Jet Fuel Price by Type of Service Apr-09 Apr-10


For Domestic Non-scheduled Airline Service (dollars per gallon) $1.72 $2.39
Percent change from same month previous year -48.66% 38.95%
For Domestic Scheduled Airline Service (dollars per gallon) $1.74 $2.31
Percent change from same month previous year -41.41% 32.76%
Notes: Jet fuel prices reported to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics differ from producer prices. Reports to BTS show the cost
per gallon of fuel used by an airline during the month rather than the price charged by a producer on a single day. Fuel costs for
scheduled airline services reflect contractual and storage advantages available to large buyers, while fuel costs for nonscheduled
airline services reflect economic conditions for smaller buyers. Jet fuel prices also reflect seasonality due to both the seasonality of
aviation and because jet fuel has similar refining requirements to heating oil. The current value is compared to the value from the
same period in the previous year to account for seasonality. Data for January 2010 to April 2010 are preliminary due to late reports
by carriers.

21,000 route miles. Ridership is highly seasonal, with July and August being the highest volume months. In 2000, Amtrak
introduced high-speed rail service in the northeast U.S., which helped increase ridership.

Notes: Vehicle-miles traveled (VMT) are key data for highway planning and management, and a common measure of roadway use.
Along with other data, VMT are often used in estimating congestion, air quality, and potential gas-tax revenues, and can provide a
general measure of the level of the nation's economic activity. The current value is compared to the value from the same period in
the previous year to account for seasonality.

The Transportation Services Index (TSI) is a measure of the month-to-month changes in the output of
services provided by the for-hire transportation industries. The freight transportation index consists of: for
hire trucking, railroad freight services (including rail-based intermodal shipments such as containers on flat
cars), inland waterways transportation, pipeline transportation (including principally petroleum and
petroleum products and natural gas) and air freight. The passenger transportation index consists of local
transit, intercity passenger rail and passenger air transportation. The freight index does not include
international or coastal waterborne movements, private trucking, courier services or the U.S. Postal
Service. The passenger index does not include intercity bus, sight seeing services, ferry services, taxi
service, private automobile usage, or bicycling and other non-motorized transportation.
