Yes that would tend to annoy the customer and maybe there's a mindset there needs changing, if it still exists. In the 'old days' fueling could be a problem because the airport authority operated the bowsers but with Stobart controlling all groundside ops it should be easier. It comes back to the same old thing though if you don't have equipment and staffing levels readily available to meet those peaks in demand you'll have a problem sometimes. Hopefully they've now identified and eliminated most of those problems.
