Fwiw, I used to work at MSY fueling planes and when the truck would show up to deliver our fuel we were rarely the first stop. They would go to Shell, then Circle K, then us with the same fuel.


So, we're getting jet fuel in Kenner gas stations? That's cool.

Costco is awesome. If you get a Costco credit card you get:

4% cash back on Costco gas and other eligible places
3% cash back on eligible restaurants and travel
2% cash back on Costco purchases
1% cash back on other purchases

I typically buy my gas at Sams Club, get 5% back with the Sams card for all gas purchases.

Maybe it was for the vehicles on the tarmac. Luggage and plane pullers and such.

No Amex accepted at Costco piss on them!



Yep...you are about two months too late. Costco said screw you to Amex and switched their cards to Visa. They increased the payback on gasoline, so I don't care.

Can't beat em for the price. Even their beer is decent



The microbrew is decent, it's actually great for the price. The light beer sucks.

I got a Venture Card just because they switched to VISA. I said goodbye to my AMEX.

I think they add the detergent on-site to the base gasoline. Some places even offer an added detergent at the point of sale (the pump).


I have never in my life seen anyone add anything to gas holding tanks at a gas station. I worked at 3 different gaS STATIONS FOR ABOUT 5-6 years back in high school. I received late night shipment of gas at all 3. Nobody adds anything to the gas after it is loaded on th etrucks, it gets added at the refinery.
