Feira de Santana (SDIY / FEC): airline catering, VIP flight catering and private jet catering
FEC (IATA) · SDIY (ICAO)
With a 1,500 m runway rated to the narrow-body reference code, Feira de Santana takes scheduled, charter and ad hoc movements on one stand worked by a single crew. AERO GOURMET runs inflight catering and in-flight catering here by hi-loader to galley height, with wide-body uplift capability held in reserve and every load staged airside before boarding.

Inflight catering tracked kitchen to aircraft at Feira de Santana
Your catering uplift at Feira de Santana starts sealed at the kitchen and ends with a signature at the galley door, and the sequence between the two is what we plan against. Ramp access is held on our own clearance rather than negotiated stand by stand, so the cart moves onto the apron the moment the aircraft is on chocks. Nothing about that route is estimated: it is the same steps, worked the same order, on every rotation through Feira de Santana.
Between our kitchen and the stand at Feira de Santana sit screening, an escort across the apron, and whatever traffic the narrow-body reference code allows through at that hour, and we plan the catering uplift against the worst of that rather than the best. Chain of custody runs from the seal at the kitchen door to the signature at the galley, with nothing handed off in between that is not logged. Every cart carries a temperature record taken at sealing and taken again at handover, so a delayed rotation is a documented delay and not a guess, and the galley catering that boards is the same load that left the kitchen.
One seal at the kitchen, one signature at the galley, nothing in between unlogged.
Cargo crew meals and passenger uplifts for Feira de Santana airport
Airline food supplier crews cleared for FEC
The flight kitchen at FEC runs hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line under one roof, built to serve a station holding a single narrow-body stand rather than a wide-body apron. HACCP governs every stage of that production, from intake to the sealed cart, so airport catering here follows one documented standard rather than a looser one scaled to the runway. That same standard is what makes airport catering at Feira de Santana repeatable rotation after rotation, whatever mix of scheduled, charter or ad hoc traffic the day brings.
The team behind government flight catering at Feira de Santana is the same named crew on every rotation, not a rotating pool booked per movement. Each member carries security clearance on file, sits on the access list for this stand, and is trained to the household standards a royal or state file requires before it ever reaches the kitchen. That chain of custody is fixed to the people, not just the paperwork, which is what a protocol officer checks first.
Halal airline meals and special meals at Feira de Santana (FEC)
Royal flight catering standards per cabin at SDIY
Menus for departures out of Feira de Santana are written to the cabin and the mission first, then adjusted for the season, drawing on the produce of Brazil's own dairy, fish and orchard supply rather than an imported standard. Inflight catering here runs from a documented VIP flight menu down to a charter flight menu built for volume, each specification held on file between movements. Every tray, whichever cabin it boards, carries allergen, halal, kosher and medical coding logged per passenger before it is sealed. That documentation travels with the load, not separately from it, so a protocol desk or a cabin crew can check it at the door rather than after boarding.
First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins out of Feira de Santana are plated to a written specification, with à-la-carte service and caviar available on request rather than fixed to a single fixed tray. VIP flight catering here is filed against the standing order, so a repeat rotation boards the same presentation every time.
Business cabins
Business cabins at SDIY run on multi-choice hot service built to cabin specification, boxed into oven-ready formats sized to the galley fitted to the aircraft. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals travel in the same tray sets, boxed to the roster rather than to a generic count.
Protocol & dietary
Protocol and dietary requirements out of Feira de Santana are documented per passenger before the tray is sealed, covering household, religious and medical sets on a line kept apart from the main production. Halal and kosher sets, and the full range of IATA special meal codes, are produced there and inflight catering leaves that line already matched to the passenger it is coded for.

