About

The Boeing 737 MAX 8 is the most popular MAX variant and direct successor to the best-selling 737-800. Seating 162-210 passengers, it offers 14% lower fuel costs per seat and significantly reduced noise compared to its predecessor. Despite the 2019-2020 grounding, over 2,000 MAX 8s have been delivered and it remains a cornerstone of single-aisle aviation.
