How much fuel is needed
 
Hi all,

I'm working on a project and I was wondering if someone could help me on working out how much fuel would be required and the appox cost to operate a flight from Dublin to Daytona?

The passenger aircraft type used would be a 767-300 with 275 people onboard, each passenger would be taking 30 kilos of luggage.

or is there a site you could recommend in order for me to obtain this information?

Thanks in advance!

Is this for real or just a paper exercise?
Titan Airways at Stansted have a B767-300 that seats 265 pax. *Fuel costs would be dependent on routing and weather conditions on the day avoiding the worst Jet -Stream Headwinds when Westbound and maintaining legal ETOPS *limits.*

This would be predicted by Jetplan Computers and finally decided on by the Captain on the day with regard to destination and alternate diversion airports weather forecasts etc.*

If for real you can find Titan's website via Google.

( I have no connection whatsoever with Titan but have worked with them in the past)

TIF ...... 50130 09.45
CONT ...... 1150 00.15
DIV ...... 3250 00.45
RES ...... 2250 00.30
REQ ...... 56780 11.15
ETOPS ...... 0 0
EXTRA ...... 0
TAXI ...... 460 (00.20)
TANKS ...... 57240 KG

Here's a ballpark figure for a 767-300 with approx 230 pax and baggage flying a similar route but avoiding a jetstream over the Atlantic. GC distance approx 3500nm but actual dist 3990.
