Catering to your aircraft in Paz de Ariporo.
SKPZ has a quiet apron and long, flat afternoons, and the wet season decides many departures. We prepare catering by crew, for crew, and hand it over at the aircraft on your slot.
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.
Casanare is cattle country, and the private jet menu for Paz de Ariporo leans on it. Carne a la llanera, grilled beef cut thin over a wood fire, travels well as a chilled sliced platter or a hot main finished in the galley oven. Local specialities such as mamona (the roasted young calf of the plains), plantain, yuca and arepas fill out the inflight menu without needing anything exotic from the galley.
Private jet platters from the llanos are built around what keeps: sliced llanero beef, cold cassava and plantain, fresh tropical fruit from the Casanare region. Gourmet inflight meals can include hot mains with the sauce apart, and private jet snacks run to cheese, arepas and fruit. Private jet food at Paz de Ariporo stays honest to the savanna: heat, humidity and a long afternoon on the apron decide what we pack.

Paz de Ariporo sits on the open llanos of Casanare, where cattle ranches and oil business bring light aircraft and the occasional corporate jet to SKPZ. Private jet catering here is planned around a small apron and a galley that rarely sees a full service: we cook, pack and label for the aircraft you actually fly, and hand it over through the FBO or your handling agent. The same brief covers inflight catering for the cabin and cabin crew meals for the flight deck. In-flight catering at SKPZ is ordered by phone or email, 24/7, and aviation catering for a Casanare trip is often a short, precise list.
Business jet catering at Paz de Ariporo usually serves a ranching or energy-sector party of four to eight on a light or midsize aircraft. Corporate jet catering here means a cold lunch on arrival and a hot dinner for the return, with a private jet chef cooking a bespoke menu around local beef. VIP flight catering and charter flight catering follow the same plan, and luxury inflight catering stays simple: good ingredients, labelled by seat.
When an official party flies into SKPZ, government flight catering is a procedure: a named team, labelled trays, quiet handover at the aircraft. Head of state flight catering and VIP aviation catering follow protocol, and state visit aircraft catering is agreed in advance, never improvised at the apron.
Special meals at Paz de Ariporo are a procedure, not a promise. Llanero cooking hides allergens in marinades, sauces and fried sides, so every kosher, halal, vegan, gluten free or allergen free plate is cooked on its own board and sealed in its own box. Kids meals follow the same route: a plain version of the local dish, packed apart from the guest trays.
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 SKPZ the crew often waits on a quiet apron, so crew meals arrive in sealed boxes, on request and invoiced with the order. Flight crew meals and pilot meals are different dishes when required, crew catering is labelled by role, cockpit meals travel dry, and crew meal boxes slot into the jumpseat locker. We write different meals for pilots into the order when the captain and first officer should not share a dish.
We deliver FBO catering to SKPZ, to the general aviation terminal, and the handling agent takes it airside. Catering delivery to the FBO is confirmed beforehand, ground handling catering is coordinated with the team on site, and handling agent catering stays as simple as a name and a tail number.
A light jet or turboprop at SKPZ rarely needs a high loader, but when a larger aircraft calls, galley catering and airside catering delivery are planned around its door height and the apron available. Aircraft provisioning starts with the type: trolleys, carts or hand-carried boxes, agreed with your handling agent before the slot.
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.
Allergen sheet per guest, halal and kosher on request, sealed and labelled.
Itemised and trip-report ready, sent after the leg.
Paz de Ariporo Airport (SKPZ / PZA) serves the town and the cattle plains of Casanare, with a simple apron and the airport catering needs of a small general aviation field. It is not a big hub, but crews who fly here need food that travels, and a plan that works with a single FBO.
Business aviation at Paz de Ariporo is driven by ranching and energy. Inflight catering and in-flight catering for these trips are simple and fresh, and aviation catering is a short list. Business aviation catering, executive jet catering and diplomatic flight catering all follow the brief, and cabin crew meals are boxed for the flight deck. FBO services and ground handling services are small but reliable, and SKPZ is a general aviation field, not a business aviation hub.
Colombia's customs and the ICA control the import of fresh meat, dairy, fruit and vegetables, so we cook in-country and keep to local produce. For international arrivals at SKPZ, your handling agent confirms what may stay on board, and we avoid anything that would need declaring.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“A request for vegetarian wraps and colourful salads, 12 passengers, and limited fridge space: that was our brief for the departure at SKPZ. The Galley Girls kept the main courses separate from the finishing elements, which gave us control over the final presentation. It made a difference to have the breakfast portions ready without cluttering the galley work area during preparation. The final order confirmation stood out more than any sales pitch about in flight catering.”
“Passenger preferences led us to a selection of petits fours and sandwiches at PZA; 5 portions were needed, with a late menu amendment factored into preparation. The side dishes came from The Galley Girls in compact food boxes, with a packing list that matched the contents. I could hand the salads to a colleague with a short explanation instead of unpacking the whole order. For inflight catering services, that attention to packing arrangement made the order noticeably easier to manage.”
“As the person coordinating poached fish with steamed rice for 11 passengers at Paz de Ariporo Airport, I needed an arrangement that considered several individual meal preferences. The Galley Girls confirmed the handover contact and identified the fruit plates, making the catering delivery easier for our team to track. I want an inflight catering company to understand catering handover, and this order gave us a useful starting point. The canapés went straight to the right colleague instead of circulating between several people during the turnaround.”
A halal chicken main for one guest costs differently from a shared beef platter for six, because the dish is sourced and packed separately. How much does private jet catering cost at Paz de Ariporo? It is priced per menu, with special meals itemised, and invoiced like any order.
What decides lead time at Paz de Ariporo is the dish, not the paperwork: seasonal fruit and local beef come first, and last-minute requests are handled with a lighter version of the same menu.
Customs for food at SKPZ follow Colombian import rules, so we keep to local products and give your handler a clear list. The season matters as much: dry-season mornings are calm, wet-season afternoons are not.
Bringing your own food is possible, but airside access at Paz de Ariporo runs through the handling agent, and imported fresh items can raise customs questions. Ordering locally avoids both.
The charter contract does not include food; it is a separate order. A late addition of two guests at SKPZ simply becomes two more trays, handled and invoiced with the rest.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
