Fuel planning is one of the most common things people ask me about — so in this video, I break down how airline pilots decide how much fuel to carry and the real-world decision making that goes into it ✈️
I walk through how fuel is planned before a flight, what factors we consider, and how pilots think about safety, regulations, weather, alternates, and operational decision making — all explained in a simple, easy-to-follow way.
This isn’t textbook theory or airline-specific training, just a practical explanation of how fuel planning works in day-to-day airline operations.
If you’ve ever wondered:
• why pilots don’t just “fill the tanks”
• how fuel decisions are actually made
• or what happens when plans change
