    FAQ

    Boeing 737 MAX 8 questions

    How much does a Boeing 737 MAX 8 cost?

    Boeing's last published list price for a new Boeing 737 MAX 8 was $121.6M (2019). Airlines order in volume and pay well below list, and used airliners trade privately or on lease terms, so Radar does not estimate what one is worth.

    What are the Boeing 737 MAX 8's specs?

    As published: up to 175 passengers, a range of 3,550 nm (4,085 statute miles), a high-speed cruise of 453 ktas (521 mph), a ceiling of 41,000 ft and 2 × CFM International LEAP-1B28 engines. A given aircraft varies with its completion, weight and modifications.

    How far can a Boeing 737 MAX 8 fly?

    The Boeing 737 MAX 8's published range is 3,550 nautical miles (4,085 statute miles). Winds, payload, cruise speed and the reserves a flight carries change what a given trip can do.

    Can a Boeing 737 MAX 8 cross the Atlantic?

    Yes. New York to London is about 2,986 nm, inside the Boeing 737 MAX 8's published range of 3,550 nm, so the crossing can be flown nonstop.

    Can a Boeing 737 MAX 8 fly to Hawaii?

    Yes. Los Angeles to Honolulu is about 2,217 nm, well inside the Boeing 737 MAX 8's published range of 3,550 nm.

    How fast is the Boeing 737 MAX 8?

    The Boeing 737 MAX 8 cruises at up to 453 knots true airspeed (about 521 mph), and its maximum operating Mach number is 0.79, as published.

    How high can a Boeing 737 MAX 8 fly?

    The Boeing 737 MAX 8 is certified to 41,000 feet. Heavy aircraft climb there in steps as they burn fuel.

    How many passengers does a Boeing 737 MAX 8 seat?

    Up to 175 passengers, the most the type is published for. Many aircraft are completed with fewer, larger seats, so a given Boeing 737 MAX 8 may seat fewer.
