Aviation catering — Chachagüí, Colombia

Hi-loader airline catering, VIP flight catering and private jet catering at Chachagüí (SKPS / PSO)

PSO (IATA) · SKPS (ICAO)

Our kitchen runs on the narrow-body reference code held at Chachagüí, sizing every tray set and cart to the galley door of the aircraft this stand takes. We deliver inflight catering and in-flight catering by hi-loader straight to that door, holding the wide-body discipline of a larger uplift on a single airside route from kitchen to stand.

Inflight catering tracked kitchen to aircraft at Chachagüí, Colombia

The narrow-body reference code held at Chachagüí sets the cart dimensions and the galley door height our loading window is built around. Every catering uplift here moves under ramp access controlled at the apron, sealed at the kitchen and opened only at the aircraft door. That sequence, not a printed promise, is what the loading window at PSO actually measures.

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

Between our kitchen and the single stand at Chachagüí sit screening, an escort onto the apron, and the taxi and turnaround traffic that shares the same ramp access. We plan every galley catering run and catering uplift against the busiest version of that route, not the easiest one, because the chain of custody has to hold regardless of which aircraft is on the stand that hour. Temperatures are logged when the cart is sealed at the kitchen and logged again at the galley door, and the handover carries a signature before the door closes. Nothing moves on this route without both of those records attached to it.

One route, one seal, one signature — that is the loading window we hold.

Cargo crew meals produced to the same standard at SKPS / PSO

The flight kitchen at PSO provisions the narrow-body traffic that Chachagüí's single stand takes, running hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line under one roof. Every batch leaves that kitchen against a HACCP standard held constant across the airport catering we produce, whatever the flight ahead of it. That same building carries the airport catering for scheduled, charter and government rotations moving through the city, and the flight kitchen at PSO holds one cold chain from sealing to stand.

The team that handles government flight catering at Chachagüí is the same named crew on every rotation: security clearance on file, on the access list, and trained to the household standards that royal and state work requires. That continuity is what a protocol officer checks first, before the menu, because the paperwork travelling with a sealed uplift has to match the people signing for it. Nothing on that file changes between one movement and the next.

Royal flight catering standards per cabin at Chachagüí

AERO GOURMET writes its inflight catering to the cabin and the mission at Chachagüí, from a passenger meal box in the main cabin to a VVIP tray set plated for a head-of-state movement. Local sourcing draws on Colombia's dairy, orchard fruit and coffee country where the season allows it, without naming a single dish or a supplier the specification does not carry. Every set is built to a written menu cycle rather than a fixed card, so a charter flight menu and a VIP flight menu can run from the same kitchen on the same day. Allergen, halal, kosher and medical requirements are documented per passenger and per cabin, and produced against that record rather than a general assumption.

First & VVIP cabins

First and VVIP cabins at Chachagüí are plated to a written specification, with caviar and à-la-carte service available on request and filed against the standing order. VIP flight catering here is presentation-led but never improvised: every course is checked against the same document before it leaves the kitchen.

Business cabins

Business cabins move on multi-choice hot service, boxed to galley-ready tray sets sized to the aircraft on the stand at Chachagüí. Cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed to the roster, and crew meals at SKPS follow the same cold chain as the passenger cabin.

Diet.

Protocol & dietary

Protocol and dietary requirements are documented per passenger at Chachagüí, covering halal and kosher sets and the full range of IATA special meal codes. Produced on a separate line and sealed before it leaves the kitchen, inflight catering here treats every declared requirement as a fixed instruction, not a preference.

Inflight catering delivered to the stand at Chachagüí (PSO)

Chachagüí works a narrow-body traffic profile off a single runway, which turns every arrival into a documentation and timing exercise rather than a volume one: the loading sheet has to be right the first time because there is no second stand to absorb a delay. Airline catering in Chachagüí is planned rotation by rotation, not batch by batch, and that discipline holds whether the flight ahead is scheduled, charter or a government movement.

The uplift reaches the aircraft by a single airside route from our kitchen to the stand, sealed cart to sealed cart, with our own coordinator walking the escort each time. Inflight catering and in-flight catering at PSO run off that same route, and aviation catering in Colombia more broadly holds to the identical chain of custody regardless of the runway it lands on. Airport catering at Chachagüí never varies that route to save time.

What we commit to on this station is one named coordinator, sealed carts from kitchen to door, and a signed handover before the aircraft is released.

01
Government and state flight catering at SKPS
A head of state aircraft on the narrow-body stand at Chachagüí is boarded on the same reference code as any scheduled arrival, which is exactly what keeps a protocol movement from needing a different ramp routine. Government flight catering here runs on a documented file per passenger, security-cleared staff, and an uplift sealed at the kitchen before it reaches the stand.

Royal and VVIP flight catering at PSO
On the single stand at Chachagüí, a private airliner — BBJ, ACJ or wide-body VIP — is held to the same written household specification kept on file between one movement and the next. Royal flight catering runs from that file rather than from memory, with halal and other household requirements produced to it on request every time.

Charter flight catering first.
03
Charter and ACMI flight catering at Chachagüí
Sequencing a full three-cabin uplift has to work around the single stand at Chachagüí, where there is no second position to stage a delayed cart. Charter flight catering here serves ACMI and wet-lease operators, group movements and special missions, counted against the loading sheet each time the same way charter flight catering runs at any other stand on the field.

Airline and ad hoc catering at SKPS
The narrow-body reference code held at Chachagüí governs every cart and hi-loader pass this stand takes, which is what lets an ad hoc airline catering order be turned around on the same specification as a scheduled one. Outstation catering, diversion catering and technical stop catering each run off that same duty roster, AOG included, across a multi-leg rotation without a change of kitchen.

Private jet and FBO catering at PSO
The narrow-body reference code at Chachagüí sets what a business aircraft can be sized and loaded against, which allows private jet catering in Chachagüí to run on the same cart specification as an airline uplift. Delivery reaches the FBOs on the field and the GA terminal, with FBO catering held to the identical cold chain and paperwork as any scheduled rotation.

“We were looking for a dependable airline ops catering supplier in Chachagüí (PSO/SKPS) and the process was straightforward. They coordinated locally, sent useful updates, and kept the final uplift aligned with our revised schedule. We would use the service again without hesitation. From an operational point of view, the service was easy to manage and required very little follow-up.”

“We used the service for private jet catering in Chachagüí on a VIP rotation through PSO/SKPS. Everything arrived fresh, well presented, and easy for the cabin crew to organize before boarding. A very easy service to use at this station. That made the turnaround easier for both the flight crew and the team on the ground.”
