Aviation catering — Curitiba, Brazil

Airside airline catering, VIP & private jet catering at Curitiba (SBBI / BFH)

BFH (IATA) · SBBI (ICAO)

A single narrow-body runway at Curitiba sets the working rhythm here, and the stand is loaded stand by stand rather than in a wide-body wave. AERO GOURMET runs inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering off one ops desk, boarding by hi-loader to galley height for scheduled, charter, VIP and government flights operating through BFH.

Aircraft catering lead times at SBBI / BFH

Aircraft catering handover at the galley door, Curitiba (BFH)

Ramp access at BFH is arranged around a single runway and a single stand, so the catering uplift is timed to that one slot rather than staggered across several. Every cart clears the apron on the same route each rotation, sealed at the kitchen and logged again at the galley door. Nothing about the sequence changes for a scheduled service, a charter or a VIP movement: the route, the seal and the signature are the same.

Four branded catering carts latched side by side in an aircraft galley, each door closed on a coloured seal.

Between our kitchen and the stand at Curitiba sit screening, an escort and apron traffic crossing the one runway in use, and we plan the catering uplift against the worst of that rather than the average of it. Every galley catering load leaves the kitchen sealed, with the temperature logged at that point and logged again at handover, so the chain of custody is written down rather than assumed. The same convoy discipline applies whether the movement is a scheduled service, a charter or a government flight, because the risk sits in the transfer and not in the galley.

The convoy is the risk we plan for, not the food on the cart.

Cleared crews behind government flight catering at Curitiba, Brazil

The flight kitchen that provisions BFH runs hot production, pastry and a cold larder under one roof, built to HACCP standard from intake through to the sealed cart. Airport catering at this narrow-body station is scoped to a single runway and one working stand, so tray sets and passenger meal boxes are batched to that rhythm rather than to a wide-body wave. Airport catering here still covers scheduled, charter, VIP and government movements off the same cold chain and the same paperwork.

The team behind government flight catering at Curitiba is the same named crew on every rotation, carrying security clearance on file and a place on the access list for this station. They are trained to household service standards and to the paperwork that travels with a sealed uplift, so a delegation movement is worked by people who already know the route from kitchen to stand. Nothing about who handles the cart changes between a scheduled flight and a state movement.

Halal airline meals and special meals at BFH

VVIP catering to a written specification at SBBI / BFH

Menus at Curitiba are written to the cabin and the mission rather than to a fixed cycle, so a scheduled rotation and a VIP movement are planned from the same kitchen on different specifications. Inflight catering here draws on regional produce where the season allows it, described in general terms rather than as a fixed dish, and the specification is filed against the standing order for repeat operators. Allergen, halal, kosher and medical requirements are documented per passenger and per cabin, never assumed from the booking class. Tray sets, meal boxes and plated service are all produced under the same HACCP-governed line at this station.

First & VVIP cabins

First and VVIP cabins at SBBI are plated to a written specification rather than a fixed menu, with à-la-carte service available on request for repeat movements. VIP flight catering here is filed against the standing order between rotations, so the presentation is consistent even when the crew changes.

Business cabins

Business cabins at Curitiba take multi-choice hot service in oven-ready formats sized to the galley fitted to the aircraft. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately to the roster, with tray sets staged in the order the galleys are loaded.

Diet.

Protocol & dietary

Halal and kosher sets and the full range of IATA special meal codes are produced at BFH on a separate line, sealed before it leaves the kitchen. Household, religious and medical requirements are documented per passenger, so inflight catering here is traceable meal by meal rather than by batch.

Aviation catering delivered to the stand at Curitiba airport

Curitiba works a narrow-body reference code across a single runway, which means traffic here arrives as scheduled turns, occasional charters and government movements rather than as parallel wide-body waves. That mix keeps the catering plan built around one stand and one loading sheet at a time, so a delegation is handled as a documentation task ahead of the movement rather than as a queue on the ramp.

The uplift reaches the aircraft by a fixed route from our kitchen to the stand, loaded airside under escort rather than handed over at a perimeter gate. Airline catering, inflight catering, in-flight catering and aviation catering at this station all run off the same ops desk and the same convoy, so a scheduled rotation and a charter follow identical handling from seal to signature.

