Request handling
Send the aircraft, the times and what you need on the ground. The operations desk replies with a reference number and a quotation. If you are working against a departure, call instead — the form can wait, the aircraft cannot.
Or call the desk
A dispatcher with a live problem should use the phone. The desk is staffed continuously.

Two things worth knowing before you plan
The runway closes every Tuesday morning
RWY 16/34 is closed for planned maintenance every Tuesday 0500–0800 UTC, and a friction test runs on the third Tuesday of the month 0500–0730 UTC. Build it into the schedule rather than discovering it in a NOTAM.
The Jet A-1 carries no anti-ice inhibitor
Fuel supplied at RKT contains no FSII. If your aircraft requires an additive, carry it and plan the uplift accordingly.
Planning reference only
