Aviation catering — Boa Vista, Brazil
Private jet catering, VIP flight catering and airline catering at Boa Vista (SBBV / BVB)
BVB (IATA) · SBBV (ICAO)
A single 2700 metre runway at Boa Vista carries the wide-body reference code, which sets the loading plan for every rotation booked against it: one aircraft on stand, one hi-loader working the galley door, no delay stacked behind a second movement. Inflight catering and in-flight catering here run on that same rhythm, with uplift boarded directly rather than staged at the foot of the aircraft.

Aviation catering from sealed cart to galley door at Boa Vista (BVB)
Ramp access at Boa Vista is booked against the rotation, not requested on the day, so the catering uplift moves onto the apron the moment the stand is cleared. From the sealed cart at our kitchen to the hi-loader at the galley door, the route is fixed and timed rather than judged by eye. Every load that crosses that route at BVB answers to the same sequence, whatever the aircraft or the mission behind it.

Between our kitchen and the single stand at Boa Vista sit screening, an escort onto the apron and whatever traffic is working the runway that hour; the plan for a catering uplift is built against the worst of those, not the best. Chain of custody runs unbroken from the sealed cart to the galley catering handover, with a named driver and a named loader accountable for every metre in between. Temperature is logged at sealing and logged again at the galley, and the load is not signed for until both readings sit inside range.
One sealed cart, one signature, from our kitchen to the galley door.
Pilot meals prepared for Boa Vista rotations

Crew meals and passenger sets from one kitchen at Boa Vista, Brazil
The flight kitchen provisioning Boa Vista runs hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line under one roof, built to feed a single wide-body rotation at a time rather than a bank of gates. Airport catering here is produced to HACCP, with the cold chain held from the larder to the cart and logged at every handover. That same facility is what lets airport catering at this station cover a scheduled service, a charter and a government movement in the same working day.
The team assigned to government flight catering at Boa Vista is the same named crew on every rotation, not a rota drawn at random: security clearance on file, listed on the access list held for the stand, and briefed to royal household standards where a household movement is booked. Chain of custody runs with them from the sealed cart to the signature at the aircraft. Nothing on that team changes between a scheduled service and a state movement except the paperwork it carries.
Halal airline meals and special meals at BVB
Royal flight catering standards per cabin at SBBV / BVB
Menus for Boa Vista are written to the cabin and the mission rather than to a single fixed list, drawing on the country's produce where local sourcing serves the specification: dairy, river fish, tropical fruit and grain staples worked into a VIP flight menu or a charter flight menu as the rotation requires. Inflight catering here moves from a plated first-class tray to a boxed crew set without changing kitchen or standard. Allergen, halal, kosher and medical sets are documented per passenger and per cabin, never assumed. Seasonal changes are built into the cycle rather than left to chance on the day.

First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at SBBV are plated to a written specification, with caviar and à-la-carte service available on request against the standing order. VIP flight catering here is filed and repeated identically rotation to rotation, never improvised on the stand.

Business cabins
Business cabins at Boa Vista take a multi-choice hot service built to galley-ready tray sets sized to the aircraft on stand. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately against the roster, sealed with the same chain of custody as the cabin load.

Protocol & dietary
Household, religious and medical requirements are documented per passenger for every movement through Boa Vista, halal and kosher sets included. The full range of IATA special meal codes is produced on a separate line and sealed before it joins the main inflight catering load.

Aircraft catering under HACCP control at Boa Vista airport
Flight catering airside delivery at Boa Vista airport
With one runway at 2700 metres and the wide-body reference code held against it, Boa Vista carries scheduled, charter and government movements through a single stand rather than a bank of gates, so a delegation and a peak arrival are never absorbed the same way. Airline catering in Boa Vista is planned stand by stand for that reason, with the documentation for a state movement built well before the aircraft is on approach.
Aircraft catering moves from our kitchen to the apron by sealed cart, then onto the hi-loader for boarding at the galley door; airport catering at BVB is delivered airside under escort rather than staged at the foot of the aircraft. Inflight catering in Brazil run through this station answers to the same route every time, regardless of aircraft type or mission.
One coordinator is named to the rotation, in-flight catering in Boa Vista is carried on sealed carts throughout, and the load is not closed out until a signed handover confirms it against the loading sheet.

What operations gets asked every week about Boa Vista.
Ask operations directly →Where can you deliver private jet catering at Boa Vista?
Our delivery record covers the GA terminal and the FBOs on the field, with FBO catering handed over on the same cold chain and paperwork as an airline uplift.
Which factors set the airline catering cost at BVB?
The hi-loader and cart route from our kitchen to the stand sets the base of it; the final airline catering cost then depends on cabin count, specification and the loading window booked, and the desk comes back with a quotation rather than a published price.
What does airside delivery look like for airline catering at SBBV?
We move every load by sealed cart under escort, then onto the hi-loader for boarding at the galley door, so airline catering here reaches the aircraft airside rather than at the foot of it.
Are halal, kosher and SPML meals produced for flights through Boa Vista?
Our protocol coordinator documents each request per passenger and routes it to a separate production line, covering halal, kosher and the full set of IATA special meal codes.
