How much notice do you need for a full catering order at IBE?

For most menus, a few hours is sufficient. We operate 24/7 and can accommodate short-notice requests. Kosher catering requires a minimum of 24 hours' notice to maintain proper certification and chain of custody.

Which handlers do you deliver to at Ibagué airport?

We work handler-agnostically and deliver to whichever agent is managing your aircraft. Confirm the handler name and ramp location when you order and we coordinate the handover directly with your crew.

Can you source local Colombian produce for a flight departing IBE?

Yes. The Tolima region and neighbouring coffee-axis departments supply trout, tropical fruits, specialty cacao, and fresh herbs that our team incorporates into bespoke menus for passengers departing Ibagué.

Do you cater for dietary requirements — vegan, gluten-free, kosher, halal?

All standard dietary requirements are accommodated. Kosher orders require 24 hours' notice. Please specify all requirements at the time of booking so the kitchen can prepare and label each item correctly.

Can you supply crew meals separately from the passenger order?

Crew meals are handled as a distinct line item on every order. We package them separately, clearly labelled, so the flight crew can identify their provisions without going through passenger galleys.

Do you cover other airports in the region if we are operating a multi-sector itinerary?

Yes. Our regional network covers neighbouring airports including those serving Girardot, Armenia, Manizales, Pereira, and beyond. Multi-sector orders are coordinated by the same single point of contact across all legs.

Inflight Catering · Ibagué

Private aviation catering at IBE

Ibagué sits at nearly 3,000 feet in the Tolima department, surrounded by some of Colombia's most productive agricultural land. The Magdalena River valley to the east and the coffee-belt slopes to the west supply ingredients that rarely travel far before they reach a galley — ripe plantains, freshwater fish, hand-picked herbs, and single-origin beans roasted locally. The city is known across Colombia as the 'musical capital of the country', a cultural confidence that extends to its table. Traditional Tolimense cooking — slow-cooked meats wrapped in bijao leaves, tamales layered with potato and pork, arepas thickened with the region's white maize — gives our culinary team a serious, distinctive larder to draw from when building menus for passengers departing IBE.

Regional Catering Menu · Ibagué

Ibagué inflight catering

Our sourcing for Ibagué inflight catering leans on the produce corridor that connects Tolima with the neighbouring coffee-axis departments. Trout from mountain streams near the central cordillera, passion fruit and lulo grown at altitude, and the fine-grained Tolima cacao all make appearances in our seasonal menus. For aircraft catering out of SKIB, we present these ingredients without embellishment — chilled crudités dressed in lulo vinaigrette, trout ceviche with fresh cilantro, and single-origin chocolate work that reflects the provenance of the region honestly. For crews and passengers requiring something more international in scope, our 24/7 kitchen team builds from a worldwide pantry. Japanese-style cold plates, European charcuterie, and grain-forward vegan menus are prepared to the same galley-ready standard. Kosher requests are fulfilled with a 24-hour lead time, ensuring full chain-of-custody compliance from kitchen to aircraft.
