Air aviation news – US ultra-low-cost carrier (ULCC) Southwest Airlines has placed an order with Boeing<\/a>\u00a0for an additional 108\u00a0Boeing<\/a>\u00a0737 Max 7 airliners.<\/p>\n

The new aircraft will replace older generation 737s at the all\u00a0Boeing<\/a>\u00a0airline, increase fuel efficiency, and grow its route network.<\/p>\n

The move shows confidence in the\u00a0Boeing<\/a>\u00a0737 despite delivery delays due to quality issues in production.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have a long history with\u00a0Boeing<\/a>, dating back more than 50 years to the day we commenced service with three\u00a0Boeing<\/a>\u00a0737 aircraft serving three cities,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0said Bob Jordan, president and chief Executive Officer of Southwest Airlines.\u00a0\u201cThey\u2019re part of our history and part of our future as we continue to recognize the many efficiencies and cost savings of a single fleet.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The additional aircraft take Southwest\u2019s orders for the Max 7 to over 300 for the variant which is yet to be certified.<\/p>\n

Stan Deal, president and CEO of\u00a0Boeing<\/a>\u00a0Commercial Airplanes said:\u00a0\u201cWith the world\u2019s largest all-Boeing<\/a>, all-737 fleet, Southwest is counting on the exceptional efficiency and reliability of the 737 MAX family,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0adding\u00a0\u201cThe 737-7 is pivotal to Southwest\u2019s long-term fleet modernization strategy, and we are honoured to have the airline\u2019s continued trust in us to deliver its future fleet.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The\u00a0Boeing<\/a>\u00a0737 Max 7 (B37M) can carry up to 172 passengers up to 3,800 nautical miles, giving it the longest range in its class, with a significant fuel reduction on the previous generation of\u00a0Boeing<\/a>\u00a0737-700s.<\/p>\n
