    They're certainly big, but I don't know if they are the BEST I've tasted.

    Maybe CCP should build more suicide nets in China?

    Makes sense considering their fleet is mostly 737s, saves costs in maintenance and aircrew training. The new Max IOS patch seems to be working.

    First flight in ~3 years was a couple of weeks ago on a MAX 8. Didn’t even notice until I was checking in for my return flight which was also a MAX 8 (not that it would have made a difference). Didn’t die, would recommend.

    Funny thing is I heard some people chatting that they thought it was an old plane while I was in line waiting in the aisle getting to my seat. I told them actually no it was one of the new ones that they took out of service for a few years and they brought back recently. They seemed a bit nervous for a few mins lol.

    I really like the big overhead bins on these things. Nice not to be hassled during boarding to check your carry on.

    Yeah bins are way better than the original 737.

    The economy class of max8 is pretty damn bad. Flew a few recently and felt more like a sardine than any other flight this year.

    Need to stop being a pleb and flying economy it seems.

    The airline has a lot of input into that. Not all maxi economy seats are equal.

    As long as people use them properly and put their bags in standing up on end, they work great.

    Ryanair has managed to stuff 200 seats into the Max 8, to make an already dreadful flying experience even worse for those unfortunate enough to fly with them.

    Seatguru says WJ is only 162+12, so to get to 200 you'd need 4 or 5 more rows. Yikes.

    Worst seatguru map I could find was Ryan air and Norwegian Air both at 189 seats. Though I think that's Ryan air's old 737-800 and not the new Max planes.

    189:

    Ryan air's new Max with 197:

    Same with an elevator, the best time to be on an airplane is after a disaster

    I didn't realize that was an airline level modification. Makes sense.
