Southwest Orders 108 737 MAX 7<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Bob Jordan, President & Chief Executive Officer of Southwest Airlines, highlighted their longstanding relationship with Boeing, spanning over 50 years, from the airline’s initial service with three Boeing 737 aircraft serving three cities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He emphasized Boeing’s significance in both its history and future as it continues to recognize the many operational efficiencies and cost savings associated with a single-fleet strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Southwest has a history of relying on the 737 family to support its growth, with over 300 orders for the 737-7, resulting in an orderbook of more than 500 737 MAX jets. Upon certification, the 737-7 will join Southwest’s existing all-Boeing 737 fleet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

World’s Largest 737 Operator<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Southwest Airlines, operating the world’s largest all-Boeing and all-737 fleet, places great confidence in the exceptional efficiency and reliability of the 737 MAX family. This was emphasized by Stan Deal, President and CEO of Boeing Commercial Airplanes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He expressed that the 737-7 holds a crucial role in Southwest’s long-term fleet modernization strategy and acknowledged the airline’s continued trust in Boeing for delivering their future fleet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 737-7 boasts the longest range in its class, with the ability to cover distances of up to 3,800 nautical miles while accommodating up to 172 passengers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The improved environmental performance of the 737 MAX contributes to reduced fuel consumption compared to earlier aircraft generations. Additionally, the 737 MAX is quieter, resulting in a smaller noise footprint when compared to the older jets it replaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