Flight catering airside delivery at SDIY / FEC
A single narrow-body stand and one runway at 1,500 metres set the traffic profile Feira de Santana actually works to: scheduled and charter movements handled one at a time rather than in a wave, which makes documentation the constraint here rather than throughput. That shapes how airline catering at SDIY is planned, because a delegation or a charter group is worked as a paperwork problem first and a volume problem second.
The uplift reaches the aircraft by cart from our kitchen to the apron, loaded through the galley door under our own airside delivery clearance rather than handed off at the foot of the stand. In-flight catering at FEC and aviation catering in Feira de Santana both run off that same route, with our crew on the ramp for the whole sequence from seal to signature.
On this stand we commit to one coordinator per rotation, sealed carts logged at both ends, and a signed handover before the aircraft closes doors, so airport catering at SDIY carries the same accountable chain whether the flight is scheduled, chartered or ad hoc.
VVIP catering alongside scheduled flights at Feira de Santana (FEC)
01
Government and state flight catering at FEC
A 1,500 m runway rated to the narrow-body code, so a state aircraft here boards from the same single stand as any scheduled arrival, without a separate apron to plan around. Government flight catering at Feira de Santana covers state visits and official delegations with the protocol file documented per passenger, security-cleared staff on the load, and the uplift for any head of state movement sealed before it leaves the kitchen.

02
Royal and VVIP flight catering at Feira de Santana
Our crews hold the narrow-body reference code fixed to this stand, and build the household specification for a private airliner around that same constraint rather than around a wider apron. Royal flight catering at Feira de Santana keeps a BBJ, an ACJ or a wide-body VIP movement on one written household file, with halal sets and other royal household requirements produced on request between rotations.

03
Charter and ACMI flight catering at SDIY
One narrow-body stand carries the charter traffic through Feira de Santana on a single sequenced rotation rather than a bank of parallel gates. Charter flight catering at SDIY serves ACMI and wet-lease operators, group movements and special missions with a full three-cabin uplift counted against the loading sheet, and charter flight catering in Brazil follows that same staged galley order on every leg.

04
Airline and ad hoc catering at FEC
A single narrow-body stand at Feira de Santana means every rotation is sequenced rather than run in parallel, which is exactly the constraint ad hoc airline catering has to work around when a diversion lands unannounced. Outstation catering and technical stop catering both draw on the same duty roster as a scheduled movement, and diversion catering follows the identical sealed-cart route across a multi-leg rotation.

Private jet and FBO catering at Feira de Santana
A business jet using the single narrow-body stand at Feira de Santana boards from the same ramp as any scheduled arrival, because the runway rating governs one apron rather than a separate GA apron. Private jet catering at Feira de Santana reaches the FBOs on the field and the GA terminal on the same cold chain and paperwork as an airline uplift.

“For our departure from Feira de Santana (FEC/SDIY), we specifically needed airline catering IATA standards. The order came ready for service with no unnecessary packaging or loose items to sort through. Exactly what we need for a quick galley setup. From an operational point of view, the service was easy to manage and required very little follow-up.”
★★★★★Scheduled airline
Akira — Turnaround Coordinator
“For a changing schedule at Feira de Santana (FEC/SDIY), we needed flexible outstation. They understood the operational language and did not need every change explained twice. That operational understanding was the biggest advantage. Responses were quick whenever we had a question, which helped us keep the flight on schedule.”
★★★★★Private jet operator
Samuel — Executive Charter Coordinator

Everything was easy to check and load, and the passenger requests were prepared exactly as ordered. A very good experience from a flight attendant perspective. Updates were timely and the final delivery matched the confirmation we had from operations.”

Aircraft catering questions at Feira de Santana
Crew meals, lead times and access at Feira de Santana (FEC)
What operations gets asked every week about Feira de Santana.
Ask operations directly →Which special meal sets does Feira de Santana Airport produce, and how are they documented?
The loader carries halal, kosher and the full set of IATA SPML codes on every route from our kitchen, each one labelled per passenger before the cart is sealed. That coding travels with the tray, so a cabin crew can check it at the galley door rather than after boarding.
How does FEC handle VIP, VVIP and government flight catering, and under what protocol?
FEC boards VIP flight catering and government flight catering from the same single stand as scheduled traffic, with the protocol file for each movement documented per passenger. Security-cleared staff handle the load from seal to signature, whatever the mission.
Do you deliver airline catering airside at SDIY, and how does the uplift reach the aircraft?
Yes, by hi-loader to galley height, loaded directly from the sealed cart rather than set down at the foot of the aircraft. Airside delivery here runs on our own clearance across the apron, from kitchen to galley door.
When does an order need to be placed for a rotation through Feira de Santana, and how late can the specification change?
When the flight is confirmed, the loading window and cabin count are locked against our duty roster, and last minute airline catering can still be adjusted up to the sealing of the cart. Once the cart is sealed the specification travels fixed to the load.
