Yes, funny dumping $10000 fuel for a $10 blanket!
And the unidentified, 66-year-old, male passenger was escorted off the plane by two airport officers and released. There will be no follow-up investigation or criminal charges!!!

[PttU]

As stated in https://www.aviation24.be/airlines/etihad- ... hrow-ey19/:

The crew didn’t wanted to declare a fuel emergency.

Why? Are there penalties on such emergency and is it cheaper to fly LGW-LHR?
