They'd save far more money by using re-dispatch flight planning as the norm on international flights vs. only when they have to.

Fuel saved by a single engine taxi a MGTOW 7ER and letting the pax sweat - maybe a few hundred pounds, never mind the cost of the collateral damage



The extra fuel burned to carry the extra weight of a straight 10% of a international reserve - priceless
