Thanks for the feedback guys... As it turned out we held the article over to make sure we did not publish any inacccuracies! The intention is not to scaremonger, but to inform our readers about why such things as flights being diverted happen. Obviously if you find yourself stuck in an airport you never wanted to be in for two hours because the aircraft did not have enough fuel - even if it had the required fuel to be safe - then as a paying customer I think you deserve an answer... Gulf Air has still not told us how much fuel the plane had left when it finally landed...! Thanks again and don't worry misd-agin - the object was not to write an article based solely on feedback I got here, but it has helped and any more is much appreciated.
Cheers,
Robert
