I don't get it either, but that is the one UA and Ryanair wanted the most. The numbers must be compelling.

Boeing finally made room for the pilot’s roller bags.

The -10 can only do 3,100 NM range?

Please someone tell me this is a joke

With the exception of an extremely small number of routes currently flown by the 757, how is this even remotely an issue? It won’t do ORD-LIM, but it will do transcons all day long with room to spare. Practically everything flown by a NB is well under 3,100 miles.

the 3200-3500nm range 321s and 321neos have trouble in winter winds with some of the longer transcons or hawaii. that could be an issue for the -10 also

The 321XLR will cover those trips currently being covered by the 757 due to the range while the Max and NEO can take care of the overwhelming majority of the NB flying. Long range plan is to replace the 767 with the 787, and the 757 with the Max, NEO, and XLR where appropriate.

I am having trouble telling the difference between that pic of the Max 10 and a Max 9. And I fly the Max 9 constantly...

Its the Polaris configuration they want so they can bag the premium customer doing SFO to DCA or LAX to EWR.

…Which isn’t far off from the 321 neo range without the addition of ACT’s. Not sure why you’re surprised by this, it’s incremental decrease in range for each stretch of the airframe. Historically the longer variants have always had less range.
