Merger Brings New Offerings, Efficiencies, In Corporate Aviation Fuel Procurement, Management

Jet Fuel Strategies announced today that it will join with Johnston Aviation's fuel procurement operation, forming a single operating unit. The new company, which will be led by President Doug McConnell of Johnston Aviation, will retain the Jet Fuel Strategies, LLC name and operate from Johnston's current headquarters in Elyria, Ohio.

"We've been told over and over, by folks from all walks of life in the corporate flight industry, that our contract pricing consolidation and  optimization software is the best out there," said Alec Blume, CEO and Founder of Jet Fuel Strategies, and creator of the software. "Teaming with Doug and his group will enable us to provide our customers not only with robust technological solutions, but a complete jet fuel strategy, saving them precious time and money by quickly exposing them to the lowest possible price at any given airport."

The company will offer its fully integrated, web based suite of software, which includes its popular "Fast Fuel" and "Smart Fuel" search and order utilities, "Optimizer" tankering calculator, and a host of administrative and reporting tools. Operators with their own fuel contracts can utilize the programs for free. Those approved to do so may choose to purchase fuel directly from Jet Fuel Strategies, gaining streamlined billing, invoice auditing, and other value added benefits.
