Our flight plan system used to add tankering fuel for flights into ARN. The saving was guoted at 8 UKL/ton. (Yes eight)
And people took it. Then we needed deicing because of the tankered fuel which costs aroun 600 UKL a go. So we didnt save a lot overall. I finally wrote a long treatise about it to ops planning, and they stopped doing it.
