Aircraft catering handover at the galley door, Rio Branco
Between the sealed cart leaving our kitchen and the galley door closing on the stand, the catering uplift at Rio Branco is tracked stage by stage rather than promised as a single figure. Ramp access is held on our own badges, so the convoy crosses the apron on a route agreed with the airport rather than queued behind a general handling run. Every stage is logged against the rotation it serves, not against a generic schedule shared across carriers.
Between our kitchen and the stand at Rio Branco sit screening, an escort across the apron, and the ordinary traffic of a single-runway field, and we plan the galley catering run against the worst of those rather than the best. The chain of custody starts when the cart is sealed at the kitchen door and does not break until a named handler signs for it at the aircraft. Temperature is logged at sealing and again at handover, with the seal number carried on the same sheet as the catering uplift it protects, so a delayed rotation still lands on a documented load.
One sealed cart, one signature, from our galley door to theirs.
Pilot meals prepared for Rio Branco airport rotations
Cargo crew meals produced to the same standard at RBR
The flight kitchen that provisions airport catering at RBR runs hot production, a cold larder and a protocol line under one roof, cleared to HACCP and holding the cold chain from the moment a tray is closed. Airport catering in Rio Branco is built around that single site rather than a network of subcontracted galleys, so a menu change reaches every cabin from the same production floor. From there, flight kitchen output at RBR moves straight to airside delivery, with airport catering in Brazil answering to the same standard on every rotation we work.
The team that handles government flight catering at Rio Branco is the same named crew on every rotation: security clearance on file, listed on the access list, and trained to the household standards a protocol officer expects on a sealed uplift. Nobody outside that roster touches a VVIP or royal load between the kitchen and the stand. The specification travels with the crew, not with the aircraft type, so a repeat mission is worked to the same written standard each time.
Halal airline meals and special meals at Rio Branco (RBR)
VIP flight catering, specified per passenger at SBRB
Menus at Rio Branco are written to the cabin and the mission first, then adjusted for season, using produce sourced through Brazil where the routing allows it. A First or VVIP tray is plated to a written specification; a Business tray is built for volume in a galley-ready format; a main cabin run is boxed and counted against the manifest. Inflight catering here is documented per passenger before it is loaded, not audited afterwards, with allergen, halal, kosher and medical sets flagged against the same passenger list the crew works from. The result is a VIP flight menu and a charter flight menu drawn from one kitchen, never two separate operations.
First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Rio Branco: VIP flight catering plated to a written specification, with caviar and à-la-carte service available on request. The presentation is filed against the standing order, so a repeat rotation is served to the same layout each time.
Business cabins
Business cabins at SBRB run on multi-choice hot service in galley-ready tray sets, sized to the aircraft's galley fitting. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately to the roster, at Rio Branco, so the flight deck and the cabin never draw from the same tray run.
Protocol & dietary
Protocol and dietary requirements at SBRB are documented per passenger before loading: halal and kosher sets, IATA special meal codes, and household or medical requests filed against the same manifest as the main cabin run. Each set is produced on a separate line and sealed before it leaves the kitchen, so inflight catering here carries no cross-contact between trays.

Flight catering airside delivery at SBRB / RBR
With one runway and a narrow-body reference code, Rio Branco takes scheduled, charter and government traffic rather than a wide-body peak wave, which turns catering here into a documentation and repetition problem more than a bulk-capacity one. Airline catering in Brazil is planned stand by stand, and airport catering in Rio Branco is scheduled against the rotation rather than a shared pallet run.
Uplift leaves our kitchen on a sealed cart, crosses the apron under escort, and is loaded stand-side by the crew assigned to that rotation, with ramp access held on our own badges rather than a general handling pass. Inflight catering at RBR moves on that same route whether the aircraft is a scheduled service or a diverted one, and aviation catering in Brazil answers to the identical chain of custody on both.
We commit one coordinator to each rotation here, sealed carts logged at both ends, and a signed handover at the galley door.

