About 2 tonnes of fuel to start with.
A 737-300 flying to to UK from TFS, will use a lot more that 2 tonnes of fuel. EZY may/could use the -700, or A319's. Also may I raise the point that there are many operators of B733's at TFS, all year round that fly to the UK and Europe.

Take Hola for example - Its never been a problem.....TFS has a very long runway. If a 747 can make it off in the heat, I'm sure a 733 can.
