It's approximately 2300 to Bejing. Wonder how much extra fuel they carry?
We were told that they had about 1 - 1.5 hours extra fuel when the news first broke.
5.5 - 6 hour flight. They allegedly had 7 hours of fuel when they took off.
I have also seen reports that they had 8 hours worth of fuel...
However, 7 hours is the only time I've seen a number sourced from someone who might know.
This is from the first page of the first thread as we learned about it.
