BlueDog makes a valid point in an altruistic sense. But the real question is - why is tankering necessary? Is it a genuine shortage in Scotland (so near to the North Sea), or is it supply monopoly artificially raising the local price?
Airlines are the "fuel suppliers of last resort" when conventional market sources come up short. It's unfair to point the finger of blame at an airline when more efficient surface transport is failing to do the job.
