You can't say because all the aircraft will be flying different routes with different utilisation rates and in different winds.

Young man, well written question, but leave out the ???????? crap, and never, ever use those smilley things (not that you did, so I will attempt an answer).
Utilisation about 10(?) hours a day, maybe more at peak periods. Average fuel use about 2 tonnes/hour, cost at the moment about US$1,400/tonne. Think of the hundreds of people taken places and to their families and all the business done. Far, far more efficient than driving in their cars polluting us all, and far better than semi-full or empty buses going everywhere polluting with poisonous diesel fumes at one tenth the speed.

Now what do you want to do with the information?
