Is it possible for the 777 in question to fly to full endurance, i.e. fuel exhaustion, without any manual intervention?
Yes. The fuel system is very simple. The engines feed from the centre tank first and then from their respective wing tanks, in the normal configuration, with no action necessary from the crew.
