The Southwest 737 MAX 8 Experience
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 сер 2022
- My last flight of this Tampa Take 2 Trip was supposed to be aboard a regular Southwest B737-800...until suddenly a MAX 8 appeared out of nowhere giving me my first ride aboard their newest plane! And man was it a treat to fly. Didn't really know what to expect when stepping onboard but the cabin certainly exceeded my expectations and the MAX is now by far the best aircraft in Southwest's fleet. Hope you guys enjoy!

As a Southwest flight attendant, this is one of my favorite planes to work. Spacious and easier to tidy up after a trip.
why did you become a flight attendant??
@@SpottinPlanesForLife because I wanted to. 🤷🏽♀️
@@KenyaG. thats cool!
@@KenyaG. ur ears get used to popping?
@@Crosbie85 no...😩
Flying the 737 MAX always makes me happy, although it had a rocky start I love being on it (after knowing it's safe ofc) it is a great new plane and such a smooth ride, especially when flying with SWA!
Recently traveled on a Southwest Max and noticed how much quieter it was.
FINALLY THE VIDEO IVE BEEN WAITING FOR
YEAH?!!!
After hearing so many negative opinions about Boeing 737 MAX, it's awesome to hear a positive opinion for a change.
I agree, I definitely think the MAX is safe to fly, considering how there hasn’t been any new accidents yet.
I’ve ridden the 8Max multiple times on Southwest and American Airlines…I’ll admit I was really nervous at first, but thankfully it turned out to be great rides every time.
Agreed
Exactly. People have to realize how many millions of passengers have now safely flown on them since they were un-grounded
They’re just as safe as any other 737 series now
@@MatthewsAviationChannel it’s also the most scrutinized plane ever. It would be Boeings and the FAA’s death wish if they didn’t properly reverting this plane!
Thanks for another great video! Will be flying Southwest for the first time in October when I make it over to the states, your videos are a great introduction as to what to expect. 😁
I’m not gonna lie just came off a flight in a south west max 8. When I realized what plane we were flying I got nervous
I recently flew into Houston from LAX on a MAX 8. I must say when I first sat down and noticed the plane model I was super nervous b/c of the craziness that was happening with the MAX 8’s
The take off was very smooth… the MAX was literally eating the CLOUDS ☁️ LOL
As for landing 🛬… this is the loudest engine I’ve ever heard and it had some sort of roller coaster effect when breaking. It literally thrusted my body forward 😂😂😂 none of the passengers were expecting that we kind of chuckled and made eye contact with one another.
I love SWA
I am still very worried & upset of what happened with that horrible crash which was totally preventable & feeling real bad for those lost lives !! I recently happened to watch a documentary film on Amazon ? on my smart TV., too. I wish if Southwest select other aircrafts for the routes I am interested in !! Glad to know it was o.k. ,though ! 💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️💞
So perfect that you posted this because im doing this exact thing next month!
Just saw one of our flights in a few days went from the 737-800 to 737 Max 8 and got so happy. Will be my first experience
Love the content keep it up,Chris!
I'm scheduled to fly on the Southwest MAX in January! So excited to finally get to experience it! I was already very impressed with the 737-800 so I can't wait to experience the MAX for myself!
Ahh, so this is what you meant by something new and unexpected. Looks like the MAX experience is worth it. I also didn't even realize it was a MAX from the outside, but on the interior it looks pretty cool too.
I'm a big fan of Southwest as well, will probably see if I end up flying one of their MAXes in the future.
❤❤❤❤😍Your channel is literally my comfort place. You make me so happy. Love you 🤗❤
I flew Southwest Boeing 737 Max 8 back in 2019 before the grounding. It was a really great experience! Would 1,000% fly on a Southwest 737 Max again!
Just flew on one of theirs STL-OKC this last Tuesday. It’s awesome and it was the quietest and best smelling plane I’ve ever been on.
737 MAX is just superb!!!!
I’ll be flying on one of these in a few months. I’m really excited.
Flew on the MAX for the first time in this past May and again in June, both times were random changes from the -800 as with you. Definitely my favorite aircraft from Southwest.
Just flew the MAX-8 for my first time in N8815L. Interior mostly same as the 8H4’s except as your notations and also cabinet between doorway and main cabin up front quite similar as the 700 series where as the 800NG’s have the half cabinet quite similar to the old classics now retired. I truly love the quieter LEAP engines.
Great experience last year from Vegas to love field!
Love your videos brother
Keep up the great content
Absolutely fantastic video Chris!😸
Hey Life's Ups and Downs!
@@BluegrassElevators howdy!
