Briefing

What we plan around at MQP.

Local constraints we build into every delivery window — curfew, customs, slots, transit, and ramp access.

01

Jet-to-bush handoff.

The jet lands at MQP; a light charter (Caravan-class) flies the last leg to the lodge strip. We cater the jet leg and pack provisioning for the onward hop — the bush strips have no facilities.

02

Multi-leg food safety.

Heat and a second aircraft leg — we pack for the hold and the transfer.

03

Permits & biosecurity.

South Africa requires permits and strict food rules — local sourcing is compliant and superior.

04

Lodge coordination.

Most camps cater on site — we provision the journey to them, not the lodge stay.

05

Confirm handler.

Delivery starts with the tail's FBO.
