Catering to your aircraft in Santiago de Tolú.
SKTL is a beach airport where passengers step off in sandals and the ramp is hot. We pack for that reality, with menus built by former VIP flight attendants for the aircraft you actually fly into Santiago de Tolú.
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.
Fourteen years on VIP and head-of-state cabins. Can plate for twelve in a G650 galley and still land it hot.
The one who reads every diet card twice. If it says no cross-contact, it means no cross-contact.
Answers at 5 a.m. when the leg moved overnight. Same-day swaps are her love language.
Sucre Department sits on the Caribbean side of Colombia, and the private jet menu at SKTL follows the water. Fresh fish from the gulf, coconut rice, patacones and tropical fruit are the local specialities that travel well, and each one is packed knowing the galley it will land in.
An inflight menu for Santiago de Tolú works with the heat: ceviche-style plates and fruit boards stay chilled, fried plantain is re-plated, and sauces go in their own pots. Private jet food from this coast is bright, citrus-led and light enough for a short sector.
Private jet platters of sliced mango, papaya, pineapple and local cheese suit a Caribbean departure, while gourmet inflight meals such as coconut-rice fish or arepa plates cover a proper lunch. Private jet snacks are simple: cassava chips, cashews and cold fruit juices. These local specialities of Sucre Department are what passengers ask for when they arrive from the interior.
Tail, pax, diets, timing. One message — no portal, no quote form. Answered at any hour, by a flight attendant.
Leak-proof boxes, marked by guest and restriction, with reheating times written on the lid.
Two minutes out of the drawer. Whatever you ordered for the crew comes in the same delivery, and one clean invoice follows.
A sea-level strip on the Gulf of Morrosquillo, SKTL sees business aircraft mostly in the dry-season holiday weeks, when the Caribbean heat makes every galley decision a cold-chain decision. Private jet catering here leans on what the coast grows and catches, packed for a small galley. Inflight catering and in-flight catering for these flights stay light and sealed; aviation catering and business aviation catering are ordered the way the trip needs them, from executive jet catering for a family party to diplomatic flight catering for an official visit, with cabin crew meals boxed apart.
At SKTL, the people flying are usually owners, guests or charter parties heading for the gulf. Corporate jet catering and business jet catering start with what the cabin holds. Our private jet chef writes a bespoke menu, whether it is VIP flight catering for a quiet weekend or charter flight catering for a group, and luxury inflight catering means fresh coast produce, not excess.
Official visits to Sucre Department are rare but real, and government flight catering at Golfo de Morrosquillo is organised through protocol, not the kitchen. Head of state flight catering and VIP aviation catering are handled by a named team, with no names on labels, and state visit aircraft catering is handed over discreetly at the apron.
Kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free, allergen free, kids meals and other special meals are handled as a procedure on this coast. Seafood and peanuts are everywhere in Sucre Department kitchens, so allergen free orders are cooked and sealed separately, and plantain, rice and fruit make vegan and gluten free plates easy to build.
A sheet per guest. Separate boards, separate boxes.
Sealed, certificate in the same box.
Their own menu, nothing to cut at altitude.
Vegan, low-carb, light — composed, never compromised.
At SKTL the crew often wait on a hot apron between a morning arrival and an afternoon return. Crew meals and flight crew meals can be ordered with the trip, on request and billed as usual. Pilot meals and cockpit meals are sealed and labelled. Crew catering and crew meal boxes keep a clean line from guest trays, and different meals for pilots are available when the operator's policy asks. Cabin crew meals are boxed separately.
FBO catering at Golfo de Morrosquillo is handed over at the aircraft through your handling agent. Catering delivery to the FBO is arranged against your slot, and the general aviation terminal is where we coordinate. Ground handling catering and handling agent catering are one conversation: tell us the tail and the ramp contact.
Golfo de Morrosquillo mostly sees light jets and turboprops, so galley catering here is usually carried up the steps rather than lifted. For a larger aircraft, tell us the type and we plan airside catering delivery around its door height and any high loader the handling agent can arrange; aircraft provisioning is sized to the galley, not to the menu.
Mention it when you orderCertified, inspected, with cold-chain records filed against your trip.
Whichever terminal you park at, handover is at the aircraft, on your slot.

SKTL, at 16 feet above sea level, is a coastal strip serving Santiago de Tolú and the Gulf of Morrosquillo. Airport catering here is simple: a small terminal, a short ramp, and general aviation arrivals that vary a lot by season.
Business aviation at Golfo de Morrosquillo peaks in the dry-season holidays, when inflight catering and in-flight catering orders arrive with weekend charters. Aviation catering and business aviation catering are written for light jets; executive jet catering suits owners flying in, diplomatic flight catering covers official visits, and cabin crew meals are ordered with the trip. FBO services and ground handling services keep a modest business aviation hub moving.
Colombia restricts imported fresh meat, dairy and produce, and aircraft arriving from abroad may not be allowed to keep international catering on board. We source locally for departures from SKTL and ask your handling agent about food already on the aircraft.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“I wanted prawn salad and small fruit plates for 3 guests at Golfo de Morrosquillo Airport, packed sensibly for a cabin team dealing with an evening cabin service. The Galley Girls talked through the quantities of main courses with us before confirmation, rather than leaving us to guess the portions. Our brief for airline catering was met with a sensible plan for cabin service sequence. There was enough information about the snack boxes to brief the crew without making assumptions about what had been ordered.”
“A request for poached fish with steamed rice, 8 passengers, and several individual meal preferences: that was our brief for the departure at SKTL. The storage requirements stood out more than any sales pitch about crew meals. The Galley Girls kept the salads separate from the finishing elements, which gave us control over the final presentation. The desserts stayed together in one group, so another crew member could follow the same plating sequence.”
“It was the packing plan I cared about at TLU, with 3 servings of fresh fruit and breakfast pastries and several individual meal preferences to consider. Our brief for FBO catering was met with a sensible plan for catering handover. The Galley Girls grouped the main courses by service, which was more useful to us than simply receiving a list of dishes. We left the side dishes stored until needed, which kept the first service manageable and reduced unnecessary handling.”
Think of it in layers. Water and a snack bag for an empty leg cost little; seafood plates for a full cabin leaving Tolú cost more. How much does private jet catering cost? The answer is a quote built from your menu.
Government flights into SKTL usually involve a security brief, so the lead time starts with who needs to approve the food. Give us the details early and we sequence cooking around that; late changes are still taken.
Customs matter most for food coming off an incoming aircraft; we start from local ingredients and cook for your slot. Leftover international catering may not be allowed to stay on board, so say so in the brief.
Outside food is allowed on most private flights, but customs and space both apply. On a small aircraft out of Tolú, a cold, sealed order that fits the drawer works better than a bag of takeaway.
Charter pricing covers the aircraft, and food is a separate order. An early slot at SKTL changes nothing about that, except that we pack to be ready at your slot.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
