how will the MAX 8 really do out of EYW? I am just surprised AA and UA haven’t jumped on it out out of there if it supposedly has the performance to do it. EGE wise UA already use it to DEN, albeit it’s a very short flight. Even the 738 should do EYW then, a bunch of 738’s go through SDU in Brazil which only has 4300ft.
