24. Planes typically only carry about 45 minutes of extra fuel
Call me an idiot, but if I were filling up the tank on the Boeng 737, I’d probably fill it all the way up.
But most flights you get on will only be carrying mourned 45 minutes worth of extra fuel- and if you hit empty you can’t just pull over and call the AA. Gulp.
23. They overestimate flight durations deliberately
So, technically you’re on time even if there are delays. I know people that do this with going to the pub.
