The Boeing 737-85P (a 737-800 family member) occupies the prevalent single-aisle medium-haul market niche, balancing capacity—175 seats—and range (3,115 nm) for dense short- to transcontinental routes. Competing types in its era include stretched Airbus A320 variants and other Next Generation narrowbodies; market demand for this configuration historically favors low-cost and leisure carriers seeking high-density layouts. Maintenance and resale considerations for a 2005-built 737-800 center on engine life, structural checks, and interior refurbishment costs; the listed value of $17,550,000 reflects these lifecycle factors for a mid-life, airline-configured airframe.
