"unforecast headwinds" .....my a$$. You guys do know that grib data is quite accuirate and updated every 6 hrs. Did anyone else divert ?

Doesn't UA carry Altn fuel everywhere.

Piss poor effort if you ask me...............
Masif Eego,

Yes I know all about grib winds, and I have also seen them be way off the mark, and also not updated as they are meant to be.

Regarding the comment above and your a$$, I was just trying to provide some factual information rather than speculation...

I was the controller that diverted him to Brisbane and asked him why he was doing so. The answer is in my previous post.
