Fuel Planning and Budgeting
A Calculated Approach

When fuel is the single-most important cost element in the total airline costs, it is critical that an airline estimates as accurately as possible its fuel costs for the year. A sound assessment of the market factors and the mapping out of plausible scenarios enable airlines to plan and manage their fuel expense with confidence.

Scenario analysis enables risk management strategies to be defined whereby the airline protects itself from fluctuations in the market price.

AAG's specialists can assist in:

• Determining total fuel consumption based on aircraft types,
  engine and aerodynamic deterioration, load factors,
  flying hours, block hours, and sectors operated
• Establishing markers or proxies for each location
• Historical analysis of oil company/suppliers margins
• Forward curve analysis
• Scenario analysis and probability estimation
• Determining total into-plane price for each location
• Back-testing and budget adjustments
