Jet-A pricing in the U.S. dropped last month, according to a new monthly report from iFlightPlanner.

Trip support software provider iFlightPlanner has introduced monthly aviation fuel pricing reports with data culled from 3,350 FBOs and fuel service providers across the U.S. In its inaugural report, the company noted that fuel prices in the U.S. showed a general decrease last month. Full-service jet-A averaged $6.24 a gallon, a decrease of 13 cents versus November.

In the U.S. central region, pricing averaged $5.67 per gallon, down 26 cents month-over-month, while in the South, it was down 2.5% to $6.22 a gallon. Aside from Alaska ($8.09) and Hawaii ($7.85), the New England region saw the highest average price per gallon at $6.52, still an approximate 1% month-over-month decrease. For the contiguous U.S., the average price was $6.15 a gallon, while self-service jet-A averaged about $1 less per gallon.
