Airline & VIP flight catering — Colombia
Airline, VIP and Private Jet Catering Across Colombia
Colombia's airports move wide-body and narrow-body traffic across two oceans and the Andes, and each uplift here is loaded, not delivered. Ramp access puts our teams at the aircraft door, and hi-loader boarding sets trays directly into the galley, for airline and inflight catering alike.

Airline Catering Stations Across Colombia
Below are the stations where our airline catering operation is established across Colombia, each with its own ramp access, kitchen distance and cabin capability. Open a station to see its runway data, stand count and reference code.

Uplift Loaded Ramp-Side, Not Left at the Aircraft Door
Everything below is what we measure at this station — distances, windows, who signs what.
How Airline Catering Runs Across Colombia
Colombia's traffic is shaped by its geography: a Caribbean gateway in the north, an Andean hub inland, and Pacific and Amazonian routes that feed both. Wide-body long-haul, regional narrow-body and domestic feeder services all cross the same aprons, and an aviation catering operation here has to hold all three on one schedule without one slowing another. Customs and airside clearance for an uplift follow the same discipline at every station: sealed trolleys, manifest matched to flight number, and a single point of custody from kitchen to galley door. An ops desk here works against ETA, not against a fixed slot, because diversions and schedule slippage are routine on these routes. Cold chain is held from production to boarding, checked at each handover, and the same standard applies whether the load is a scheduled narrow-body turn or a wide-body long-haul departure. Where a station carries a published runway length, stand count or kitchen distance, that figure sets what the ramp can take and how the load is staged. Requests move through one coordinator per station, who confirms pax and crew numbers per cabin, aircraft type and stand before the uplift is built and staged for hi-loader boarding.
Compliance
The Same Standard Applied to Every Colombian Station
One Operation, Five Kinds of Flying in Colombia
Across Colombia, one catering operation serves airline, government, royal, charter and private aviation from the same kitchens and the same ramp access. Each kind of flying has its own routing, its own protocol, and its own page below.

Placing an Uplift Request in Colombia
To order airline catering at a Colombian station, send the flight number, ETA, passenger and crew count per cabin, aircraft type and stand, along with any special meal codes. The ops desk matches the request against the station's ramp access and kitchen distance before confirming the uplift build. Send the request as early as the schedule allows, and update the ETA if it moves. From there, request an airline catering quote and a coordinator will confirm the load plan against your stand and aircraft type.
Colombia Catering Questions Answered
What Colombian Ops Desks Ask Us
Ask operations directly →Do you load directly onto the aircraft or deliver to the ramp?
Loading is done directly on board by hi-loader at stations with that capability, not left at the foot of the aircraft. The crew handover happens at the galley door.
Can you handle a diversion or an AOG uplift in Colombia?
Yes, diversion and AOG catering are covered from the same stations as scheduled work, built against ETA rather than a fixed slot. One coordinator manages the request through to boarding.
How is cold chain maintained across a Colombian station?
Cold chain is checked at every handover from production to boarding, using the same protocol whether the load is a narrow-body turn or a wide-body departure.
Do you cater business aviation as well as scheduled airlines?
Business aviation is served by our dedicated private-jet branch, delivering to FBOs and GA terminals on the same paperwork and cold chain as an airline uplift.
What do you need from us to build a quote?
Flight number, ETA, passenger and crew count per cabin, aircraft type, stand and any special meal codes. Send these to the ops desk to start the load plan.
