Jet fuel supply problem at Christchurch airport – Bangalore Aviation

Jet fuel supply problem at Christchurch airport

December 16, 2008 Comments Off on Jet fuel supply problem at Christchurch airport 229 Views

Singapore Airlines has issued a flight alert for its Christchurch Singapore services.

Apparently Christchurch airport is currently providing only limited supplies of jet fuel to airlines as a result of a fuel supply problem. This problem is affecting all airlines operating from Christchurch.

As a result, Singapore Airlines is unable to uplift sufficient fuel each day to allow for its Christchurch – Singapore flight to operate non-stop.

SQ298, departing from Christchurch will make a short refueling stop in Brisbane, en route to Singapore, from 19 to 24 December (both dates inclusive).

On these days, the arrival into Singapore of SQ298 will be about two hours later than originally scheduled.

The departure time from Christchurch remains at 1150 hrs – the new arrival time into Singapore is 1915 hrs. (All times are local).
