The 747 normally uses fuel called Jet A. The are other variants, Jet A1, JP4 etc. All are forms of kerosene.
Kerosene type 2 (JET FUEL)
The Boeing 777 uses an airplane grade of diesel similar to that of diesel trucks. Type #2 Kerosene is the diesel fuel used for the Boeing 777. The Boeing 777 has a higher fuel capacity and is more efficient at fuel consumption than earlier models like the 747.
A Boeing 767 airliner uses standard Jet-A type fuel. It is based on kerosene unlike gas used in automobiles.
All 747's use Kerosene.
A Boeing 747 primarily uses Jet A or Jet A-1 fuel, which is a type of aviation turbine fuel (ATF). These fuels are kerosene-based and designed for high performance in jet engines. The 747's four engines are optimized for this fuel type, ensuring efficiency and reliability during flight. Additionally, the fuel is formulated to perform well in a wide range of temperatures and altitudes.
It honestly depends on what type of 757 you use. 757-200, -200F, -200WL, or -300 Boeing 757-200: 3,900 nautical miles Boeing 757-200F: 3,150 nautical miles Boeing 757-200WL: 4,100 nautical miles Boeing 757-300: 3,467 nautical miles
The Boeing 757 is typically powered by jet fuel, specifically Jet A or Jet A-1. These fuels are kerosene-based and are designed for use in commercial jet engines due to their high energy content and stability at high altitudes.

Airplanes use varying amounts of fuel depending on their size, type, and distance traveled. On average, a commercial jet consumes about 3 to 5 gallons of fuel per mile. For example, a Boeing 747 can burn approximately 10 to 11 tons of fuel per hour during flight. Overall, fuel efficiency is measured in terms of gallons per passenger-mile, with modern aircraft designed to optimize fuel use.
The flight distance from London, United Kingdom to New York, New York is 3,470 miles. A Boeing 747 uses about five gallons per mile. For this trip, it would take 17,350 gallons of fuel.
