Aviation catering — Roxas City, Philippines
Roxas City (RPVR / RXS): airline catering, VIP flight catering and private jet catering
RXS (IATA) · RPVR (ICAO)
Inside a narrow-body reference code at Roxas City, one runway sets the tempo for every rotation this station handles. AERO GOURMET runs inflight catering, in-flight catering and wide-body-grade uplift discipline here regardless of airframe size, boarding straight to galley height by hi-loader rather than leaving trays at the foot of the aircraft.

Inflight catering tracked kitchen to aircraft at Roxas City (RXS)
Inside the single stand worked at Roxas City, ramp access is what decides whether a loading window holds. Our crews carry a sealed cart across the apron and board it straight through the galley door, rather than staging trays at the foot of the aircraft, and the sequence is fixed before the aircraft is on stand. That is the catering uplift as it runs at Roxas City: one route, one handover, one signature.

Between our kitchen and the stand at Roxas City sit screening, an escort across the apron and the ordinary traffic of a single working runway. We plan the galley catering uplift against the worst of that, not the best, so the chain of custody holds even when the ramp is busy.
Every cart is sealed at the kitchen, logged again at the galley door, and signed for once it is on board. Nothing about that changes because the field runs one runway instead of several.
One sealed cart, one route, one signature at the galley door.
Pilot meals and crew meals prepared for Roxas City, Philippines

Cargo crew meals produced to the same standard at RPVR / RXS
The reference code held at Roxas City is narrow-body, and that is the figure our flight kitchen plans against for every rotation on the field. Hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line sit under one roof, run to HACCP, so airport catering here is not built rotation by rotation from scratch. Airport catering in Roxas City draws on that same kitchen, and the flight kitchen at RXS carries the cold chain through to the cart rather than handing it off partway.
Cleared for government flight catering, the team assigned to Roxas City is the same named crew on every rotation rather than whoever is on shift. Security clearance is held on file, access to the kitchen and the ramp is on a fixed list, and the paperwork that travels with a sealed uplift is checked before it leaves the building. Household service standards apply whether the movement is announced days ahead or confirmed the same morning.
VIP flight catering menus for RXS departures
Royal flight catering standards per cabin at RPVR / RXS
Menus at Roxas City are built to the cabin and the mission first, and only then to the calendar: a scheduled sector, an ad hoc charter and a delegation movement do not share a specification even when they share a stand. Inflight catering in Roxas City draws where it can on regional produce, kept general rather than named as a dish, sourced through the same kitchen that runs the rest of the board. Every set is labelled per passenger and per cabin against documented allergen, halal, kosher and medical requirements, filed before the cart is sealed. Nothing served here skips that documentation, whatever the notice period.

First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins moving through Roxas City are plated to a written specification rather than to memory, with à-la-carte and caviar service available on request. VIP flight catering here is filed against the standing order so a repeat rotation is served the same way twice.

Business cabins
Business cabins at RPVR take multi-choice hot service in oven-ready formats sized to the galley fitted on the day's airframe. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately from the passenger load and matched to the roster at Roxas City.

Protocol & dietary
Household, religious and medical requirements are documented per passenger through Roxas City, covering halal and kosher sets alongside the full range of IATA special meal codes. Inflight catering here is produced on a dedicated line, sealed apart from the main load before it leaves the kitchen.

HACCP control for flight catering at RPVR
Inflight catering delivered to the stand at Roxas City airport
Roxas City works a mixed traffic profile off a single runway, which means a scheduled sector, a charter movement and an occasional government flight can all fall on the same working day rather than being spread across parallel stands. That mix makes documentation the constant concern here: a delegation brings a protocol file, a charter brings a group headcount, and both have to be right before the cart leaves the kitchen.
The uplift reaches the aircraft by hi-loader straight to the galley door, carried across the apron under escort rather than staged at the foot of the steps. Airline catering at RPVR and aviation catering in Philippines run off the same loading crew, so in-flight catering at RXS does not switch method depending on who is flying.
What we commit to at this stand is one coordinator per rotation, sealed carts from kitchen to galley, and a signed handover that closes the load. Inflight catering at RPVR and airport catering at RPVR are held to that same close on every movement.

“Our sports movement through Roxas City (RXS/RPVR) required football club charter catering on a tight schedule. The meals were clearly labeled, portions were suitable for the group, and the delivery stayed on time despite a moving departure. A good partner for sports charter operations. The final handover was simple and there was nothing for the crew to correct before departure.”

What operations gets asked every week about Roxas City.
Ask operations directly →How does airline catering reach the aircraft airside at RXS?
RXS is worked from one stand, and every cart moves airside by hi-loader straight to the galley door rather than being left at the foot of the steps.
What does airline catering cost at RPVR?
We price each quotation against cabin count, specification and the loading window booked for the rotation, since no price list is published; the desk comes back with a figure once those are known.
Which protocols govern VIP flight catering and government flight catering at Roxas City?
The hi-loader route into the galley is the same one used for every movement here, but a VIP or government flight adds a protocol file documented per passenger and security-cleared staff on the loading crew.
Where are halal, kosher and special meal codes produced for flights through Roxas City Airport?
A signed production record follows every tray set out of the kitchen, and it covers halal, kosher and the full range of IATA SPML codes, documented per passenger before sealing.
Is there a fixed lead time for orders placed through RXS?
The coordinator assigned to each rotation confirms how far in advance an order needs to be placed and how late a specification can still move; last-minute airline catering is worked case by case against the loading window.
