Aviation catering — Port-de-Paix, Haiti
Airline catering, VIP flight catering and private jet catering at Port-de-Paix (MTPX / PAX)
PAX (IATA) · MTPX (ICAO)
The narrow-body reference code held at Port-de-Paix sets the ramp this station works from, and inflight catering here is built around that stand rather than around a brochure of capabilities. AERO GOURMET runs in-flight catering to the galley door by hi-loader, with the same wide-body discipline scaled down to one uplift, one desk, airside.

Inflight catering lead times at PAX
Flight catering sealed and logged to the stand at MTPX / PAX
Ramp access at Port-de-Paix is what a catering uplift is actually measured against, not a printed lead time. Between the sealed cart leaving our kitchen and the seal breaking at the galley door, the apron at PAX sets the pace rather than a generic schedule. Every stage of that route is logged against the stand this narrow-body operation is worked from.
Screening, escort and apron traffic sit between our kitchen and the stand at Port-de-Paix, and the convoy through them is the risk a catering uplift actually carries, not the food itself. We plan the chain of custody against the worst case on that route rather than the average one, so a delay at screening never becomes a delay at the galley. Temperature is logged when the galley catering is sealed at the kitchen and logged again at handover, and the sheet that closes the load carries a signature at both ends.
One coordinator owns the load from the kitchen seal to the aircraft signature.
Pilot meals and cabin service produced for Port-de-Paix (PAX)
Cleared crews behind government flight catering at Port-de-Paix
The flight kitchen that provisions Port-de-Paix runs hot production, a cold larder and a protocol line under one roof, a measured distance from the narrow-body stand this traffic uses. Airport catering at MTPX is planned against that single stand rather than against a bank of gates, which keeps the sequence short between the last tray and the galley door. Every batch that leaves the kitchen is logged to HACCP standard before it reaches the cold chain that carries it to the aircraft, and airport catering in Haiti runs to that same written standard rather than a looser one.
The team that handles government flight catering at Port-de-Paix is the same named crew on every rotation: security clearance on file, on the access list, and trained to the paperwork that travels with a sealed uplift. Catering at MTPX for a delegation or a household movement is worked by that crew alone, never by whoever is on shift, so the chain of custody never changes hands mid-route. Numbers on the roster are not published; the standard applied to it is constant.
Halal airline meals and special meals at Port-de-Paix airport
VIP flight catering, specified per passenger at PAX
From passenger meal boxes to VVIP tray sets, inflight catering at Port-de-Paix follows the cabin, the mission and the season rather than a single fixed menu. Local sourcing draws on Haiti's produce where the route allows it, mixing fish, orchard fruit and dairy into a specification built around what the narrow-body galley can carry. Menus are written to First, Business and main cabin separately, never as one script cut down for a smaller aircraft. Allergen, halal, kosher and medical sets are documented per passenger and per cabin, and produced against that same written sheet on every rotation.
First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Port-de-Paix are plated to a written specification, with VIP flight catering covering à-la-carte and caviar service on request. Presentation is filed against the standing order rather than improvised stand-side, so a repeat rotation is served the same way twice.
Business cabins
Business cabins at PAX run multi-choice hot service in galley-ready tray sets sized to the aircraft fitted here. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately to the roster, so crew meals in Haiti never share a tray line with the passenger cabin.
Protocol & dietary
Household, religious and medical requirements are documented per passenger at Port-de-Paix, covering halal and kosher sets and the full range of IATA special meal codes. Inflight catering in Port-de-Paix produces each of these on a separate line, sealed before it leaves the kitchen for the stand.

Flight catering airside delivery at Port-de-Paix, Haiti
Port-de-Paix works a narrow-body reference code, and that single stand shapes how catering here is planned: one rotation at a time, worked to a fixed sequence rather than a bank of gates absorbing a peak wave. A delegation moving through MTPX is a documentation problem before it is a volume one, and the desk plans for that first.
The uplift reaches the aircraft by hi-loader to the galley door, with our own crew on the ramp from the seal at the kitchen to the handover at the stand. Airside delivery at Port-de-Paix is staged against that one stand, so the route never crosses a second aircraft's turnaround.
One coordinator owns the load, sealed carts travel the whole route closed, and the handover is closed with a signature: airline catering, inflight catering, in-flight catering, aviation catering and airport catering at this station all run off that same single commitment.

Charter and ACMI flight catering at MTPX
On the ramp at Port-de-Paix, the narrow-body stand carries a full three-cabin uplift for charter airlines, ACMI and wet-lease operators, group movements and special missions alike. Charter flight catering here is counted against the loading sheet and staged in galley order, and charter flight catering in Haiti runs to that same sequence on every rotation.
Wide-body charter →
04
Airline and ad hoc catering at PAX
Our crews work the single narrow-body stand at Port-de-Paix as one continuous duty roster rather than a set of separate bookings. Ad hoc airline catering, outstation catering, diversion catering and technical stop catering all run off that roster, AOG included, across a multi-leg rotation without the tray standard changing between legs.

05
Private jet and FBO catering at Port-de-Paix
Sequencing a business aviation movement around the single narrow-body stand at Port-de-Paix means fitting it between scheduled and charter rotations rather than working it in isolation. Private jet catering reaches the FBOs on the field and the GA terminal on the same cold chain and paperwork as an airline uplift, with FBO catering handled by the same crew and business aviation catering worked to the same written standard, business jet catering included, private jet catering in Haiti held to no lower a specification.

“For a last-minute requirement at Port-de-Paix (PAX/MTPX), we contacted them as our airline catering broker. The response time was good and we did not have to manage several local suppliers ourselves. Very convenient for operational coverage. The order was complete on arrival and easy for us to check before closing the doors.”
★★★★★Charter operator
Andres — Charter Planning Manager
“We booked VIP flight catering in Port-de-Paix for a flight operating through PAX/MTPX. Everything arrived fresh, well presented, and easy for the cabin crew to organize before boarding. I would use them again for another flight from Port-de-Paix. The order was complete on arrival and easy for us to check before closing the doors.”

Maria — Cargo Duty Officer
“We had several kosher airline meals on our order at Port-de-Paix (PAX/MTPX) and everything was handled correctly. The order arrived complete and the special requests were handled with the same presentation as the regular meals. A good experience with complex dietary requests. From an operational point of view, the service was easy to manage and required very little follow-up.”

Inflight catering FAQ for Port-de-Paix, Haiti
Crew meals, lead times and access at Port-de-Paix airport
What operations gets asked every week about Port-de-Paix.
Ask operations directly →Working within one narrow-body stand, do you deliver private jet catering to the FBOs and the GA terminal at Port-de-Paix Airport?
There is FBO catering delivered to every FBO on the field and to the GA terminal, on the same cold chain and paperwork as an airline uplift, with no third party named on the order.
Can the specification still change once an order is placed for PAX?
Lead time depends on the cabin count and the mission type, and how far in advance you confirm sets how late a specification can still move; ask the desk for the window on your rotation, since last minute airline catering is worked case by case rather than off a published cut-off.
How far does the airline catering cost at MTPX move with the mission type?
The standard applied to every uplift is fixed, but airline catering cost turns on cabin count, specification and the loading window rather than a flat rate, so the desk returns a quotation against your rotation rather than a price list.
At what point does airline catering reach the aircraft at Port-de-Paix?
The sealed cart leaves our kitchen first and travels the ramp under escort before the hi-loader raises it to the galley door, so airside delivery is closed with a signed handover at the stand rather than at the foot of the aircraft.
