It all depends...airlines may have one rate, private operators another.
Operating a VIP 727, I have several "contract" fuel accounts, but another technique that works well is to negotiate directly with the vendor.
For instance, if I only need to uplift 10,000 lbs but could take more if "the price is right", I've found many vendors will give me their best "airline" rate if I uplift the max.
Still doesn't change the fixed costs, though, as mentioned above...
