Types of Fuel Discounts

Discounts negotiated with specific fuel brands (e.g., Air BP, Avfuel, Shell).

  • Applies at any airport where that brand operates

  • Set as a percentage or fixed amount per gallon/liter

  2. Checks for an airport-specific discount first

  3. If none, checks for a brand discount at that airport

  4. Applies the best available discount
