 100LL.com has consistently beat Airnav.com on price accuracy and 
 timely updates for all of the long cross country trips I've taken 
 during the past 2 years.  It's saved me more than $1000 over what 
 Airnav found for lowest priced fuel near my destinations. 
 
Interesting.  While Airnav is often incorrect (old data), 100ll.com is  
more often incorrect in my experience.  Certainly, 100ll.com appears to  
be consistently less accurate just in my local/regional area. 
 
In any case, I've concluded that the best method is to find the airports  
with low price trends, and then call them to get an update on prices and  
availability.  During the post-Katrina run-up, the cheaper fields  
quickly sold out and, because they didn't raise prices with the market,  
couldn't afford to refill the tanks until prices came back down again.   
It would be a shame to land somewhere with legal reserves, only to find  
out that their tanks are dry.
