

If the aircraft arrives empty and leaves with guests, plan for two orders: crew meals now, a full menu later. The lead time stays simple because slot and tail define it. Last-minute orders are handled at El Salvador.

What do customs mean for catering on a long leg out of El Salvador with two services on board?+

The rule at El Salvador is simple: imported fresh food faces inspection, and local provisioning does not. On a long leg with two meals, we pack each service apart, sauce in its own pot, ready to re-plate. The handling agent confirms any declaration.

Can you bring food aboard at El Salvador if the passenger count changes at the last minute?+

Outside food is allowed as long as it complies with Chilean customs, but fresh produce is often refused. For a changing count, we keep a few spare portions in the cold box and relabel. Last-minute changes are handled.

Is catering part of a charter on a delegation or government flight into El Salvador?+

Even for official travel, catering stays a separate order from the private jet charter, with its own invoice. For El Salvador we confirm the delegation's dietary and security notes in advance.
