I wonder how United is doing on their new pond crossing routes on the MAX. Ex. EWR-GLA

Yeah they fly it from KEF twice a day. Imagine how horrible 8 hours in that thing would be 😵 Although the 757 is just as miserable for the pax, but those poor guppy pilots...

from what I heard they take some restrictions on the MAX. The A321neoLR can do it below MTOW and not maxed out on fuel full boat. The MAX 8 can fly far, the A321neo does as well when you configure it to, it’s also a much bigger plane.

India gets mentioned, also the higher J planes(high J 339 likely with 70% premium) No mention of SIN which was a bit disappointing, and also J+ in the bulkheads, not sure if that will include extra service perks.

Seems India will be off limit unless the 350 ever ends up in JFK, the Block time would be 19 hours westbound into ATL, you need an A359ULR or 35K ULR for that, that is a non-starter, obviously.
