ATC issued reroutes from ZDV to BDL. It was my third straight day on this desk and that reroute had been out for all 3 days. I missed it on (flight#) resulting in a 4.4 arrival fuel. I told the crew once they entered ZMP center to request direct YYB. After Consulting with the Chief Dispatcher and ATC coordinator I adv...
B737-700 Dispatcher reports not noting a NOTAMed airspace closure and files the standard route. This results in a reroute by ATC and landing with less than planned fuel.

During climb out on a Maintenance test flight; ATC gave us a reroute. We determined that the length of the reroute would leave us with too little fuel at landing; so we requested a more direct routing. The controller said they could offer vectors only; due to restricted airspace being active. We elected to take vectors...
Airbus flight crew reported entering restricted military airspace after ATC asks if they can make a turn within 9 NM. Crew thinks that means start turn within 9 NM.
