Aviation catering — San Pedro, Côte d'Ivoire
Private jet catering, VIP flight catering and airline catering at San Pedro (DISP / SPY)
SPY (IATA) · DISP (ICAO)
A 1,900 metre runway at San Pedro takes narrow-body operators on scheduled, charter, VIP and government rotations, and every one of them boards from a sealed hi-loader rather than a cart left at the foot of the stand. AERO GOURMET runs inflight catering, in-flight catering and wide-body-standard uplift here, produced off site and staged to reach galley height on the ramp for aviation catering in Côte d'Ivoire and in-flight catering at DISP.

Aviation catering timeline, order to boarding, at San Pedro airport
Flight catering sealed and logged to the stand at SPY
Every catering uplift bound for San Pedro starts as a sealed load, not a delivery left on the apron. Ramp access is held on our own clearance, so the cart moves from kitchen to stand without changing hands at the edge of the airside boundary. That single custody chain is what lets a narrow-body turnaround here hold its schedule under pressure.

Between our kitchen and the stand at San Pedro sit screening, an escort and apron traffic, and we plan every catering uplift against the worst of those three rather than the average. The cart is sealed before it leaves the kitchen, logged again at the galley door, and the crew that hands it over is the same crew that sealed it. That single chain of custody, kept unbroken from kitchen to galley, is what a protocol officer or an ops desk actually checks before they sign for a load of galley catering at San Pedro.
One sealed cart, one custody chain, one signature at the galley door.
Flight kitchen and crew meals for San Pedro (SPY)

Pilot meals and cleared production crews for DISP
The flight kitchen that provisions San Pedro runs hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line under one roof, held to a single cold chain from mixing to seal. Airport catering at SPY and airport catering at DISP are planned from that one production line rather than split across satellite units, which keeps a narrow-body rotation on one HACCP standard from tray assembly to cart close. Every batch produced for the flight kitchen at SPY carries the same documentation, whatever the cabin it is destined for.
The team that handles government flight catering at San Pedro is the same named crew every rotation: security clearance on file, listed on the access roster, and trained to household service standards before they touch a sealed uplift. That continuity matters more than headcount on a single-stand field, where the same hands close the cart, escort it and hand it over at the galley door. Nothing about a household or a delegation moves through a rotating pool of casual staff here.
Halal airline meals and special meals at San Pedro, Côte d'Ivoire
Royal flight catering standards per cabin at San Pedro airport
AERO GOURMET writes every menu to the cabin it boards and the mission it flies, not to a single fixed offer repeated on every rotation. Local sourcing draws on Côte d'Ivoire's coastal produce — fish, tropical fruit, dairy landed through the region — worked into a specification rather than a fixed dish list, and adjusted with the season where the ingredient calls for it. Inflight catering at San Pedro is documented per passenger for allergen, halal, kosher and medical requirements, labelled by cabin before it is sealed. That labelling travels with the cart, not as a separate note handed over afterwards.

First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at San Pedro: VIP flight catering plated to a written specification, with à-la-carte service available on request at the stand. The standard travels intact whether the movement lands at the airport name, at SPY, or on a household rotation.

Business cabins
Business cabins at DISP: multi-choice hot service built in galley-ready tray sets, sized to the aircraft fitted at the stand. Crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately to the roster, so cabin crew meals never share a tray set with the cargo they serve.

Protocol & dietary
Household, religious and medical requirements are documented per passenger at San Pedro, covering halal and kosher sets and the full range of IATA special meal codes. Every one of those trays is produced on a separate line and sealed before it leaves it, which is what keeps inflight catering at SPY auditable meal by meal.

Cold chain and HACCP for aircraft catering at San Pedro
Flight catering airside delivery at San Pedro
San Pedro operates a single narrow-body stand off one runway, which turns scheduled, charter and government movements through the same piece of ramp rather than spreading them across parallel gates. That concentration makes documentation the constraint here, not volume: a delegation on the same rotation as a scheduled service still needs its own sealed uplift and its own paperwork trail, worked through one stand rather than through separate aprons.
The uplift reaches the aircraft by hi-loader, boarded directly to galley height rather than left at the foot of the stand, on a route held under our own ramp access from the flight kitchen to the airside boundary. Airline catering at DISP and airport catering at San Pedro are planned stand by stand rather than gate by gate, because the single stand is the one point every movement passes through. Inflight catering in San Pedro and in-flight catering at SPY both run off that same route, whatever the mission behind them.
One coordinator carries the rotation from seal to signature, so aviation catering in San Pedro closes on a single handover rather than a chain of separate ones.

“For a last-minute requirement at San Pedro (SPY/DISP), we contacted them as our airline catering broker. They understood airline operations and kept communication short, clear, and useful. Very convenient for operational coverage. That made the turnaround easier for both the flight crew and the team on the ground. From an operational point of view, the service was easy to manage and required very little follow-up.”

What operations gets asked every week about San Pedro.
Ask operations directly →San Pedro — how much does airline catering cost for a rotation through this station?

How far does airline catering at San Pedro travel before it reaches the aircraft?
The hi-loader standard we hold governs the answer: airline catering here moves by airside delivery on a hi-loader straight to galley height, with no handoff at the foot of the stand.
What governs VIP flight catering and government flight catering at SPY?
There is a single named protocol line at this station, so VIP flight catering and government flight catering at SPY run under the same access-controlled procedure, whatever the mission.
Do you deliver private jet catering to the FBOs and the GA terminal at DISP?
Yes, on the same cold chain and paperwork as an airline uplift, with private jet catering and FBO catering reaching every FBO on the field and the GA terminal alike.
