波音在3/21交付第一架737 MAX 9給獅航集團的泰國獅航(註冊編號HS-LSH)
737 MAX 9最大載客數可達220人，最大航程可達3550nmi
不過波音推出737 MAX 10後，一堆MAX 9客戶轉單更大的MAX 10，導致現在MAX 9只剩下104架訂單，只比MAX 7的58架好一點
UA更是大讚波音推出MAX 10做對了，只減少250nmi航程換多塞10個座位
MAX 9不但要跟外患A321neo競爭,還有內憂MAX 8-200跟MAX 10夾殺,前景可說堪慮

"The 737 MAX 9 is a perfect fit for our growing business in Thailand," said

economics and reliability in the industry."

maximum range of 3,550 nautical miles. With three additional seat rows
compared to the 737 MAX 8, this airplane provides operators added capacity
while maximizing profitability within their network.

destinations in the single-aisle market. The 737 MAX incorporates the latest
CFM International LEAP-1B engines, Advanced Technology winglets, Boeing Sky
