Usually the alternate for GEO is POS, so they would have had to upload round-trip fuel anyway. The flight time POS-GEO is around an hour, so we're not talking a huge amount to tanker over required fuel. That said, they probably land close to or at max landing weight every time in GEO anyway with that pax load. We always did.
