Performance-tier subscribers can assign a default reserve policy to an aircraft, which will automatically apply to each flight. If a specific flight requires a different reserve policy, this can be adjusted directly in the Flights view.

Reserve Policy Explained

A reserve policy defines how reserve fuel is calculated to meet regulatory requirements. When planning a flight. ForeFlight calculates reserve fuel — including any additional or contingency fuel — based on the default reserve policy set for the aircraft or the policy selected for an individual flight.
