From a light jet to a full 777, one caterer, one standard
Aviation catering — Ciudad del Este, Paraguay
Wide-body airline catering, VIP flight catering and private jet catering at Ciudad del Este (SGES / AGT)
AGT (IATA) · SGES (ICAO)
A 3400 m runway at Ciudad del Este takes wide-body movements onto the single stand system that governs every rotation here. That reference code sets what our kitchen plans against, so inflight catering and in-flight catering both move on hi-loader lifts direct to galley height rather than to the foot of the aircraft, with the uplift staged airside for wide-body departures.

Flight catering sealed and logged to the stand at SGES
The measured stretch at AGT runs from a sealed cart at our kitchen to the galley door, with ramp access held on our own crew credentials rather than passed to a third party at the aircraft steps. Every catering uplift at AGT is logged at both ends, so a diversion or a late change never breaks the record. The apron sequence is fixed before the cart moves, not improvised once it reaches the stand.
Between our kitchen and the wide-body stand at Ciudad del Este sit screening, an escort through the apron and the ordinary traffic of a working ramp, and we build the catering uplift plan against the worst case among them rather than the average one. Chain of custody runs unbroken from the moment the cart is sealed to the moment it is handed over at the galley, with one named handler responsible throughout the movement across SGES. Galley catering is logged at sealing and checked again at handover, and the load closes on a signature that ties the record to that single rotation, not to the day in general.
One seal, one signature, one crew responsible from kitchen to galley door.
Crew meals from the kitchen serving Ciudad del Este, Paraguay
Pilot meals and cleared production crews for Ciudad del Este airport
The flight kitchen behind Ciudad del Este is built to run hot production, pastry, a cold larder and a protocol cell under a single HACCP standard, with output staged for the wide-body stand this field operates. Airport catering here is planned around that one stand rather than a bank of gates, so airport catering at SGES moves on a fixed sequence instead of a rota of loading bays. Flight kitchen output at AGT is sealed before it leaves the building and checked again at the aircraft.
The team that handles government flight catering at Ciudad del Este is the same named crew every rotation: security clearance on file, listed on the access list, and trained to household standards for royal and diplomatic work alike. Each member carries the paperwork that travels with a sealed uplift, so a protocol officer can trace who packed, who sealed and who escorted the load without asking twice. That continuity, not a rotating pool of casual staff, is what catering at SGES rests on for repeat state and household movements.
Halal airline meals and special meals at SGES / AGT
Royal flight catering standards per cabin at Ciudad del Este (AGT)
Menus at Ciudad del Este are written to the cabin and the mission rather than to a single fixed list, drawing on the country's produce where the flight plan allows it: dairy, river fish and orchard fruit worked into a specification rather than a fixed menu. Inflight catering in Ciudad del Este moves from passenger meal boxes through to VVIP tray sets on the same production line, adjusted by season rather than reissued from scratch each time. Every set carries a documented allergen, halal, kosher or medical profile, labelled per passenger and per cabin before it is sealed. That labelling travels with the cart, not as a separate sheet handed over afterwards.
First & VVIP cabins
First and VVIP cabins at Ciudad del Este are plated to a written specification rather than a fixed menu, with caviar and à-la-carte service available on request against the standing order on file. VIP flight catering at SGES is filed against that same order for every repeat rotation, so a household or a delegation sees the same presentation movement after movement.
Business cabins
Business cabins at AGT run on multi-choice hot service built to the cabin specification, in oven-ready formats sized to the galley fitted to the aircraft on the stand. Crew meals at Ciudad del Este travel in the same tray sets, with cabin crew meals and pilot meals boxed separately against the roster, and crew meals at SGES are logged on the same handover sheet as the passenger load.
Protocol & dietary
Household, religious and medical requirements at Ciudad del Este are documented per passenger rather than batched by flight, covering halal and kosher sets and the full range of IATA special meal codes. Inflight catering at Ciudad del Este for these sets is produced on a separate line and sealed before it leaves that line, keeping the dietary load traceable back to one passenger record.

Flight catering airside delivery at AGT
Ciudad del Este runs on a single wide-body-capable stand fed by one runway, which turns every movement here into a scheduling question before it is a kitchen question: a delegation brings a documentation load, a charter rotation brings a capacity load, and a repeat sector brings a repetition load the kitchen plans against in advance. Aviation catering in Paraguay is built around that single-stand reality rather than around a bank of gates that this field does not have.
The uplift travels from our kitchen to the ramp under airside delivery, with the cart taken to galley height by hi-loader rather than left at the aircraft steps, and our own crew holds ramp access for the whole movement. Airline catering at AGT and in-flight catering at Ciudad del Este both run off that same route, coordinated from one desk rather than handed between separate teams; airport catering in Ciudad del Este is planned stand by stand because there is only the one to plan.
On every rotation here we commit one coordinator, sealed carts and a signed handover, the same three things whether the movement is a scheduled sector or a one-off charter.
VVIP catering alongside scheduled flights at Ciudad del Este airport
01
Government and state flight catering at SGES
On the single stand at Ciudad del Este a head of state movement is worked to the same sequence as any other wide-body rotation, with the protocol file that distinguishes it built in ahead of arrival rather than assembled on the ramp. Government flight catering at Ciudad del Este covers state visits and official delegations with security-cleared staff and a chain of custody sealed at the kitchen before the cart ever reaches the stand.

