Flight support for Africa bizjet operations
 
Until now we have always used Jetex for flight support when making Africa trips - I've found the service very good. The big advantage for me is that so far I have not had to pay any bribes, because I do not have to handle cash (all bills for fuel, handling, HOTAC are taken care of by Jetex). If I get asked for a bribe, I just direct the person to the handling agent or ask them to speak with Jetex. So far it has worked for me, though admittedly I haven't been to Nigeria yet.

BUT unfortunately the company accountants are complaining that Jetex charge too much. Admittedly I don't see the bills, but my feeling is that it would cost the same (and probably more) if I had to pay all bills myself using CC and cash, and I would end up having to pay a lot of bribes to get things done.

Just wondering if my experience is mirrored by others. Has using Jetex (or similar) meant you can avoid paying bribes? Has it saved money for you?
