From a light jet to a full 777, one caterer, one standard
Aviation catering — Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes, Argentina
Airline catering, VIP & private jet catering at Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes (SAZY / CPC)
CPC (IATA) · SAZY (ICAO)
A single wide-body reference code governs the stand at Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes, which means the aircraft this ramp takes sets the loading plan rather than the other way round. AERO GOURMET runs inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering off that stand, boarding by hi-loader to galley height so the wide-body uplift never waits at the foot of the aircraft.

Inflight catering order window at Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes
Aviation catering from sealed cart to galley door at CPC
Ramp access at Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes runs the sealed cart from our kitchen straight onto the apron, so the catering uplift never sits waiting at a curb before it reaches the aircraft. Between the kitchen door and the galley door, screening, escort and apron sequencing are worked as one continuous movement rather than as separate handoffs. What SAZY gives us is a single wide-body stand to plan against, so the loading window is set by that stand's own sequencing rather than by a shared queue.
Between our kitchen and the wide-body stand at Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes sit screening, an escort across the apron and whatever traffic is working the single runway that day, and we plan every catering uplift against the worst of the three rather than the average. Chain of custody starts at the seal on the cart, not at the galley door, so a driver, an escort and a loading supervisor are named against the load before it leaves the kitchen. Temperature is logged at that seal and logged again at handover, and the galley catering that boards this stand carries a signature that closes the load rather than a delivery note that only opens it.
One coordinator carries the seal from our kitchen to the signature at the aircraft.

Crew meals and passenger sets from one kitchen at SAZY
Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes is worked from a production kitchen built around hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol cell under one roof, rather than a satellite unit assembling trays shipped in from elsewhere. Airport catering at this station runs to HACCP throughout, from receiving through the cold chain to the sealed cart, and airport catering staged here follows the same standard whether the flight is a scheduled rotation or a single ad hoc uplift. That single-roof arrangement is what lets a multi-class order for CPC move from kitchen to hi-loader without a second facility, a second seal or a second chain of custody in between.
The team assigned to government flight catering at Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes is the same named crew on every rotation, not a rotating pool drawn from the wider kitchen floor. Each of them carries security clearance on file, sits on the access list for this station, and is trained to the household service standards that a protocol desk expects rather than to a general catering brief. That continuity is what lets catering at CPC move from one movement to the next without a new team learning the paperwork each time.
Halal airline meals and special meals at SAZY / CPC
VIP flight catering, specified per passenger at SAZY / CPC
Menus at Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes are designed to the cabin and the mission rather than to a single fixed list, so a scheduled rotation and a single VVIP movement are not served from the same fixed sheet. Where local produce is called for, the sourcing draws on the dairy, orchard fruit and river fish of the wider Argentina region rather than a generic pantry list. Inflight catering here closes on documentation as much as on the plate: allergen, halal, kosher and medical sets are recorded per passenger and per cabin before the cart is sealed. Menu cycles turn with the season; the standard the tray is built to does not.
First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes are plated to a written specification rather than to a general standard, with à-la-carte and caviar service available on request against that same document. VIP flight catering staged here is filed and checked against the standing order before it ever reaches the galley door.
Business cabins
Business cabins at SAZY run on a multi-choice hot service built to cabin specification, boxed in oven-ready formats sized to the galley fitted to the aircraft rather than to a generic tray. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately and matched to the duty roster.
Protocol & dietary
Protocol and dietary requirements for Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes are documented per passenger before boarding, covering household, religious and medical requests alongside halal and kosher sets. The IATA special meal codes are produced on a separate line and sealed there, which keeps inflight catering for one passenger's request distinct from the rest of the cabin order.

Aviation catering delivered to the stand at CPC
Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes runs off a single wide-body stand governed by one aerodrome reference code, so every movement through here is planned against that one stand rather than distributed across a bank of gates. That concentration turns a delegation into a documentation problem before it becomes a capacity one, and a repeat rotation into a matter of holding the same specification twice rather than rebuilding it.
The uplift reaches the aircraft by hi-loader straight to the galley door, run from our kitchen with airside delivery staged against that one stand rather than queued behind other traffic. Aviation catering and airport catering at CPC are planned on the same sequencing, in-flight catering in Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes moving through the same ramp routing whether the order is a scheduled rotation or a same-day ad hoc call. Airline catering in Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes and inflight catering in Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes both run off that one stand and one badge set.
On this station we commit to one named coordinator, sealed carts and a signed handover at the aircraft, regardless of how the stand's traffic runs that day.

Airline and ad hoc catering at Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes
A wide-body aircraft can be boarded on the single stand that Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes' aerodrome reference code governs, which is what makes ad hoc airline catering possible here rather than a scheduled-only service. Carriers running CPC as an outstation draw on outstation catering, diversion catering and technical stop catering off the same duty roster, with AOG covered and crew meals in Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes boxed to the roster across a multi-leg rotation; ad hoc catering at CPC and crew meals at CPC move through the same kitchen as the scheduled order.

Private jet and FBO catering at SAZY
Our kitchen works the same 2501 metre runway that clears wide-body movements into a private jet catering order for the GA terminal at Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes, run by our dedicated private-jet branch on the same cold chain and paperwork as an airline uplift. FBO catering here reaches the FBOs on the field and the ramp handler alike, with business aviation catering and business jet catering handled without a second standard.

The order came ready for service with no unnecessary packaging or loose items to sort through. The crew appreciated how easy it was to load.

Bruno — Charter Operations Manager
“Our operation through Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes (CPC/SAZY) included a tech stop request at short notice. The uplift was organized around our revised departure and reached the aircraft without delaying the turn. That operational understanding was the biggest advantage. The final handover was simple and there was nothing for the crew to correct before departure.”

Dario — Freighter Operations Coordinator
“For our business jet at Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes (CPC/SAZY), I arranged private jet menu with a few passenger-specific requests. Everything was easy to check and load, and the passenger requests were prepared exactly as ordered. Exactly what I want from a private aviation caterer. From an operational point of view, the service was easy to manage and required very little follow-up.”

Diversion catering and ramp questions at CPC
What operations gets asked every week about Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes.
Ask operations directly →How far in advance does Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes need an order, and how late can the specification still change?
Our clearance on file lets a standing order move through the kitchen on short notice, and the lead time for a first booking is longer than for a change to one already confirmed; last minute airline catering is worked against the loading window rather than a fixed cut-off.
Is airline catering cost at CPC published anywhere?
Our coordinator prices each order against the cabin count, the specification and the loading window rather than a published rate card, and comes back with an airline catering cost specific to the rotation.
Does SAZY handle VIP, VVIP and government flight catering under protocol?
Every movement flagged VIP, VVIP or government at this stand runs on a protocol file documented per passenger, with security-cleared staff and a sealed uplift; VIP flight catering and government flight catering share the same chain of custody.
At which point in the order are halal, kosher and the special meal codes produced for Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes?
The first step is flagging each passenger's request on the order before the kitchen begins, so halal, kosher and any SPML code are produced on a separate line and sealed there ahead of the rest of the cabin.
Who delivers private jet catering to the FBOs and the GA terminal at Chapelco/San Martin de los Andes?
Across the field, our dedicated branch delivers FBO catering to every FBO and the GA terminal alike, on the same cold chain and paperwork as a scheduled airline uplift.
