Aviation catering — Cavite, Philippines
Hi-loader airline catering, VIP flight catering and private jet catering at Cavite (RPLS / SGL)
SGL (IATA) · RPLS (ICAO)
Our kitchen provisions the single narrow-body reference stand at Cavite, boarding aircraft through the galley door rather than delivering to the tarmac below it. Inflight catering and in-flight catering here move by hi-loader straight to cabin height, so a wide-body uplift or a scheduled main-cabin rotation clears the ramp on one sealed handover, airside, at RPLS.

Inflight catering order window at SGL
Aviation catering from sealed cart to galley door at Cavite airport
Ramp access is what the loading window at Cavite is built around: the sealed cart clears the apron on our own schedule, not the schedule of whoever is ahead of it. Each catering uplift is staged before the aircraft is on stand, so the galley door opens to a load that is already sequenced. What the timeline below shows is the sequence itself, at RPLS, not an estimate of it.
Between our kitchen and the single stand at Cavite sit screening, an escort and whatever else is moving on the apron that hour, and none of it is the food's problem to solve. Chain of custody runs from the seal at the kitchen door to the signature at the galley, with one name against it the whole way. Catering uplift is logged twice on temperature — once when the cart is sealed, once at handover — and galley catering does not leave that record until both entries are signed.
One seal at the kitchen, one signature at the galley, nothing unaccounted between them.
Pilot meals prepared for RPLS / SGL rotations
Cargo crew meals produced to the same standard at Cavite (SGL)
Airport catering at Cavite runs from one production line: hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol cell held under the same roof rather than split across sites. HACCP governs every stage of it, from intake to the sealed cart that leaves for the stand. Airport catering in Cavite means the flight kitchen at SGL provisions the narrow-body reference operation here on one standard, not a rotating one.
The team behind government flight catering at this station is the same named crew on every rotation, not a rostered pool drawn from wherever is free that day. Security clearance is held on file for each of them, access is limited to a fixed list, and training runs to royal household standards as well as airline ones. Paperwork travels sealed with the uplift, signed at both ends, never handed over loose.
Halal airline meals and special meals at Cavite
VIP flight catering, specified per passenger at Cavite, Philippines
Menus at Cavite are built to the cabin and the mission first, then adjusted for season, never the other way round. Where local sourcing is workable, Philippine produce goes into the specification in general terms — fish, orchard fruit, dairy — and inflight catering here is planned around what the region actually supplies rather than a fixed international list. Every set travels with allergen, halal, kosher and medical documentation labelled per passenger and per cabin, filed against the loading sheet before it leaves the kitchen. Nothing is boarded without that paperwork attached to it.
First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Cavite are plated to a written specification held on file between rotations, with à-la-carte and caviar service available on request rather than assumed. VIP flight catering at this stand is documented the same way every time it boards, so the standard does not depend on who is working that shift.
Business cabins
Business cabins at RPLS run on multi-choice hot service in oven-ready formats sized to the galley fitted to the aircraft on stand. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately to the roster, so tray sets and crew meal boxes never share a cart by accident.
Protocol & dietary
Protocol and dietary work at SGL covers household, religious and medical requirements documented per passenger, produced on a line kept apart from the rest of the kitchen. Halal and kosher sets and the full range of IATA special meal codes are sealed on that separate line before they join the load, and inflight catering here keeps that documentation attached through to the galley door.

Aviation catering delivered to the stand at RPLS
Cavite's single narrow-body stand takes scheduled, charter and government traffic on one runway, which turns every delegation into a documentation exercise rather than a capacity one: airline catering at SGL is planned name by name, seat by seat, before the aircraft is anywhere near the ramp.
The uplift travels from our kitchen to the stand by sealed cart and boards by hi-loader to galley height, with our own crew on the ramp for the handover rather than a third party we do not control. Aviation catering in Cavite and inflight catering at Cavite run off the same route every time, in-flight catering at RPLS included, so the method does not change with the mission. Airport catering in Philippines is coordinated from this one desk for every rotation through the field.
One coordinator is named against each load, from sealed cart to signed handover, whatever the aircraft type on stand that day.
Commercial aviation catering for every mission at Cavite
01
Government and state flight catering at RPLS
A head of state aircraft on the narrow-body stand at Cavite is boarded the same way any other rotation is: sealed before it leaves the kitchen, nothing added airside. Government flight catering here runs on a protocol file documented per passenger, with security-cleared staff working the load and no delegation, nation or date named against it on this page.

