A fully loaded aircraft gets pretty good fuel economy per person, at least as good as a Prius. I've seen figures from 50-100mpg depending on aircraft and of course how fully loaded it is.
So it's basically like driving a little less than the flight distance.

I don't remember exactly why, but it's worse because of its location rather than the actual amount.
