Danish fuel prices

[Flyingfemme]

Has anyone been to Denmark recently? Looking for an indication of their avgas prices.....

Depends what you mean by 'recent' - July 2011 I was in Stauning and Odense.

Visit http://www.statoilaviation.com and click on "Pricelist Avgas 100LL" (or "Pricelist Jet A-1") in the left-hand column. Including CO2 and excise duty, you are looking at around just under 15 DKK per liter for 100LL. A google check for currency conversion puts that at around 1.67 pounds. For international departure you don't pay the taxes.

Fuel at smaller airfields may of course be more expensive.

Correct, you have the option of claiming back taxes if flying abroad, but only if it is business related. As such it is the company that can claim back the taxes, you can't do it as a private individual.

My understanding is that as long as it is business flying, you can claim back the taxes regardless of whether you are flying abroad or not.

Here is a link to the form you use: http://www.skat.dk/getFile.aspx?Id=42283

And more information on the rules can be found here: http://www.iaopa.eu/contentServlet/fuelrefund.htm

Interesting about claiming back the taxes, didn't know that.

Aarhus were charging DKK 1924.41 for 94L two weeks ago. (about £2.21 / L)
