Got any suggestions on where I should go next? Let me know!!!
Welcome to iTripReport's flight reviews, which I focus on reviewing both the soft product and hard product of airlines around the globe. I strive to give you guys a first person perspective of different aspects of the flight. Including the ground service, onboard service, and those views that come with the flight. As you can see, I record quite a lot of the experience to make sure I record what you want to watch. As always, thank you so much for watching.
9:50..."If and when we reach our cruising altitude..." Doesn't inspire much confidence 😂
No kidding lmao 🤣
It does scare the crap out of passengers
I mean its understandable, because it just resumed flying after the grounding of all the MAX, ever since the crash of Lion air 610, and Ethiopian Airlines 302, do I understand why they're not confident
Your thumbnails are just amazing!! Keep up the great work, glad to see SWA is putting the MAX’s back in business!
I would have no problem flying on the Max.
Congrats?
Congrats on surviving hell
I would. I wish that Southwest would abandon the MAX and go all in on Airbus, whether it be A320NEO or better yet A220
@@soravulpis96 now we are talking
@@soravulpis96 That's already not happening. Southwest is looking at 130 orders and 170 options for the MAX right now. Airbus was not even in the picture.
Thank you for the video! Really helpful as I will be flying on one of these plans to Maui this week. Very helpful!!!
that engine sound though...amazing
I flew on this airplane on its next leg to MCO.
I saw you land! Nice video. Love the max - have been on 8 of them since the ungrounding.
Wow
Fantástico como siempre. ya estoy esperando el próximo.
7:50 Wow, that was some GREAT natsound of the engine roar for plane takeoff!
I've already been on the MAX twice and love it, it's such a quiet aircraft and loved every minute of both of those flights
😂😂😂
@@adl6907 ???
Does your name mean stooge? Clown.
I loved my flight on the max. A new 737max9 on United with new interior. Stunning flight.
Great video as always Emil! Look forward to more. :D
Emil I can't believe it. You finally flew on a Southwest MAX
Yes his luck
14:30 ..skimming the clouds. My favorite part of flight videos bar taking off, of course, bcuz you really get a sense of just how fast your flying!
I am flying on a Southwest’s 737 MAX8 in a few weeks and am very excited
I would have no problem flying on a MAX - it’s likely one of the safest aircraft flying now after all the scrutiny it went through.
Yeah the 787 is much safer
Yeah no. The name is forever tarnished and the fact that it needed that much scrutiny is concerning. What if the regulators missed something.
The Chinese civil authorities are still unwilling to give the MAX the go ahead. I trust them more than the FAA, which likely caved into Boeing.
@@soravulpis96 The only reasons for that is politics and china want's there plane to win in asia😂.

RETURN OF THE KING
I’m flying on a Max in two days and on my way home we are also flying on a max. Can’t wait!
Me encantan tus vídeos!🇲🇽
So very happy to see our MAXs back in the sky! Thanks for the awesome review! 💛❤️💙
🤣🤣🤣
Only to get grounded again for electrical issues. This plane is an insult to engineering.
@@VASGOT88 It isn't lol. There haven't been any crashes after the grounding. They've fixed all of the issues this plane has had. I've flown on one. It's quiet, smooth, and no issues whatsoever.
@@orcinusapple7343 After 10 years with no major incidents, I would trust flying this plane, until then I consider the 737 MAX a trash can.
my home airport! i enjoyed watching this, great video!
Thanks for sharing, awesome video. I have flown in SW and AA 737 8 and 9 Max i will do it all day long I love it.
I'm flying on the max8 tomorrow. First time. Can't wait!
I would most definitely fly on the 737max. I'd actually prefer it. Cool video. Thanks for sharing.
Flew the SWA Max 8 just last weekend during labor day trip. It was a fantastic experience. I too was pleasantly suprised by the legroom!
Personally I think the 737 always been a beautiful airplane, I mean it’s smooth lines, the somewhat pointy nose, the CFM International LEAP engines which by the way sound amazing when they’re spooling up! It just makes this airplane nothing but beautiful and it really has been a true workhorse in the aviation industry since it first came out back in 1967.
LOVE the pointy nose. That is so unapologetically Boeing. Most airframes now have a more rounding nose. Those CFMs with the flat bottoms are unapologetically 737. Such an iconic airplane and I think people overlook that because it's so common.
And congrats on getting permanyly banned 8n Robolox
Wow these are all the reasons I think the 737 is the worst and ugliest jet ever . Lol 😂 everyone has their own pref
@@tydouglas7568 I am personally offended Ty!!
