Not to belabour the obvious, but I doubt there are many operators worldwide (that pay for their fuel!) not emphasizing, pressuring? their pilots to take any more than minimum fuel.
A twist on this though is a recent memo praising one of our finest for removing a substantial quantity of the planned fuel load after deciding he/she did not 'need that much'
It was emphasized how much money this saved..
I don't really think we need to encourage this !
