- The Port of Seattle reports its on-airport hydrant line at SEA was repaired, tested, and repressurized, allowing gate refueling to resume after weekend disruptions.
- Alaska Airlines is tankering fuel, expanding trucking, and adding about a dozen daily fuel stops, while Delta and American plan select refueling stops and United expects no disruptions.
- Passengers have already experienced en-route fuel stops, with Alaska flights diverting to cities such as Pasco and Bozeman to top up without deplaning.