Government and state flight catering at Rio Branco
One runway, narrow-body reference code, which means a delegation movement here is planned around a single stand rather than a choice of them. Government flight catering at Rio Branco covers state visits and official delegations, with the protocol file documented per passenger, security-cleared staff on the load, and any head of state movement sealed at the kitchen before it reaches the apron.

Royal and VVIP flight catering at SBRB
We hold private airliners — BBJ, ACJ and wide-body VIP — to the same narrow-body-compatible stand discipline that governs every movement at SBRB. Royal flight catering and VVIP work here run from a written household specification kept on file between movements, with halal and household dietary requirements produced on request and cleared before loading.

03
Charter and ACMI flight catering at RBR
A single runway at Rio Branco carries every charter movement through the same stand, so charter flight catering here is sequenced rather than parallel-run across multiple gates. Charter flight catering at Rio Branco and charter flight catering at SBRB serve ACMI and wet-lease operators, group movements and special missions with a full three-cabin uplift staged in galley order.

Airline and ad hoc catering at Rio Branco
A 2158 m runway sets the working length carriers plan a technical stop or a diversion around at Rio Branco, and ad hoc airline catering here is built to answer that constraint on short notice. Outstation catering, diversion catering and technical stop catering run off one duty roster, crew meals in Rio Branco and crew meals in Brazil boxed to the same roster, across a multi-leg rotation without a change of kitchen.

Private jet and FBO catering at SBRB
Business jets working the narrow-body-compatible stand at Rio Branco reach the GA terminal and the FBOs on the field on the same route as a scheduled uplift. Private jet catering at RBR is delivered by our dedicated branch to those FBOs, on the same cold chain and paperwork as an airline load, with FBO catering, business aviation catering and business jet catering all run from the one kitchen.

“We needed head of state aircraft catering at Rio Branco (RBR/SBRB) for a protocol-sensitive flight. The team understood the need for confidentiality and kept the order organized despite late passenger and dietary changes. We would trust the team again for a similar movement. The final handover was simple and there was nothing for the crew to correct before departure.”

Adrian — Ground Handling Coordinator
“I handled the cabin order for a flight from Rio Branco (RBR/SBRB) and needed wide body VIP aircraft catering. They followed our plating notes closely and made the final setup easy for the cabin crew. Good quality and very practical for onboard service. From an operational point of view, the service was easy to manage and required very little follow-up.”

Hana — Outstation Manager
“Our charter program used the service at Rio Branco (RBR/SBRB) for hajj charter catering. Despite the large order, communication stayed simple and final quantities were confirmed without confusion. The operation ran smoothly from order to uplift. From an operational point of view, the service was easy to manage and required very little follow-up.”

Aviation catering FAQ for Rio Branco, Brazil
Diversion catering and ramp questions at Rio Branco (RBR)
What operations gets asked every week about Rio Branco.
Ask operations directly →How does Rio Branco Airport handle halal, kosher and special meals?
Rio Branco produces halal, kosher and the full set of IATA special meal (SPML) codes on a separate line, documented per passenger and sealed before it leaves the kitchen.
Do you cater VIP, VVIP and government flights at RBR?
Yes, under a written protocol: VIP flight catering and government flight catering at RBR run through security-cleared staff, a documented access list, and a sealed uplift signed for at the aircraft.
SBRB — can you deliver airline catering airside, and how does it reach the aircraft?
The hi-loader is the equipment that carries the uplift to galley height; airline catering at SBRB moves by airside delivery from our kitchen straight to the stand, without a foot-of-aircraft handoff.
Can you deliver private jet catering to the FBOs and the GA terminal at Rio Branco?
There is one GA terminal and a set of FBOs on the field at Rio Branco, and private jet catering reaches all of them on the same cold chain and paperwork as an airline uplift.
With one runway at Rio Branco, what decides airline catering cost?
There is no published price list: a quotation depends on cabin count, the specification requested and the loading window worked, and the desk comes back with a figure once those are known.