I have not been flying on B737 Max.Great work
I’ve had a comfortable MAX flight back to FLL from SJU on Southwest back in October. Was nervous at first but once off the ground, no turbulence throughout the flight. Was also lucky that the middle seat had no one in it despite what was said that it was going to be a full flight.
Shout out from Johnstown, PA. My first B737-MAX was on United from IAH-IAD, really great aircraft! 💯❤️✈️
It looks decent, I have only flown them once, RT, not the worst but would not bother again, as far as low cost carriers I truly like Frontier. Happy landings! Hope you do another PNW, Alaska trip soon.
I love the max
Its spacious and comfortable
I flew southwest from Oregon to California last October and it was a great flight
I really enjoy your videos. You and symbols aviation. Well done. Windows are the same size and shape as all 737's, I believe. Just the interior panels are different; hence you can see the squared off corners.
i actually flew my first MAX 8 last Saturday it was so cool
Flew on a United 737 Max 8/9 it was so nice the newest plane I ever rode it was fresh and clean
The max is very nice :) and so was this video! Was watching while eating some pasta! Your dad looks very nice too :)
I was just upgraded to a Southwest Boeing 737MAX 8from Columbus Ohio to Orlando. I'll be flying out tomorrow morning at 5:45am
I was actually so close on flying on board one of southwest 737 Max’s from DEN-PHL and was really excited to try it out, But it got changed like 1 day before I left to a regular 800 model
I like the video so much thejazzguy13 it's very good video
Grew up in FLL!! Great plane spotting areas on the west side of the airfield!!
I flew on southwest to and from Tennessee which was a shortb1 hr and 10 minute hop and i flew on the 737 MAX8 amd it was much quietier and man i loved their mood lighting! Definitely will fly them again!
I have flown on 4 Southwest 737 MAX 8's this year and I would definitely go out of my way to fly on them on Southwest again!
I flew on a United 737 MAX 9 (my first flight on 737 MAX) from San Francisco to Phoenix earlier this year. It was a great experience!
Ngl southwest has the best snack mix
I can't wait for the Boeing 737 MAX 7 to fly for Southwest Airlines
Dude southwest’s snavk mix is the shit!
I love the intro shot you did :)
I do, too.
I was supposed to fly the MAX at the beginning of this month (August 2022), but they switched it out for an 800 last minute. I was really looking forward to it. Maybe next time.
I flew on a united max 9 February 2021 and was pleased with the plane I may not be fond of the 737 platform for various reasons but it was a decent yet nearly silent plane.
I loved this plane! I felt like it was roomier and quiet. The windows seemed to be higher and easier to look out of.
I am a terrified flyer and had a trip planned in July but they changed my plane from an 800 to a max 8... I cancelled 😂 just here to see how nice they are
jesus that’s sad
@@nismo29No,really ! I am not a frightened flyer ,but still upset/ concerned of Boeing Max aircrafts !! That horrible crash was totally preventable !! 💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️💞
I understand ! 💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️💞
I fly SWA a lot but funny enough I have not been on a WN Max yet. Cool video
I like your videos. I used to fly in and out of FLL a lot and I have to say, there is nothing good about terminal 1 or any of the terminals there. They are very crowded, rude people and just plain chaos. At one time it was a really nice small airport that was easy to access and get around... not anymore. I suspect that you ate at Margaritaville. Yeah, the food is pretty dreadful. keep up your videos and reviews. They are enjoyable.
On one trip about a month ago all of my flights happened to be on MAX 8 aircraft, even got some cool engine views from one of them
The max is not bad at all!
Flew on an Alaska MAX 9, best experience I've ever had. Seats were very comfortable, everything felt brand new, the plane was quiet, and the bathrooms were clean and large. Oh, and it's the first time I could have a large backpack under the seat in front of me and still be able to fully stretch my legs. Alaska also has full universal outlets and usb ports.
Their max8 is really nice
I just flew on southwest max 8 to Maui!! Great leg room!!!
Did same. Agreed!
I just booked tickets on a Boeing 737 max from Minneapolis to Chicago, I was hoping it would offer a great experience since both my daughters will be on it and are very excited to fly for the first time.
Finna fly for my first time ever on southwest Business select hopefully it's a nice experience.
I was so nervous flying on a MAX from O'hare to VA. In the air, I swear the plane was going to drop out of the sky because it was so quiet😱 I hate flying. But it was nice.
Flew this flow Vegas to Hawaii 9/10
The AA 737 max configuration is so uncomfortable. The southwest seats are just so much nicer. Nice review
My fav operating civilian plane
And the Max are much quieter than the NG.
I’m flying The Max 8 this Dec but It’s With Arajet Dominican Air from Toronto-Brazil 🎉
I like the 737-800 Max and 737-900 Max. I have flown both and prefer them.
