Fuel Cards (Avfuel, Shell, etc..)

Anyone using one or have a recommendation on which one is best?

If you do Angel Flight, get a Phillips 66.

And do Angel Flight. We need you now more than ever.  Mooneys, it turns out, are way better at long trips than any of the others, but AF needs help with all types.

I have my Citi Visa card through Costco that gives 4% back on up to $7,000 a year in fuel purchases (1% after that). If I buy fuel through the FBO as full service it isn't classified as a fuel purchase by Citi, but if I do self serve and swipe it at the machine it treats it just like if I was at the gas pump with my truck and I get the 4%.

I never thought of using my Costco card for the 4% discount. Thank you for the tip.

I get 3% with my Bank of America rewards visa. 4% is even better. Adds up to real savings with the amount of fuel I purchase for two planes.

Unless someone else is flying one it shouldn’t be more fuel. When I had two planes I never understood why I paid double the insurance rate. I’m only flying one at a time.

I guess that’s one way to look at it!

Check with your agent.  I get an insurance break for two aircraft that are never in the air at the same time, but I'm the only one insured.  No "open Pilot".
