Aviation catering — Londrina, Brazil
Private jet catering, VIP flight catering and airline catering at Londrina (SBLO / LDB)
LDB (IATA) · SBLO (ICAO)
A 2100 m runway at Londrina sets the aircraft this station boards for inflight catering, and a narrow-body reference code fixes the stand geometry the ramp works to on every rotation. In-flight catering here runs on hi-loader boarding to galley height, with the flight kitchen holding uplift close enough to the apron that a wide-body diversion still clears its loading window.

Everything below is what we measure at this station — distances, windows, who signs what.

Aircraft catering handover at the galley door, SBLO / LDB
The catering uplift at Londrina moves as a sealed sequence, not a delivery: sealed at the kitchen, escorted across the apron, boarded at the galley door. Ramp access is held on our own clearance rather than a shared pass, so the convoy is never queued behind traffic it does not control. Every stage between the kitchen and SBLO is logged, which is what lets the window hold on a narrow-body turnaround as well as a longer rotation.

Between our kitchen and the stand at Londrina sit screening, an escort and apron traffic, and the galley catering plan is built against the worst of the three rather than the average. Chain of custody runs on a single named responsibility from the seal at the kitchen to the signature at the aircraft, with no handover left informal. Temperatures are logged at sealing and again at the galley, and the catering uplift is not called complete until that second log and the signature both exist.
One seal, one escort, one signature: that is the whole loading window at Londrina.

Crew meals and passenger sets from one kitchen at Londrina
Airport catering at Londrina runs from a production kitchen holding hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol cell under one roof, built to HACCP standards from mixing to sealing. That single-site model is what lets airport catering here move a full three-cabin order and a single crew tray on the same shift without either queuing behind the other. The cold chain is held from the larder to the cart, so nothing at LDB leaves the kitchen without its temperature already logged.
The team behind government flight catering at Londrina is the same named crew on every rotation, not a rotating pool drawn in for the day. Security clearance is held on file for each of them, access to the kitchen and the ramp is limited to that list, and household service standards are trained rather than briefed on the day. That continuity is what a protocol officer is actually checking when the file is requested ahead of a movement.
Halal airline meals and special meals at Londrina airport
VVIP catering to a written specification at LDB
Menus at Londrina are written to the cabin and the mission first, then adjusted to the season, drawing on the dairy, fish and orchard produce of the surrounding region without naming a single dish or a single supplier. A scheduled rotation, a diplomatic movement and a charter group are given three different specifications from the same kitchen, not one menu stretched across all three. Inflight catering here closes on documentation as much as on plating: allergen sets, halal and kosher requirements and medical restrictions are recorded per passenger and per cabin before the cart is sealed. Nothing leaves the kitchen against a verbal instruction; every tray is matched to a written line on the load sheet.

First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at SBLO are plated to a written specification rather than a standing menu, with caviar and à-la-carte service available on request for VIP flight catering. Each course is checked against the protocol file before it leaves the kitchen, so the cabin sees exactly what the standing order describes.

Business cabins
Business cabins at Londrina run on multi-choice hot service, boxed to a cabin-specific oven-ready format sized to the galley fitted to the aircraft. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately from the passenger tray sets and labelled to the roster, not folded into the main cabin count.

Protocol & dietary
Protocol and dietary requirements at LDB are documented per passenger and produced on a dedicated line, kept apart from the general run of inflight catering. Halal and kosher sets, household dietary rules and the full range of IATA special meal codes are sealed before that line closes, each tray matched to its passenger record.

HACCP standards for aviation catering at Londrina airport
Flight catering airside delivery at Londrina, Brazil
A single runway and a narrow-body reference code set the traffic Londrina works to, so each rotation is planned as its own event rather than folded into a general schedule; a delegation brings a documentation load, a charter brings a capacity peak, and both are worked from the same duty roster. Airline catering and airport catering at LDB share that roster rather than running as separate desks, which keeps a scheduled departure and an ad hoc diversion on the same clearance list.
The uplift travels from our kitchen to the apron under escort, boarded through the galley door by hi-loader rather than staged at the foot of the aircraft; in-flight catering in Londrina and aviation catering in Londrina both move on that same route, with ramp access held on our own badges rather than a shared pass.
What we commit to at SBLO is one coordinator per rotation, sealed carts from kitchen to galley, and a signed handover at the door, whatever the mission behind it.

“I asked for HACCP at Londrina (LDB/SBLO) because we had limited time to reset the galley. The trays and boxes were organized logically, which saved the cabin crew time before passengers arrived. The crew appreciated how easy it was to load. The order was complete on arrival and easy for us to check before closing the doors.”

Tom — Airline Operations Manager
“Our operation through Londrina (LDB/SBLO) included a catering uplift request at short notice. The uplift was organized around our revised departure and reached the aircraft without delaying the turn. Good support for a changing flight schedule. The final handover was simple and there was nothing for the crew to correct before departure.”
★★★★★Private jet operator
Fernando — Private Aviation Manager
“We used the team for private jet menu at Londrina (LDB/SBLO) on a VIP trip. They followed my notes closely, kept me updated, and delivered at the time agreed with the FBO. A very good experience from a flight attendant perspective. From an operational point of view, the service was easy to manage and required very little follow-up.”

Airline catering services FAQ for Londrina airport
Pilot meals and loading questions at Londrina airport
What operations gets asked every week about Londrina.
Ask operations directly →When does airline catering reach the aircraft at Londrina, and who handles the airside delivery?
When a rotation is confirmed, the sealed cart moves from our kitchen to the stand under escort and boards through the galley door by hi-loader, never left at the foot of the aircraft.
Who documents halal, kosher and the IATA special meal codes on a Londrina rotation?
For every SPML request logged against a passenger record, halal, kosher and other special meals are produced on a dedicated line and sealed before they join the main tray sets.
Where does the airline catering cost at LDB come from, since no price list is published?
The load sheet records cabin count, specification and loading window, and a quotation is built from that record rather than from a fixed rate card.
Are VIP flight catering and government flight catering handled under protocol at SBLO?
The same named coordinator who runs a scheduled rotation also runs a government or VIP flight movement, working from a protocol file documented per passenger.
At what point does an order for Londrina need to be placed, and how late can the specification change?
The first step is confirming the cabin count and mission type with our desk, after which the tray specification can still move up until the loading window closes.
Does private jet catering reach the FBOs and the GA terminal at Londrina?
Every FBO on the field and the GA terminal receive the same sealed cart and the same cold chain as an airline uplift, through our dedicated FBO catering branch.
