NBAA Offers Free Fuel Cost-Cutting Strategies
With fuel production and refining costs expected to continue to
keep wholesale and retail prices at levels never anticipated just
two years ago, the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA)
released Ten Critical Strategies for Long-Term Fuel Savings on
Monday, a new white paper that provides a variety of steps for
saving critical dollars on aircraft fuel bills, both in the
short-term and long-term. The organization believes opportunities
to save fuel and reduce operating costs abound for business
aircraft, potentially saving entrepreneurs and companies that rely
on business aviation thousands of dollars per year.
“NBAA continually seeks ways to help its Members minimize
costs, and fuel is one of the largest variable costs of operating
an aircraft today,” says Mike Nichols, NBAA’s Vice
President of Education, Operations & Economics. “However,
while the price of fuel may be out of your control, there are still
tangible steps you can take to keep expenses down.” Ten
Critical Strategies for Long-Term Fuel Savings provides tips to
help flight operations start saving on fuel bills today.
Included in this white paper are strategies to compare fuel
prices at alternative destination airports and FBOs, calculate
aircraft weight for maximum efficiency, determine if you qualify
for a fuel discount and more.
NBAA says that this report is just one of the many resources it
makes available to help the Association’s Member Companies
operate their business aircraft as efficiently and cost-effectively
as possible.
