Which handler will you deliver to at the airport?

We deliver to whichever handler holds your aircraft. Simply confirm the handling agent when you place your order and we coordinate the planeside handover directly with their team.

Can you source fresh, local produce for flights departing Santa Maria?

Yes. Rio Grande do Sul's agricultural output is exceptional and our regional sourcing network covers the produce, meats, cheeses and wines that define this part of Brazil — incorporated into your order where lead time allows.

Do you cater for crew as well as passengers?

Crew meals are a standard part of every order. We prepare them from the same kitchen and to the same quality standard, with options ranging from light snack boxes to full hot meals depending on duty duration.

Is kosher catering available at Santa Maria?

Kosher catering can be arranged with a minimum of 24 hours' notice, ensuring proper certification and an unbroken chain of custody from preparation to delivery.

Can you service aircraft also transiting nearby airports in the region?

Yes. Our network extends across Rio Grande do Sul and beyond. Airports in the surrounding region — including those serving Porto Alegre, Caxias do Sul and Passo Fundo — can be covered under the same booking.

How are hot dishes kept at temperature for planeside delivery?

Hot items are packed in insulated, airline-specification containers and timed for delivery to coincide with your confirmed boarding window. Cold and frozen items travel with appropriate dry-ice or gel-pack solutions.

Private jet catering menu for Santa Maria

A short, working selection — not the full carte. This is what the kitchen boards most often for a Santa Maria departure: classics that travel, plated for cabin altitude, sourced the same morning.

The Altitude Dining kitchenBrazil

Hot main

Picanha Selada com Chimichurri Gaúcho

Prime rump cap, seared and sliced, served with a herb and red-wine-vinegar chimichurri and a roasted garlic purée. Portioned and vacuum-sealed for clean galley regeneration.

Hot main

Tagliatelle Colonial com Ragù de Costela

Fresh egg tagliatelle in the tradition of Rio Grande do Sul's Italian settlements, paired with a slow-braised short-rib ragù finished with Serra Gaúcha red wine.

To start

Tábua de Frios do Interior

A curated cold board of regional colonial salami, smoked copa, artisan semi-cured cheese and house-pickled vegetables — a direct expression of the state's interior charcuterie tradition.

Morning

Café Colonial da Manhã

Warm pão de mel, sliced colonial salami, requeijão cremoso, honey, fresh fruit and strong filtered coffee — the gaúcho breakfast in a compact, cabin-ready format.

To finish

Torta de Ricota Serrana com Goiabada

A delicate ricota tart made with fresh highland cheese, set on a cornmeal pastry base and accompanied by a sliver of goiabada — the classic Brazilian pairing rendered as a composed dessert.

Cold main

Salada de Quinoa com Nozes e Ervas do Pampa

Cold quinoa bound with toasted walnuts, fresh flat-leaf parsley, spring onion and a light sherry vinegar dressing. Clean, sustaining, and travels well at altitude.

Inflight catering in Santa Maria

Santa Maria sits at the heart of Rio Grande do Sul, a state whose ranching heritage, German and Italian immigrant traditions, and cool-climate agriculture have shaped one of Brazil's most distinctive food cultures. Grass-fed beef, Serra Gaúcha wines, artisan colonial cheeses and hand-rolled pasta from the interior all speak to a region that feeds itself extraordinarily well. That culinary depth informs every order we prepare here. Our sourcing network reaches into the surrounding region — drawing on the same agricultural corridors that connect Santa Maria to Passo Fundo to the north-east and the pampa country toward Bagé to the south — to ensure that what boards the aircraft reflects where it has departed from.

Regional Catering Menu · Santa Maria

Local sourcing for RIA

Rio Grande do Sul is churrasco country in its most serious form: slow-fired cuts of picanha, fraldinha and costela, seasoned with nothing more than coarse salt and patience. We translate that tradition into galley-ready formats — vacuum-sealed, precisely portioned, requiring only brief regeneration — without sacrificing the integrity of the original technique. Alongside the grill, the region's Italian-descended communities contribute a canon of fresh egg pasta, risottos made with Arborio grown nearby, and ricota serrana that arrives still carrying its morning coolness. Crew meals receive the same care as passenger catering. A long overnight positioning into Santa Maria can end with a proper café colonial breakfast — warm pão de mel, sliced colonial salami, requeijão and fresh fruit — rather than a reheated afterthought. We build both passenger and crew menus from the same kitchen, ensuring consistency from cockpit to cabin.
