De-icing fluid Prices

[JABBARA]

Hi guys,

Do you know the avarage cost of a complete de-icing price of a B 737 in a regular European Airport?

Thanks in advance

These things are very negotiable. This January 1, I paid roughly 2300 Euro on a 727-200, type II fluid at EDDF. I have paid more for smaller aircraft and less for larger aicraft. Depends mostly on demand at the time you need it and your negotiating skills!

Thank you Ferrydude,

I was expecting it to be around 500 Euro.

I am surprised.

it can be up to 4000Euro...I've been told by the rep in LFPG it's around 3500 Euro...so ,not cheap at all.

It depends on the liquid to be used and the amount of liquid used. Plus you pay a fee for the equipment time.

Highest we ever paid was a 75'000 EUR for a complete deice of a Diesel Ten after ice buidup on the fuselage and a forced one day snow break in flying.

Right, as I said it depends and can vary to extremes. Regular customers have priority and pre-negotiated volume rates. Us poor transients tend to be taken advantage of at times.

Hi ferrydude
At EDDF they use only Type IV.
