You have plenty of fuel left - don't panic!

You should be starting your descent at around 150nm (at around -1300fpm) so you won't be using much fuel then. Keep to the speed restrictions and flap restrictions / gear restrictions and you should be fine. You should even have the required 45 mins fuel for emergencies.

My guess is that you will land with around 13% fuel Wink
