Dynamic Fuel Tankering

Disclosed herein are methods and systems for dynamically calculating a total fuel uplift quantity for an aircraft scheduled to fly a flight route. In one aspect, a method comprises: (a) polling a plurality of sources to receive data indicative of: (i) real-time weather conditions in remaining flight sectors in the flight route, and (ii) delay information in the remaining sectors; (b) calculating for the remaining sectors a respective fuel consumption factor; (c) based on (i) respective fuel quotations in the remaining sectors, (ii) the real-time weather conditions, and (iii) the delay information, generating a linear model for calculating a respective fuel uplift quantity at arrival stations in the remaining sectors; (d) calculating using the linear model the respective fuel uplift quantity at the arrival stations; and (e) periodically performing operations (a)-(d) to update a calculation of the respective fuel uplift quantities to account for changing factors.
