Private jet catering at Cadete FAP Guillermo Del Castillo Paredes Airport (SPST / TPP), Tarapoto

Catering to your aircraft in Tarapoto.

At Tarapoto the air is warm and wet, the apron is small, and aircraft are often turboprops or light jets with a modest galley. We cook and pack for that galley, with crew meals boxed on their own, and hand over at the aircraft through the FBO.

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

Local specialities from Tarapoto for your inflight catering

San Martín Region is coffee, cacao and tropical fruit country, and a private jet menu for Tarapoto can lean on all three. An inflight menu here is built around what grows within the region: camu camu, aguaje, plantain, river fish from the Huallaga basin. Private jet food from this area travels well when it is kept simple, and our local specialities are packed for a galley, not a restaurant pass.

Private jet platters from San Martín Region start with fruit: pineapple, papaya, passion fruit, sliced and chilled. Gourmet inflight meals follow the local table: juane rice parcels, tacacho with cecina, and paiche when the season allows. Private jet snacks run to plantain chips, toasted nuts and dark cacao. These local specialities keep their shape on a warm ramp.

Business aviationOur core

Private jet catering in Tarapoto for business and VIP flights (TPP)

A typical Tarapoto trip is a business jet or turboprop carrying a small party between Lima and San Martín Region, often for agriculture, energy or tourism. Business jet catering and corporate jet catering here favour cold plates and sealed hot dishes. VIP flight catering and charter flight catering use the same labels, and luxury inflight catering draws on regional fruit and cacao. A private jet chef can write a bespoke menu for the galley you have.

★★★★★VIP AIRLINER

“A request for grilled salmon with a lemon dressing, 10 passengers, and a family lunch request: that was our brief for the departure at Cadete FAP Guillermo Del Castillo Paredes Airport. With several people involved, The Galley Girls kept the fruit plates and delivery arrangements together in a concise order update. The cabin team could match the starters to the request before moving on to the remaining departure tasks. I want a private jet chef to understand crew briefing, and this order gave us a useful starting point.”

Carmen S. | Chief cabin officer — BBJ

ACJ320

★★★★★LARGE CABIN

“Keeping the galley organised at SPST meant planning roasted vegetable bowls with separate dressings for 6 guests with limited fridge space in mind. The Galley Girls suggested compact food boxes for the sauces, and that choice worked well with our storage arrangement. This experience of in flight catering gave us a useful reference for managing portion planning on another departure. The desserts were easy to locate, leaving the crew free to focus on the remaining cabin preparation.”

Pedro A. | Chief cabin officer — private jet

Falcon 8X

★★★★★LIGHT JET

“Getting fresh fruit and breakfast pastries ready for 6 guests at TPP required an order that accounted for different crew meal preferences. Our brief for inflight catering services was met with a sensible plan for cabin service sequence. The desserts from The Galley Girls were organised around the cabin plan, with the later service items kept apart. The starters were reserved for the next stage, so the worktop stayed clear while we prepared the initial dishes.”

Cadete FAP Guillermo Del Castillo Paredes: the questionsAsked by crews

How much does private jet catering cost when I order the return leg from Tarapoto for the way back?+

We do not give a rate in advance. For a return from Tarapoto, the quote reflects the menu, the number of guests and the products in season. Ordering the way back from here keeps provisioning aligned with your crew's galley.

What is the lead time for Tarapoto when the passenger count changes at the last minute?+

When the count changes, send the new figure by phone or email. Lead time for Tarapoto is managed around your slot; we adapt the platters, keep dietary boxes labelled by seat, and confirm the final list.

Does customs affect the menu in Tarapoto when I want one local product on it?+

Peruvian customs are strict on agricultural imports, so we favour regional products for the Tarapoto menu. One local item, say a cacao dessert, needs no import paperwork. If you plan to take food on to another country, check that destination's rules before departure.

Can you bring food of your own for a night departure or an early morning slot at Tarapoto?+

You can carry your own food, but customs and airport rules apply, and a night departure leaves little time to source anything. We prepare to your slot and hand over at the aircraft through the FBO.

Is catering part of a charter for a delegation or government flight into Tarapoto?+

Charter pricing for a government flight does not cover food. You order catering from us for the Tarapoto leg, the protocol office signs off the menu, and the invoice is separate.
