Aviation catering — Laguindingan, Philippines
Wide-body airline catering, VIP & private jet catering at Laguindingan (RPMY / CGY)
CGY (IATA) · RPMY (ICAO)
A 2100 m runway at Laguindingan sets the traffic this station boards, and narrow-body rotations are worked stand-side with the same discipline a wider fleet would demand. AERO GOURMET runs inflight catering, in-flight catering and hi-loader boarding here, sealing every uplift at the galley door rather than at the foot of the aircraft.

Aircraft catering sealed from kitchen to galley at Laguindingan (CGY)
Ramp access at Laguindingan is what decides the loading window, not a printed schedule: every cart is tracked from seal to signature. The apron here runs a narrow-body rhythm, so the catering uplift is sequenced against that traffic rather than around it. Nothing is handed over at the foot of the aircraft; the cart moves under escort until it reaches the galley door itself.

Between the kitchen and the stand at Laguindingan the convoy carries the risk, not the tray sets, so screening, escort and apron movement are planned against their worst case rather than their average one. The chain of custody starts at the kitchen door and does not break until a name is signed against the galley on the aircraft. Every catering uplift on this apron is logged the same way, and every galley catering handover closes with a temperature check and a signature, not a verbal confirmation.
The convoy is the risk we manage, never the food itself.
Crew meals and pilot meals for Laguindingan departures

Airline food supplier crews cleared for Laguindingan, Philippines
The flight kitchen behind Laguindingan runs hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line under one roof, built to keep airport catering consistent across a narrow-body rotation. Cold chain discipline governs every tray from the larder to the cart, and HACCP procedure is the standard every line answers to, not an occasional audit. Airport catering at RPMY and airport catering at CGY draw from the same kitchen, so a scheduled rotation and a diverted one are provisioned to the identical specification.
The team behind government flight catering at Laguindingan is the same named crew on every rotation, not a rotating pool assigned on the day. Security clearance is held on file, access to the kitchen and the ramp is limited to that list, and household service standards are trained rather than improvised. Chain of custody starts at the sealing bench and follows the cart to the aircraft, with catering at RPMY handled to that written procedure whatever the mission.
Halal airline meals and special meals at CGY
VVIP catering to a written specification at RPMY / CGY
Menus at Laguindingan are written to the cabin and the mission, not printed from a single fixed cycle, and they draw on produce sourced from across the Philippines where the season allows it. Fish, orchard fruit and dairy from the wider region sit alongside a specification built for the flight rather than for a dining room, so inflight catering here answers to the aircraft first. Cabin plans shift between scheduled, charter, VIP and government work without changing the standard the kitchen holds. Allergen, halal, kosher and medical sets are documented per passenger and per cabin, and travel with the load as paperwork, not as a verbal note to the crew.

First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Laguindingan are plated to a written specification rather than to a standard tray, with à-la-carte and VIP flight catering options held on file between rotations. Presentation is filed against the standing order, so a repeat movement receives the same cabin every time.

Business cabins
Business cabins at CGY run multi-choice hot service in galley-ready tray sets sized to the aircraft fitted that day. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately and matched to the duty roster before the cart ever reaches the stand.

Protocol & dietary
Protocol and dietary requirements at RPMY are documented per passenger rather than assumed from a general list, covering halal, kosher and the full set of IATA special meal codes. Each set is produced on a separate line and sealed before it leaves the kitchen, so inflight catering here carries its own paper trail onto the aircraft.

Flight catering airside delivery at Laguindingan airport
Laguindingan's single 2100 m runway concentrates narrow-body movement onto one rhythm rather than spreading it across parallel traffic, and that concentration is what airport catering here is planned around: a delegation still reads as a documentation problem, a peak bank still reads as a capacity one. Airline catering at RPMY, inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering in Laguindingan all run off the same duty roster rather than separate desks, so a schedule change on one flight does not stall the others.
Uplift moves from the flight kitchen to the ramp under escort, staged against the apron's own traffic rather than against a fixed clock, and airport catering in Laguindingan is planned stand by stand instead of by a generic timetable. Ramp access is held on our own badges, and the hi-loader takes the load to galley height rather than leaving it at the foot of the aircraft.
One coordinator carries the rotation from kitchen to signature, sealed carts throughout, with a handover signed at the aircraft rather than assumed at the ramp gate.

“For a government operation through Laguindingan (CGY/RPMY), we required discreet state visit aircraft catering. Communication was discreet, changes were handled calmly, and the delivery was coordinated exactly within the agreed window. A professional service for movements where discretion matters. Updates were timely and the final delivery matched the confirmation we had from operations.”

Joseph — Charter Account Manager
“For a VIP rotation through Laguindingan (CGY/RPMY), we used the team for ACJ catering. Everything arrived neatly packed, easy to identify in the galley, and consistent with the presentation we requested. I would happily use them again on a VIP rotation. The order was complete on arrival and easy for us to check before closing the doors.”

Bastien — Airline Operations Manager
“Our charter program used the service at Laguindingan (CGY/RPMY) for umrah flight catering. Despite the large order, communication stayed simple and final quantities were confirmed without confusion. The operation ran smoothly from order to uplift. That made the turnaround easier for both the flight crew and the team on the ground.”

What operations gets asked every week about Laguindingan.
Ask operations directly →Do you know how much airline catering costs at Laguindingan?
Yes, it depends on cabin count, specification and the loading window you need held; our desk returns a quotation against those three rather than a fixed price list.
How do you handle private jet catering at Laguindingan Airport?
Laguindingan Airport routes business aviation through the GA terminal and the FBOs on the field, with FBO catering delivered on the same cold chain and paperwork as an airline uplift.
Can CGY handle VIP flight catering and government flight catering under protocol?
A single narrow-body reference code governs the ramp, and within that, VIP flight catering and government flight catering both run with the protocol file documented per passenger and security-cleared staff on the load.
What halal, kosher and special meal codes does RPMY produce?
We produce halal and kosher sets alongside the full range of IATA special meal codes (SPML), each one documented per passenger and produced on a separate line before it is sealed for the cart.
