How do I send a request for a Jet-A contract fuel release?

Before sending a contract fuel release to a vendor, you need the following:

  • You must have either a ForeFlight Performance Plus or a Business Performance subscription.
  • You must have contract fuel cards added to your ForeFlight account.
  • In ForeFlight Mobile, you must go to More > Settings and tap the on/off toggle switch next to Enable Fuel Orders to turn it on.

STEP 1. Open ForeFlight Mobile on your iOS device.

STEP 2. Go to the Flights view.

STEP 3. Create a flight.

STEP 6. Select the Fuel Provider (FBO), Fuel Type, and Fuel Card. A "Use Fuel Release" option will be presented when selecting contract fuel.

STEP 7. Turn the switch on next to Use Fuel Release.

STEP 8. Fill out the Fuel Quantity fields. If the quantity needed is unknown, enter 1 in the GAL field to invoke “captain’s discretion,” meaning the fuel quantity can be decided upon after landing at the destination.

STEP 7. When finished, tap Send. 

When the FBO receives the request for the fuel order, it can confirm the receipt of the anticipated fuel order. The Order Status in ForeFlight will change from “Sent” to “Confirmed” when the FBO confirms receipt of the fuel request.
