Jet fuel can be hedged with over-the-counter instruments like options and swaps or with exchange-traded futures such as futures on crude or heating oil. These contracts are based an underlying commodity which is not jet fuel. Therefore, it is not a perfect hedge. In the U.S., there is no futures contract on kerosene, the primary component of jet fuel.