The 737 MAX also has the cool mood lighting on all the aircrafts while the 737-800s the older ones on Southwest do while the newer ones do not
I recommend it southwest to family and friends
I hope to fly on a 737 MAX 8 in December from Tampa to Atlanta. I was supposed to fly on one in March on Southwest but it got swapped to a 737-800 from Omaha to Atlanta.
For the first time to my knowledge, we get a glimpse of jazzdad and jazzsister! :) Have not flown the Max but have flown the -800 series, interior of Max vs 800 looks identical to me. With your arrival at PIT around midnight, what time did you get home and crash? I hope to fly SWA again but this time,booking the "Wanna Get Away Plus" fare category to earn more Rapid Reward points. I like their Early Bird check in and like you, two free checked bags.At the time, were you mentally prepared to move to San Francisco, so far from home?
I actually saw TGJ13's sister in his Cedar Point video.
Best hair and legs in the video airline revie biz lol.
Not the betrayal at the beginning 😢 😂😂
I was supposed to fly the 737 max with Southwest Airlines on a 3 hour flight between Chicago and Phoenix but it was changed to a 737-800 which I just recently flown. It wasn't a big deal for me because the 737 max and the 737-800 have the exact same seating capacity and I expected seeing the same cabin interior design.
I love the Max. One thing I like - I feel like they land smoother than the NG. What I dont like - the individual air vents which dont blow as much air and look gross when dirty.
You can fault the airline for that, not the plane. Believe me that you would found worse things for a stomach pain in Spirit a320neo!
SW might be the only airline I'd feel comfortable flying on a MAX.
Hi dude good video
I agree
Thanks for the commentary in your videos. What music soundtrack called?
Usually the last flight out is fairly empty but not always. Also having A50 on a 175 seat plane with no early bird tells you light flight.
I flew the MAX today. Gawd it is so nice compared to the NG.
Looks like any other 737-8 except with a new interior. Hard to make these planes anything but what they are - flying buses.
Chris, WHY in the WORLD did you move to CALIFORNIA?!! Thanks for the videos!
I was honestly shocked when he announced he was going to move to California. I pictured him living in Alaska, New England, Chicago, New York, the Pacific Northwest, or any music-centric city in the South, but I never pictured him living in California. Then a few weeks after the move, he made a video about that, and it made sense to me. He moved to San Francisco for a new chapter in his life in grad school. He had the choice to spend grad school at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, but he decided to move to San Francisco instead because he wanted a big change. San Francisco is also music-centric, which benefits him as a musician.
You were on a Southwest flight with empty seats? Haven’t seen that since COVID lockdowns
Wow the first gate. Feel like that never happens
It's a shame that 32" is considered generous legroom
The time when 32" was standard and JetBlue had 34-35"... Pepperidge Farms remembers 😁
Im a little bit affraid watching videos about this model of airplane... i go to dominican republic from colombia the next week but im nervious :( they are fully fixed now?
Yes they have been fixed since 2018
Is the 737 MAX 8 safe to fly?
Have you tried American’s max?
That’s a really nice aircraft overall…. 🤷♂️
Last flight I took was JFK - LHR on a 16 month old 777-300ER
I haven't flown SW since last summer, has texting always been free? I thought it cost money, just not the full price for internet. I'm eager to fly the MAX, my dad really enjoyed his flight in one, said it was the quietest plane he's been on.
Glad that he enjoys it! Tell him he ear would be comfy if he select a new plane generation!
Texting is free and always has been
On Southwest Airlines Boeing 737-700s the back lavatory has no changing tables only the front one does
So you and your handlers always use the front one?
@@liflyer0413 nope avoid using the lavatories on airplanes
I like Southwest (mostly), but they did the same thing to me (bait and switch a 737-800 for a 737 Max 8). For the opposite approach, look at Alaska Airlines - they are completely up front about their 737 max aircraft.
Hi
@Chris jazz if i get the chance to fly on one southwests new max 8 to iad i will gladly take it
Maybe an evening flight was the reason why everything was closed too.
I didn't think it was THAT good .
although I don’t generally like the 737 max, for some reason southwest made the flight better.
Southwest airlnes go states?
I have a flight on southwest in 4 weeks on the Max 8 hope they don’t change out for an older plane would like to experience the improvements.
Did you travel in Southwest airlines to Pittsburgh with your family members? Who all travelled with you in your family?
I remember when people uploaded 737 MAX trip reports after they grounded the planes and people were like at least you didn't die same with the ones in 2017 and 2018. One youtuber decided to upload that video until the 737 MAX was back in service basically two years in the making. At first I thought he flew on it recently but said pre COVID and pre MAX groundings and didn't want harsh comments on his UA-cam videos