One coordinator owns each rotation here, carts arrive sealed, and airport catering at Curitiba closes on a signed handover rather than a verbal confirmation.

Government, royal and charter flight catering at Curitiba, Brazil

01
Government and state flight catering at Curitiba
A 1,390-metre runway is what a head of state aircraft or a delegation charter works with at this station, and the catering plan is built around that single approach rather than a choice of runways. Government flight catering here documents the protocol file per passenger, with security-cleared staff and the uplift sealed before it leaves the kitchen.

Royal and VVIP flight catering at SBBI
A private airliner sized to the 1,390-metre runway here is boarded to the same written household specification on every visit, whether the type is a BBJ, an ACJ or another wide-body VIP configuration. Royal flight catering at this station is held on file between movements, with halal and household dietary requirements produced on request rather than assumed.

03
Charter and ACMI flight catering at BFH
Across the single runway worked at this field, the narrow-body reference code is what a charter, ACMI or wet-lease movement is scheduled against, one stand at a time. Charter flight catering at Curitiba covers group movements and special missions on a full cabin uplift, counted against the loading sheet, and charter flight catering here follows the same multi-leg discipline as a scheduled rotation.

Airline and ad hoc catering at Curitiba
A narrow-body reference code governs every stand assignment at this station, so our kitchen plans ad hoc airline catering around the single slot a diverted or delayed aircraft is given rather than a bank of them. Outstation catering, diversion catering and technical stop catering run off the same duty roster, with AOG covered on the same call-out and a multi-leg rotation kept on one specification throughout.

Private jet and FBO catering at SBBI
Fitting a business aviation movement onto a field built around one narrow-body stand means sequencing its slot against the scheduled and charter traffic already booked there. Private jet catering at Curitiba is delivered to the FBOs on the field and the GA terminal, on the same cold chain and the same paperwork as an airline uplift, with FBO catering, business aviation catering and business jet catering all run from the same kitchen.

Scheduled airline

“We used the team at Curitiba (BFH/SBBI) for urgent airline catering after an unexpected operational change. Even with the late change, the meals were packed correctly and delivered within the revised window. We would use them again for another short-notice stop. The order was complete on arrival and easy for us to check before closing the doors.”

★★★★☆

Scheduled airline

Leo — Ground Operations Manager

“We used the service at Curitiba (BFH/SBBI) for airline catering at outstations on a station where we do not have our usual suppliers. The crew received exactly what was ordered, with clear labels and no last-minute chasing from operations. A solid solution for outstation operations. The final handover was simple and there was nothing for the crew to correct before departure.”

★★★★★

Private jet operator

Mohamed — VIP Charter Manager

“We compared options for Curitiba (BFH/SBBI) and asked for an airline catering quote. The inclusions were easy to understand, lead time was realistic, and there were no surprises when the final order was confirmed. Straightforward and professional from quote to delivery. From an operational point of view, the service was easy to manage and required very little follow-up.”

Business jet catering questions at BFH

Diversion catering and ramp questions at BFH

What operations gets asked every week about Curitiba.

Ask operations directly →
Which halal, kosher and special meal codes are produced for flights through Curitiba?

The loader and cart route stay fixed while the menu changes: halal, kosher and the full set of SPML codes are produced on a separate line and documented per passenger before the cart is sealed.

Can airline catering cost at Curitiba be quoted in advance?

The figure a quotation turns on is the cabin count and specification requested, not a published rate, so airline catering cost here is confirmed once the desk has the cabin mix, the loading window and any protocol requirements.

When does an order need to be placed at BFH, and how late can the specification change?

When a rotation is confirmed we ask for the lead time as early as it is known, though a scheduled service and a last minute airline catering request are both worked against the same single stand and the same loading window.

Do you deliver airline catering airside at SBBI?

Yes, by hi-loader to galley height, with the cart routed under escort from our kitchen to the stand rather than left at any perimeter point.

What does private jet catering delivery to the FBOs and GA terminal at Curitiba involve?

We deliver to every FBO on the field and to the GA terminal on the same cold chain and paperwork as an airline uplift, so FBO catering here carries the same chain of custody as a scheduled rotation.
