All of the fuel is useable on the A330/A340. Fuel is initially transferred aft, but small quantities are then pumped forward throughout the flight to keep the CG close to the aft CG target as fuel is used from the centre/inner tanks. Any remaining trim tank fuel is transferred forward towards the end of the flight.