Royal and VVIP flight catering at SGL
On a runway measuring 2368 metres, private airliners including BBJ and ACJ configurations are worked to the same household specification kept on file between movements. Royal flight catering at RPLS holds that standard across repeat rotations, with halal and other household dietary requirements produced on request rather than assumed, and catering at RPLS logged against the same file every time.

Charter and ACMI flight catering at Cavite
A single narrow-body stand forces every charter rotation into a fixed sequence, because there is no second stand to absorb an overlap: charter flight catering at RPLS for ACMI and wet-lease operators, group movements and special missions is staged to the loading sheet before the aircraft arrives. Charter flight catering in Cavite covers a full three-cabin uplift, galleys loaded in the order they are laid out on board.

Airline and ad hoc catering at RPLS
Narrow-body is the reference code held at Cavite, and it governs every rotation booked through the single stand here. Ad hoc airline catering and outstation catering both run off that same reference, with diversion catering and technical stop catering following the identical duty roster, AOG included, across a multi-leg schedule; crew meals and crew meals at SGL box separately from the passenger load, ad hoc catering at SGL sequenced before the aircraft is on stand.

Private jet and FBO catering at SGL
The runway here measures 2368 metres, which keeps this field within the narrow-body and business-jet range rather than wide-body long-haul traffic. Private jet catering at Cavite reaches the FBOs on the field and the GA terminal on the same cold chain and the same paperwork as an airline uplift, through our dedicated business aviation branch.

“Our flight at Cavite (SGL/RPLS) required HACCP with clear service-by-service organization. The order came ready for service with no unnecessary packaging or loose items to sort through. Good attention to the operational side of catering. The final handover was simple and there was nothing for the crew to correct before departure.”
★★★★★Scheduled airline
Emma — Duty Station Manager
“Our operation through Cavite (SGL/RPLS) included an ad hoc catering request at short notice. Communication between dispatch, handling, and catering was clear throughout. We appreciated how easy the coordination was. From an operational point of view, the service was easy to manage and required very little follow-up. That made the turnaround easier for both the flight crew and the team on the ground.”
★★★★★Private jet operator
Lina — Executive Aviation Coordinator
“We used the team for private jet catering at Cavite (SGL/RPLS) on a VIP trip. They followed my notes closely, kept me updated, and delivered at the time agreed with the FBO. Exactly what I want from a private aviation caterer. Updates were timely and the final delivery matched the confirmation we had from operations.”

Aircraft catering questions at Cavite airport
Diversion catering and ramp questions at Cavite
What operations gets asked every week about Cavite.
Ask operations directly →Is halal, kosher and special meal SPML production documented at RPLS?
Our coordinator files every halal, kosher and special meal request against its IATA SPML code before the tray set is sealed, and that record travels with the load to the galley.
Which factors set airline catering cost for a rotation through Cavite?
The loader and the route decide it: cabin count, specification and the loading window drive the quotation, since we publish no fixed price list. Send the rotation details and the desk returns a figure against it.
Where does private jet catering reach on the field at Cavite Airport?
The handover record shows delivery to the FBOs on the field and the GA terminal alike, FBO catering sealed and logged the same way regardless of which apron it lands on.
When is VIP flight catering or government flight catering handled under protocol at SGL?
Once a movement is flagged as government, royal or VVIP, the file switches to protocol handling automatically: security-cleared staff only, documentation per passenger, sealed before departure from the kitchen.
What does airside delivery by hi-loader actually cover at RPLS?
We move the sealed cart from our kitchen to the stand and board by hi-loader to galley height, so airline catering never sits at the foot of the aircraft waiting to be carried up.
Does Cavite take last minute airline catering, and how far in advance should an order go in?
Every specification can still change close to departure, but the loading window itself is fixed once the rotation is confirmed, so earlier notice keeps more of the menu open.
