Aviation catering — Ayolas, Paraguay
Hi-loader airline catering, VIP flight catering and private jet catering at Ayolas (SGAY / AYO)
AYO (IATA) · SGAY (ICAO)
Ayolas (SGAY / AYO) carries a narrow-body aerodrome reference code, and our crews plan inflight catering here around a single 1850 m runway that sets the loading rhythm for every rotation. We run in-flight catering to galley height by hi-loader wherever a wide-body movement is worked, with uplift staged airside rather than left at the foot of the aircraft for a handler to carry up.

Aircraft catering lead times at SGAY / AYO
Flight catering sealed and logged to the stand at Ayolas (AYO)
At Ayolas, the catering uplift begins the moment a cart is sealed at our kitchen, not when it reaches the stand. Ramp access carries it across the apron under our own escort rather than a handover at the gate, which removes the one step most stations cannot account for. What the timeline below shows is the interval our own crew controls from seal to galley door.
Between our kitchen and the stand at SGAY sit screening, an escorted crossing and apron traffic that shifts by the hour, and we plan the galley catering run against the worst of those three rather than the average. Chain of custody stays with one named handler for the whole crossing, so nothing changes hands unrecorded between the seal and the aircraft. Temperature is logged when the cart is sealed and logged again at handover, and the catering uplift closes only once both readings and a signature are on file.
One sealed cart, one named handler, from our kitchen to the galley door.

Crew meals and passenger sets from one kitchen at Ayolas, Paraguay
The kitchen that provisions AYO runs hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol line under one roof, all held to HACCP standards from intake through to sealing. Airport catering at Ayolas moves from that single site rather than several smaller units, which keeps the cold chain unbroken from the walk-in to the cart. Airport catering at SGAY is scheduled against the loading window, not the other way round, so production starts once the rotation is confirmed.
The team that handles government flight catering at Ayolas is the same named crew every rotation, not a rotating pool drawn from general production. Each member carries a current security clearance on file and sits on the access list before a delegation movement is ever confirmed. Catering at AYO for this kind of work is trained to household service standards and to the paperwork that has to travel sealed with the cart.
Halal airline meals and special meals at AYO
Royal flight catering standards per cabin at SGAY / AYO
Menus at Ayolas are built to the cabin and the mission first, then adjusted for the season, drawing where possible on the country's dairy, orchard fruit and river fish rather than on a fixed catalogue. Inflight catering in Paraguay from this kitchen runs the same specification across a repeat rotation and a one-off charter alike, so a returning operator sees no drift between visits. Allergen, halal, kosher and medical sets are documented per passenger and per cabin, not batched, and travel with the cart under the same seal as the rest of the load. Nothing is produced off that written record, whatever the class of flight.
First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Ayolas: 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 at SGAY, so a repeat rotation sees the same service without a fresh briefing each time.
Business cabins
Business cabins at AYO carry multi-choice hot service built to a cabin specification, in oven-ready formats sized to the fitted galley. Crew meals, cabin crew meals and pilot meals are boxed separately to the duty roster at Ayolas, alongside the tray sets loaded for the paying cabins.
Protocol & dietary
Household, religious and medical requirements are documented per passenger at Ayolas, covering halal and kosher sets alongside the full range of IATA special meal codes. Inflight catering for these sets is produced on a separate line at SGAY and sealed before it leaves that line, kept apart from the general run throughout.

Flight catering airside delivery at Ayolas airport
Ayolas handles scheduled, charter and government traffic across a single narrow-body-rated stand, which turns each delegation movement into a documentation task rather than a capacity one. A peak wave here is rare enough that the working pressure sits on repetition and paperwork, not on volume, and our planning treats it that way. Airline catering at AYO and inflight catering at AYO run off the same ops desk rather than separate teams, with in-flight catering at Ayolas scheduled against the runway's single-strip rhythm.
The uplift travels from our kitchen to the ramp under escort, boarded to the galley by hi-loader rather than handed off at the foot of the aircraft, with our own loading crew on the apron throughout. Airport catering in Paraguay from this site follows the same route on every rotation, government or commercial, so the handover point never moves. Aviation catering in Paraguay is planned stand by stand here, with ramp access held on our own badges rather than a shared pass.
One coordinator carries each rotation from seal to signature, with sealed carts and a signed handover closing every load.

01
Government and state flight catering at Ayolas

02
Royal and VVIP flight catering at SGAY
At a station holding a single narrow-body-rated stand, royal flight catering still runs to the same written specification kept on file between movements. Private airliners, BBJ and ACJ types among them, are boarded here to household standards, with halal and other household dietary requirements produced on request.

03
Charter and ACMI flight catering at AYO
A single runway strip forces every charter rotation onto one fixed sequence, so the loading plan has to be fixed before the aircraft is on stand. Charter flight catering at Ayolas for ACMI and wet-lease operators, group movements and special missions runs as a full three-cabin uplift, counted against the loading sheet before the galley doors close, and charter flight catering at SGAY is timed to that same sequence on every rotation.

04
Airline and ad hoc catering at Ayolas
A narrow-body aerodrome reference code sets the aircraft this stand takes, and it still carries ad hoc airline catering for carriers running Ayolas as an outstation. Outstation catering, diversion catering and technical stop catering move off one duty roster here, AOG included, across a multi-leg rotation without a break in the tray standard.

05
Private jet and FBO catering at SGAY
The narrow-body reference code held at this field still allows a full FBO catering run to the GA terminal on the same apron used for scheduled traffic. Private jet catering at Ayolas reaches the FBOs on the field on the same cold chain and the same paperwork as an airline uplift, handled by our dedicated private-jet branch after the commercial rotation is cleared.

“For a last-minute requirement at Ayolas (AYO/SGAY), we contacted them as our airline catering broker. 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.”

Business jet catering questions at AYO
Technical stop catering questions at AYO
What operations gets asked every week about Ayolas.
Ask operations directly →How far does airside delivery reach at Ayolas, and how does the uplift get on board?
Security clearance carries our crew and cart the full distance across the apron, and the uplift is boarded by hi-loader to galley height rather than handed off at the foot of the aircraft, keeping airline catering under one chain of custody from seal to stand.
Ayolas Airport — how much does airline catering cost for a rotation here?
The hi-loader and sealed cart carry the load, but the airline catering cost itself depends on cabin count, specification and the loading window requested; our desk returns a written quotation once those three are confirmed rather than working from a published price list.
How far in advance does AYO need an order, and how late can the specification still change?
AYO works on a standing lead time for a full three-cabin build, with the specification able to move closer to departure for smaller adjustments; last minute airline catering is handled case by case against the loading window rather than refused outright.
Can SGAY produce halal, kosher and the full range of IATA special meal codes?
A single production line at this kitchen covers halal, kosher and the standard SPML set, each one documented per passenger and sealed separately before it joins the rest of the load, so special meals never mix with the general run.
What protocol governs VIP, VVIP and government flight catering at Ayolas?
There is one named, security-cleared team assigned to every VIP flight catering and government flight catering movement here, working to a written protocol that stays on file between rotations rather than being rebuilt each time.
