FUEL, COORDINATED

Jet A-1 fuel and fuel uplift in Sri Lanka

SEAS arranges Jet A-1 fuel uplift at every international airport in Sri Lanka, coordinating suppliers, into-plane service and paperwork with delivery timing and availability confirmed for each flight — whether it's a full trip or a quick technical stop. Compare VCBI and VCRI for a Sri Lanka fuel stop when selecting the airport. We can also advise on tankering where fuel pricing or availability makes it worthwhile. Check Jet A-1 fuel uplift checklist.

Limited capacity; confirm uplift &
return-fuel planning in advance

Fuel availability, method and capacity are from the eAIP (2025) and can change by NOTAM. SEAS confirms uplift, grade, quantity and timing for each flight before arrival, and never presents fuel as guaranteed.

TANKERING

Tankering & planning

Where fuel pricing or availability at a downstream airport makes it sensible — or where a constrained station like Jaffna limits uplift — tankering additional fuel can be the more economical or safer option. SEAS advises on whether it's worthwhile for your route and aircraft, so the decision is based on the numbers rather than habit.
