In other words, the Boeing 777 targets a higher capacity than the A330. Measuring over 10 meters longer than the A330-300 and the 777-200, the 777-300 seats a significantly higher number of passengers. Meanwhile, the smaller A330-200 is more comparable in passenger capacity with the Boeing 767-400.
On the surface, these are two very similar airplanes, with very similar specifications. While the Airbus has slightly more passenger capacity, thanks to its slightly superior length, the Boeing has a more generous belly for cargo, and a greater range overall.
The Max 10 can carry 228 passengers, one-fifth more than the 189 seats fitted in the Boeing 737 NGs, which still make up most of Ryanair's aircraft. Ryanair expects that half the new deliveries will replace the 737 NG aircraft, cutting its fleet's average age and fuel consumption.
The move away from the MAX name has been a subtle process and Boeing has begun to use the name 737 MAX and 737-8(7 through 10) interchangeably. This way they are transitioning away from the MAX name toward the normal naming convention of modern Boeing aircraft.
While the average passenger might not notice many major differences between the two, the MAX is a major improvement over the 737-800 especially in terms of overall efficiency and range, and passengers can expect to continue seeing more MAX aircraft over the coming years as Boeing continues to fill its backlog of orders ...
Despite the FlyersRights concerns, the FAA, Boeing and many pilots deem the 737 MAX safe to fly and many airlines have the plane in service. “I can say categorically that the 737 MAX product is safe,” then-acting FAA administrator Bill Nolen told members of the US Senate Commerce Committee in March.
No refusals to travelAs such, many airlines prepared for nervous passengers to refuse to fly on the aircraft. Ryanair was one of these, with CEO Michael O'Leary stating in 2020 that passengers could have their tickets refunded if they refused to travel on the type.
ARLINGTON, Va., May 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Boeing [NYSE: BA] and Ryanair announced Europe's leading low-cost airline has selected the largest 737 MAX model to power its future growth with an order for up to 300 airplanes.
Surprisingly, despite being bigger, the Airbus A380 can reach speeds of more than 1,000 kilometres per hour compared to the Boeing 787 which tops out at 954kph. Although both are very fast, passengers flying on the Airbus A380 could get to their destination quicker than those flying on the Boeing.
Fuel savings and revenue. One crucial advantage of the A330 is its low fuel consumption. In the mid to late 1970s, Airbus found the type could carry the same amount of passengers as a McDonnell Douglas DC-10 but with 25% better fuel efficiency.
