Here's my guess about what could happen for the aircraft to get refueled: 1 - the airline wires the money to the fuel handler at ORD 2 - It's possible that the company handling the fuel at ORD may be the same company that is at DFW so they would just add the ORD fuel to the airline's bill 3 - The captain would pass around a hat to collect money from the pax to pay for the fuel (don't laugh - it has happen, though not at a major airport like ORD) David R. http://home.attbi.com/~damiross http://www.secure-skies.org/ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Panitz" <mpanitz@xxxxxxxx> To: <AIRLINE@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, May 21, 2003 6:45 PM Subject: [AIRLINE] Hypotical situation a forgein carrier/medical emergency > here is an hypotical situation > lets say a forgein carrier flying from DFW to London > and they have a medical emergency around Chicago > to make an emergency landing at ORD they have to > dump fuel, but this particular airline doesn't not any facilities > at ORD,. > my question is after the emergency is over, the plane will > need fuel so they can continue the flight to London > how can airline get the fuel for the aircraft? > (I would assume the local fueler would bill that airline)
