Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
SEGMENTS SEGMENTS
Refinery Operations

Our refinery segment operates for the benefit of the airline segment by providing jet fuel to the airline segment from its own production and from jet fuel obtained through agreements with third parties. The refinery's production consists of jet fuel, as well as non-jet fuel products. We use several counterparties to exchange the non-jet fuel products produced by the refinery for jet fuel consumed in our airline operations. The gross fair value of the products exchanged under these agreements during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $618 million and $1.3 billion, respectively, compared to $1.0 billion and $1.8 billion for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

Segment Reporting

Segment results are prepared based on our internal accounting methods described below, with reconciliations to consolidated amounts in accordance with GAAP. Our segments are not designed to measure operating income or loss directly related to the products and services included in each segment on a stand-alone basis.

Fair Value Obligations

The net fair value obligations presented in the table above are related to renewable fuel compliance costs and presented net of any related assets or fixed price purchase agreements. Their value is based on quoted market prices and other observable information and are therefore classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. As of June 30, 2023 we had no net fair value obligation outstanding. Our obligation is calculated using the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's ("EPA") Renewable Fuel Standard ("RFS") volume requirements, which were finalized in 2022 for the 2021 and 2022 obligations, and proposed in 2022 for 2023 obligations. In the March 2023 quarter, we settled a portion of our 2021 Renewable Identification Numbers ("RINs") obligation with the EPA. We expect to settle the remaining 2021 and our entire 2022 RINs obligation by the 2022 compliance deadline in the December 2023 quarter.
