This sounds like a question a terrorist might ask.

Watch yourself.

The A340-200 holds about 41,000 gallons of fuel and has a range of 8,000nm. If you do the math, it would burn a little more than 60% of the fuel during the trip, or about 25,000 gallons.

Of course the number of passengers, baggage and wind speeds will dramatically change the fuel burn.
