Passenger 767-200s and 767-300s have been converted for cargo use. As of August 2019, Boeing has received 1,254 orders from 74 customers, with 1,161 delivered, while the remaining orders are for cargo or tanker variants. A total of 742 of these aircraft were in service in July 2018.
Seats to fillA 747 can seat 380 to 560 people, depending on how an airline sets it up. A full one is a moneymaker. But an airline that can't fill all the seats has to spread the cost of 63,000 gallons of jet fuel -- roughly $200,000 -- among fewer passengers. The jets also are too big for most markets.
Per seat that's about $24.89 per hour. A Boeing 777, specifically the 777-200LR burns ~6.8t of fuel per hour while the 777-300ER burns ~7.5t of fuel per hour while cruising at 892 km/h @ 30,000 ft.
The International air transport association (IATA) reported jet fuel price at $1.88 per gallon and $623 per metric ton as of March 2, 2018, up 21.9 percent from 2017.
170.8 Cents (US dollars) per Gallon.
A good estimation is that a narrowbody aircraft like the Boeing 737 operates at around $1,500 per hour.
The average hourly rental rate of the Boeing 777-300 is around 23,000 USD per hour.
A: Boeing designed the 787 to use 20 percent less fuel than comparable aircraft. The Boeing 767-300ER consumes 1,600 gallons of fuel for each hour in flight. With jet fuel currently costing $2.91 a gallon, airlines could save $13,000 during the 14-hour flight between Boston and Tokyo.
I flew the Boeing 737 for 15 years and the Airbus A320 for six years and thoroughly enjoyed both of them. Each had their strong points and their not-so strong-points. The A320 was more comfortable on long flights, due to the larger flight deck and lack of a control column (it has a side stick).
Apologies. In IF that beautiful bird can fly up to 18 hours and 51 minutes but I think it mostly depends on your PAX and cargo weight. I managed about 16 hours, 767-300ER is a beauty to fly on almost any flight sim!
The seats of the 20th row have extra space for passengers legs but have limited recline, reduced width and are located close to the lavatories. The best seats are the seats of the 21st row. Passengers will comfortable here thanks to extra space.
Airliners are safe. The larger airplanes have a larger number of redundant systems due to their size but that, by itself, does not mean one airplane is safer than another. Regional airline-size airplanes have a somewhat higher accident rate than do larger airline jets. Turboprops have a higher accident rate than jets.
The
737-700/-800/-900 models are very reliable. These models have a 0.06 fatal crash rate per million flights.
These models currently have a clean flight record and all tie for being the safest airplane:
- Airbus: A220, A319neo, A320neo, A321neo, A340, A350 and A380.
- Boeing: 717, 747-8 and 787.
- Embraer: 135, 140 and 145.
The age of a typical aircraft varies by airline, according to airfleets.net, a website that monitors the world's major airline fleets. In the end, Landsberg says, age of the aircraft does not affect safety nearly as much as the maintenance of it.
The only other major accident involving a 767 occurred in 1993, when a TACA Airlines jet landing in Guatemala City ran off a wet runway and ploughed into several houses. Although the aircraft was a total loss, none of the 216 people on board and no one on the ground was seriously injured.
Boeing Even on twin-engined airliners, an engine failure is not a huge problem. When an aircraft is flying without one of its engines, it tends to fly at a lower altitude and work the remaining engine(s) harder. The Boeing 767 is certified for as much as 180 minutes of ETOPS.
Yes there is, and the difference is not close. Interior cabin width of the 767 family is 15'6", and the 747 family is 20' wide. If you are not in Economy you may think you had more space because of the seating density in Business or First, but in reality you are in a tube that is 4.5 feet tighter.
For example, the 787-8 has a greater wingspan than
767 and thus is designed to be more fuel efficient. Conversely, the
767 is longer than the 787 but does not carry more many more passengers.

(a) No person may operate an airplane unless at least the following number of flight attendants are on board the airplane: (1) For airplanes having more than 19 but less than 51 passengers on board, one flight attendant. (2) For airplanes having more than 50 but less than 101 passengers on board, two flight attendants.
First let's look at the largest of the three, the Boeing 777. It's most distinguishing feature is its size…it's a big one— significantly larger than the 767 or A330. Its engines alone are enormous- some are as wide as the fuselage on a 737! Depending on configuration, the 777 carries around 375 passengers.
According to Boeing, it delivered the final passenger 767 to Kazakhstan-based Air Astana in 2014. Production then shifted to a smaller space, shared with the 747-8 program, to make extra room for the 787. The thinking was that orders for the 767 would slow down, but demand for the type has remained strong.
The airline guzzles more than 95 gallons every second, draining its coffers by more than $20,000 a minute. A Boeing 767 burns about 9,000 gallons of jet fuel on a cross-country flight.
3,850 to 6,385 nautical miles
Identify the fuselage.The fuselage of the 767 is a large body and is slightly longer than a 737. The fuselage is very fat and has a slightly pointed nose and narrows out in the back. The 767 has three lengths of fuselage depending on the kind of 767, such as the 767-300.
Winglets allow the wings to be more efficient at creating lift, which means planes require less power from the engines. Boeing claims that winglets installed on its 757 and 767 airliners can improve fuel burn by 5% and cut CO2 emissions by up to 5%.
According to Planespotters, this B787 was first leased by Jet Aviation Flight Services from 2014 to 2016. During this time it was registered as N28MS. In 2016, the plane was bought by Deer Jet, a company owned by HNA and received the registration number 2-DEER.
On average, aircraft fill up with an estimated 3,500 gallons of jet fuel, costing an estimated $7,070. However, price can vary from $4,040 on the low end to $14,140 on the high end.
Q: About how much fuel per hour does a medium-sized aircraft such as the 737 burn? A: In round numbers, a 737 will burn 5,000 pounds (750 gallons) an hour. These are approximate figures, and the conversion between pounds and gallons is conservative.
The most common is by referring to a generic “operating cost per flight hour” figure. Most of the (extremely) generic references I've seen using that metric for a Boeing 747–400 are in the US$25,000 per hour range.
Boeing initially priced the 787-8 variant at US$120 million, a low figure that surprised the industry. In 2007, the list price was US$146–151.5 million for the 787-3, US$157–167 million for the 787-8 and US$189–200 million for the 787-9.
According to the Wall Street Journal, the average “profit per passenger” of the seven largest U.S. airlines was $17.75 — for just a one-way flight — and the average profit margin across those seven airlines was 9% in 2017.
The Dreamliner kicked off a next-generation revolution with its fuel-efficient engines and aerodynamically-friendly features. The private variant of the jet costs upwards of $200 million and fly to nearly any city on Earth non-stop.
Estimates are that operating A380s costs between $26,000 and $29,000 per hour. By contrast, an average flight on an American Airlines 737-800, which can hold 160-175 passengers and has a range of about 2,900 miles, costs $2,180 per hour.
The Bottom LineOn average, a $75,000 financed Cessna winds up costing $200 per hour, if flown 100 hours per year, with $80 going toward fuel, oil and maintenance. Similar aircraft may be rented for about $125 per hour.
