My question is did the flight deck crew uplift enough fuel for the journey taking into account the anticipated weather on arrival,
If I may offer a Non US P.O.V. I think worldwide the answer would be: "Yes we generally try to ensure we load enough fuel for the
anticipated (i.e. forecast) weather".
Problems can start when the weather turns out worse than forecast (which believe it or not does happen
) and/or there are other problems causing delays..that can happen anywhere in the world. Hindsight is a wonderful thing but sometimes you just have to accept things aren't going to work out as advertised and diverting to another airport to uplift more fuel is the sensible thing to do....
