How much fuel does a 787 burn on takeoff?
A Boeing 787-9 burns about 5400 litres of fuel per hour. At a cruising speed of 900km/h, that equates to 600 litres/100km. On average, a modern family-size vehicle uses about 8 litres/100km, or 75 times less fuel.
How much does it cost to fill up a Boeing 747?
Seats to fill
A 747 can seat 380 to 560 people, depending on how an airline sets it up. A full one is a moneymaker. But an airline that can't fill all the seats has to spread the cost of 63,000 gallons of jet fuel — roughly $200,000 — among fewer passengers. How many gallons of jet fuel does a 747 carry? Let's start with a look at the most famous of jets, the Boeing 747. The Boeing website states that this model, with a gas tank capacity of 63,500 gallons, may burn five gallons of jet fuel per mile of flight.
How far can a 737 fly on a full tank?
The 737-800 has a maximum fuel capacity of 6,875 gallons, which it carries in fuel tanks in its wings, as seen here, and in a fuel tank located underneath the passenger cabin's midsection. Fully loaded, the jet can fly up to 3,159 miles without refueling. How much does it cost to refuel a Boeing 737? Based on 450 annual owner-operated hours and $5.12-per-gallon fuel cost, the BOEING 737-200 has total variable costs of $3,510,274.50, total fixed costs of $321,630.00, and an annual budget of $3,831,904.50.

Can plane fly without engines?
Modern planes are designed to glide without engines, so they can travel long distances without using engines. The plane should still be able to land even if all of its engines fail. There are several reasons for engine failure, including fuel exhaustion, volcanic ash, and bird impact.
