I guess NOTAM-ing the VIP departure instructing TFC to bring extra fuel would be expecting to much?

The only "western" VIP that gets much in the way of "closing the airport" etc is the US president in my experience. Still, if you notam it, telling crews to bring 45 minutes extra, it works flawlessly.


3 minues in the tanks......scary!
