Aircraft fuel Available · 2 providers
Fuel24 (fuel arranger) / Air BP (into-plane partner)
Jet A-1 and AVGAS 100 supplied 'by arrangement with fuel company' per AIP; two refuellers (30,000L + 20,000L). Fuel24 states it provides into-plane services in Albania 'through its partnership with Air BP'. Note: this rests on Fuel24's own marketing article plus the AIP's generic 'by arrangement' line — the specific Fuel24/Air BP into-plane arrangement at TIA is not independently confirmed on the airport site or AIP, hence medium confidence. Phone listed is Fuel24's Dubai ops line. Verified: fuel24.aero Albania article; AIP LATI AD2.4.2/2.4.3. · on request
