Boeing 737-800 - plane used in Lost episode, can't be sure it is an 800 but the 800 has the longest range.
Range: 3,060 nautical miles
Distance from LAX to Guam - 6113 statute miles so 5312 nautical miles

This took me about 5 minutes to find with the assistance of google, I wish the producers would have taken the time.

When the pilot states that "I guess we aren't headed to Guam", he probably should have known that, seeing they would have run out of fuel shortly after Hawaii.

It has always been a major peeve of mine that they use stock footage of some generic aircraft in movies and tv shows, but they actually took the time to brand the airplane. Why not spend the time to figure out you have the wrong aircraft for the itinerary!!