02
Royal and VVIP flight catering at AGT
A single wide-body stand means a household movement and a scheduled sector cannot both be worked from separate bays, so royal flight catering at Ciudad del Este is sequenced against the rest of the day's traffic rather than isolated from it. Private airliners, BBJ, ACJ and wide-body VIP types, are held to a written household specification kept on file between movements, with halal and other dietary sets produced to the same royal household standard on request.

Charter and ACMI flight catering at Ciudad del Este
The 3400 m runway at Ciudad del Este takes a fully loaded wide-body charter on departure, which sets the working assumption behind every charter movement worked here. Charter flight catering at SGES covers ACMI and wet-lease operators, group movements and multi-leg rotations with a full three-cabin uplift, and charter flight catering in Ciudad del Este is staged against the loading sheet in the order the galleys are laid out.

04
Airline and ad hoc catering at SGES
The single wide-body stand at Ciudad del Este takes a scheduled sector, a diversion or a technical stop on the same footing, which is what makes ad hoc airline catering here a scheduling exercise rather than a menu one. Outstation catering, diversion catering and technical stop catering at AGT run off one duty roster, AOG included, and crew meals at Ciudad del Este travel on the same handover sheet across a multi-leg rotation, with ad hoc catering at AGT booked against the same loading window as a scheduled flight.

Private jet and FBO catering at AGT
Our kitchen works the same ramp for business aviation as it does for the wide-body stand at Ciudad del Este, running private jet catering at AGT to the FBOs on the field and the GA terminal rather than to a separate facility. Business aviation catering and business jet catering move on the same cold chain and the same paperwork as an airline uplift, with FBO catering logged and sealed before it leaves our kitchen.

“Our flight at Ciudad del Este (AGT/SGES) required airline catering IATA standards with clear service-by-service organization. Presentation stayed good while the setup remained practical for a fast aircraft turnaround. Exactly what we need for a quick galley setup. The final handover was simple and there was nothing for the crew to correct before departure.”
★★★★★Government flight department
Tariq — Government Aviation Coordinator
“We used the team for ad hoc catering at Ciudad del Este (AGT/SGES) during a tight turnaround. They understood the operational language and did not need every change explained twice. Good support for a changing flight schedule. The order was complete on arrival and easy for us to check before closing the doors.”
★★★★★Charter operator
Dimitri — Network Operations Coordinator
“For our business jet at Ciudad del Este (AGT/SGES), I arranged FBO catering with a few passenger-specific requests. The food arrived fresh and well presented, with clear labels and packaging that actually worked in our galley. Exactly what I want from a private aviation caterer. Responses were quick whenever we had a question, which helped us keep the flight on schedule.”

What operations gets asked every week about Ciudad del Este.
Ask operations directly →Does AGT handle VIP, VVIP and government flight catering, and under what protocol?
Every movement classed as VIP flight catering or government flight catering at Ciudad del Este runs to a written protocol file, with security-cleared staff and a chain of custody sealed before the cart leaves the kitchen.
At which point are halal, kosher and IATA special meal codes produced at SGES?
The dietary line runs first, ahead of the main production line, so halal, kosher and the full range of SPML special meals are produced and sealed before the rest of the uplift is assembled.
Is airline catering cost published for Ciudad del Este?
The coordinator who plans your rotation prices it against cabin count, specification and loading window rather than a published list, and the desk comes back with a written quotation.
Who delivers private jet catering to the FBOs and the GA terminal at Ciudad del Este Airport?
Across the field, our kitchen delivers to every FBO and the GA terminal alike, on the same cold chain and the same paperwork as an airline uplift, so FBO catering is never a separate standard.
Where does airline catering reach the aircraft airside at AGT?
The handover sheet signed at the stand records airside delivery by hi-loader straight to galley height, with no leg of the uplift left at the foot of the aircraft.
How far in advance does an order need to be placed at SGES, and how late can it change?
The lead time rests on the same clearance and kitchen capacity that governs a scheduled rotation, and last minute airline catering can still be worked provided the specification change reaches the coordinator before the sealed cart is built.
