Jet A fuel

Jet A fuel is a type of high-quality kerosene used to power commercial airplanes. It’s specially refined to perform reliably at high altitudes and cold temperatures. Jet A provides the energy needed for jet engines to generate thrust, enabling aircraft to fly long distances efficiently. It’s similar to household kerosene but has additives for safety, stability, and performance. The fuel is stored in the aircraft's tanks and pumped into the engines, where it’s burned to produce the power needed for flight. Its standardization ensures compatibility across the global aviation industry.
