The airframe is outfitted in a high-density single-aisle passenger layout with a typical two-class capacity approximately 178 passengers, reflecting the operator’s focus on higher-capacity, short- to medium-haul services. Avionics fit is consistent with the Boeing 737 MAX family baseline, supporting modern flight-deck systems and operational efficiencies expected of this variant. Typical mission profiles for this aircraft include domestic and transborder routes within the continental range of 3,550 nm, using cruise speeds near 453 kts and operating to typical airline cruise altitudes up to 41,000 ft. Maintenance considerations are driven by the LEAP-1B engine type and Boeing’s MAX-system commonality; routine airline maintenance programs and manufacturer service bulletins apply as part of Sun Country Airlines’ fleet operations.

The Boeing 737-8K5 (737 MAX 8) occupies the narrow-body, single-aisle performance niche optimized for fuel efficiency, range, and high-density passenger economics. It competes with other modern single-aisle types in airline short- to medium-haul markets, where buyers and charter operators prioritize seat-mile cost, range of 3,550 nm, and fleet commonality. Resale and maintenance considerations for this serial (37244) reflect the LEAP-1B engine family and MAX fleet support environment, with market demand influenced by airline network strategies and regulatory status of the MAX family in various jurisdictions.
