Because of our simple and more efficient aircraft design, the 737 MAX requires less maintenance. We continually examine every maintenance requirement and engineer a simple, robust aircraft that minimizes upkeep and delivers the longest mean time between overhaul.
The 737 MAX is also the easiest aircraft in its class to maintain. So it will take less time and cost less to service when maintenance does come due.
LEAP-1B: 69-inch fan
CFM56-7: 61-inch fan
A key driver of 737 MAX fuel savings is the new CFM LEAP-1B engine. The engine is designed for the rigors of single-aisle operations and tailor-made for the 737 MAX.
Because of the 737’s popularity with airlines everywhere around the world, integrating the new 737 MAX is an easy proposition. As you build your 737 MAX fleet, millions of dollars will be saved because of its commonality with the Next-Generation 737, ease of maintenance, wide availability of 737 pilots, and the global infrastructure that supports the aircraft in operation.
The 737 MAX advanced technology winglets are the most efficient ever designed for a production airplane, because of the combination of advanced design and manufacturing techniques allowing for natural laminar flow. The winglets reduce fuel burn by approximately 2 percent.
The 737 MAX delivers significant savings in fuel and improved environmental performance. The 737 MAX reduces fuel use and CO2 emissions by 20 percent compared to the airplanes it replaces, while offering airlines greater profitability, with 7 percent lower operating costs on average than the competition.

50% below CAEP/6 limits for NOx
50% smaller community noise footprint*
