Why do I have low fuel

[BritishAirways001]

Hello everyone I am flying a long flight 14 hours I put 16 hours for fuel but now I have 6 hours (it has been 7 hours) I am in the B77W at FL370 what should I do route OMDB-KORD

You should be fine. Feel free to look at Andrew Wu’s fuel burn and cruise altitude post for future reference!

Your Guide to Fuel Burn and Cruising Altitudes in the New 777 Family [IGNORE 777F]

[CFIUV] REWORKED 777 CRUISE PROFILES 20.2’s Open Beta is upon us, and clearly the main attractions are the reworked 777 models. In this tutorial, I’ll go over the ideal cruise altitudes for the 777-200(LR), 777-200(F), 777-300(ER), and our old friend, the 777-200(ER), so you can get maximum range out of them. Follow these, and you’ll go far (literally). These four aircraft have three things in common: big power, big range, and big penalties for choosing the wrong cruise altitude. They’re r…

also keep in mind, that the longer you fly, the more fuel you burn, so you get lighter during ur flight, this also affects the fuelburn.

With everything that has been said, I am pretty sure you will be fine for the rest of your flight.
