How long can a 737 fly?

A Boeing 737 fully loaded with fuel and passengers and cargo can travel 4,444 nm.

How much fuel does a Boeing 737-800 consume?

There is no "answer" to this question. The amount of fuel needed to keep an airplane flying depends on many, many things. The weight of the plane and everything on the plane is one factor. The more the plane weighs, the more thrust is needed from the engines to keep it flying, which means more fuel must be used to produce that extra thrust. Now consider, that a 737 can carry up to can carry 7,000 gallons of fuel (and it weighs something like 6 lbs. per gallon). That means the amount of fuel being burned changes (decreases) as the fuel is burned off (i.e. a plane will burn less fuel at the end of a flight than at the beginning). Aircraft need to burn more fuel they are climbing or turning to provide the thrust to make those maneuvers. At low altitudes, more fuel is needed or else the engines won't work correctly. At higher altitudes, the engines do not need nearly as much fuel. If there is a crosswind, the plane has to fight against the wind to stay on course and extra fuel thrust (which means more fuel) is needed. If the plane is flying during the day and the air conditioning system will have to be used and it consumes extra engine power which leads to extra fuel being used.

The following numbers are not exact but they give you an idea of how complicated this problem can be:

Plane #1: Uses 1,500 gallons of fuel for a 2 hour flight. (750 gallons per hour)

Plane #2: Uses 2,000 gallons of fuel for a 5 hour flight. (500 gallons per hour)

Plane #3: Uses 5,000 gallons of fuel for a 7 hour flight. (714 gallons per hour)

Here is another way to think about it:

Plane #1: Has 20% of its maximum fuel. It can travel 100 miles.

Plane #2: Has 40% of its maximum fuel. It can travel 350 miles.

Plane #3: Has 60% of its maximum fuel. It can travel 500 miles.

Plane #4: Has 80% of its maximum fuel. It can travel 600 miles.

Plane #5: Has 100% of its maximum fuel. It can travel 650 miles.

Which plane would be bigger An Airbus A300 or A Boeing 757?

Well, an A300 is very Wide. The A300 is a Wide aircraft with tiny winglets. The 757 either has no winglets or huge winglets. So the A300 would be bigger. A300 owns airliners like American Airlines or Delta or even the Fedex airplane. A 757 and 767 and 777 all mix together. The 757 owns like Continental or Delta and the U.P.S. The 767 uses like United Or AirTran. The 777 goes about 650-700 m.p.h. They use American, Delta, Almost every airline you can think of.

What is the most comfortable place to sit on a plane?

Well, indeed it would be first class.

But if you're on a budget or not into wasting such money on short domestic flights consider booking a seat as far to the front as possible- as this will make your flight more comfortable simply because if you are travelling with children they will put them as well as screaming babies at the back of the plane.

Front of plane= Best sleep choice!
