Southeast expects new 737s in 2024
CHICAGO - Southwest Airlines expects Boeing's 737 MAX 7 aircraft will get certification from the Federal Aviation Administration by April, allowing the carrier to start flying them in mid-to-late fall, a SWA exec told Reuters.
Dallas-based carrier is the largest customer of the airplane, the smallest model in Boeing's MAX family.
Last month, SWA unveiled new orders for an additional 108 MAX 7s for deliveries through 2031. (Reuters 11/10/23) Exclusive: Southwest Airlines expects certification of Boeing's 737 MAX 7 by April, company executive says | Reuters
"For our internal planning purposes, we assume it'll be certified in April and then flying for us in the October-November time frame," Andrew Watterson, chief operating officer at Southwest, said in an interview late Thursday.
He said, however, that the April estimate includes a buffer and certification could still happen this year or in early 2024 as Boeing is making progress with the FAA resolving open items on certification. "We don't want a delay to affect our plans so we put padding in there," Watterson said.
