In actual business operations, it’s crucial to calculate fuel-related matters with the airline.
If the fuel tank is filled up at the departure station, the carrying capacity will be limited. For example, it might only be able to carry 98 tons or even less. But if refueling is done at points like Sharjah, Dubai in the Middle East or Africa, only half of the fuel tank needs to be filled. Moreover, the fuel there is cheaper and there might even be tax-free benefits, allowing the carrying capacity to increase to 104 tons or 105 tons.
Before arranging a charter flight plan, it’s necessary to communicate with the airline about the countries the flight will pass through and where international fuel settlement can be made. For example, for a charter flight from Shenzhen to Karachi and then to Sharjah, the relevant airline can refuel in Sharjah. By reasonably arranging the refueling amount, economic benefits can be manifested.