@@mylesdias8453 hey ima Douglas jets guy !!! Now the MDs were gorgeous . Even with Boeing the 757 is the far the best looking and performance jet... the 737 are just ugly and old and slow . It work on em every day . I watch in Atlanta every 737-900er use the whole runway to get off the ground. they were not meant to be stretched this far . That nose and flat engine cowls are the worst
I love the Boeing 737!!! I can’t wait to be on a max 8 and max 7 for the first time once the older 737-700’s retire!!!💛💙❤️
I love the setup for the intro and music choice
Same here! The feel is similar to James Asquith YT videos
I'd fly any of the MAX's any day of the week. I got no problem with it.
Yep, you and your family fly on it for about a year and I will join you after that with my family.
I flew on Southwest’s MAX 8 a month ago, and I’ve got to say, it was the smoothest and quietest flight I’ve ever been on. I trust that Boeing and the FAA have done everything they need to to make sure that the MAX is safe.
@@LlamaMyth Lest also hope it since the max is not having no more problems from what I see. Have been a taught year
Amazing how you put this together so quickly!
It’s common knowledge to many now but Itripreport gets all of his editing done by someone he hires off of fiverr
@@victortretiakov5064 nah it's iMovie. You can edit one of these videos in like 2 hours or less. Depends how excited you are to make the video though 😂
@@inflightreports true
@@victortretiakov5064 only gaming CZcams's and big CZcams's do that
Wish to know you in person, going to miami on monday. Love your trip report style, also I'm trying to do that. Wish to fly on MAX soon, and thank you for these video, love it.
Keep going!
great trip report; i'm not sure I would be ready to fly on the 737Max but it looks really nice. It seems like you enjoyed the flight and hope you enjoyed the new MSY (hometown airport) and the beignets!
Just subscribed!
thanks man imma fly on one soon
Awesome !!!
Good video!!!
My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our flight on the MAX8 from Nashville to Philadelphia‼️ Excellent in every way; looking forward to our next MAX8 Flight😁
Unbelievably quiet LEAP engine sound wow!!
First time flying on a max on Saturday CANT WAIT
The Max is probably the safest plane in the sky right now given that Boeing and every government aviation agency around the globe went over that plane with surgical precision.
3:08 the loudest fart in history
I'll be flying the MAX on Saturday (3/27) on UA from DEN to LAX. Really looking forward to it!
I am stoked to get to fly not only one but two from LAX TO HNL and back. Cheers
I'm flying on SWA's MAX in about a month. Super hyped!
How was it
I feel completely fine flying on a max. I flew on one on my way back from Idaho. It was about an hour flight but it was incredibly smooth. Very comfortable, I'd fly on one anytime.
That’s cool the retro looking JetBlue tail in MSY
Great trip report and although I will not fly SW due to the seating It was fun to see the final airline to put the MAX back in the air. And yes, I have no issue flying the MAX.
Good Job 👍!
I love this music ajjaja “LP- girls go wild” 😍😍
N0 issues at all flying on a Max. “If it’s not Boeing, I ain’t going” !!!
That power down to climb thrust always scares the crap out of my wife. Had to explain what was going on multiple times 😂
Ditto. I’ll fly the Max. Looking forward to when my usual route gets one...
Wow those engines 😍.
I will be taking my 1st Southwest flight in August MCO-BWI, looking forward to the experience
9:49 "If and when we reach our cruising altitude" Poor choice of words
Maybe he's new
Well, hopefully, we will arrive safely. But, as I've said, we need to question the manufacturers and, more so, our safety regulators, as this aircraft wasn't safe for release.
As you may see elsewhere, I do have some expertise in aircraft and software safety (but I may be an Internet Troll for all you know). I'd just say we should be careful to await International expert questions on the B737 MAX before climbing on board.
It is PROBABLY now safe. But that's what Boeing and the FAA said before it killed many people and destroyed their families.
Boeing is (USUALLY) a highly respected company. I've flown around the globe many times on their aircraft; especially the fabulous 747 "Jumbo" game-changer aircraft. Wow, how good are the 747 and the regional 737s.
But, sometimes, things do go wrong. We (safety-critical designers, like myself) usually do something called "regression testing". That's where a proven design, like the 737, has had what's considered a minor upgrade.
But, oh hum, "minor upgrades" sometimes aren't what we think. That's why so-called clever people like me are required to do regression testing. Boeing didn't do that.
Many innocent people lost their lives through Negligence, followed by Corporate denial of liability. Boeing did a design change on their fabulous 737 aircraft. I could have told them it was unsafe, but they assumed it was safe. So people died and families were devastated.
These same people are now saying that the B737 MAX is safe. We've already heard that story from these selfsame people. Do YOU believe them? Are YOU qualified to question them?
To be honest, this time I probably do believe Boeing and the FAA.
All I'm saying is you're a brave person if you srep on-board a Boeing 737 MAX until the world's other aviation safety organisations give it safety release.
Go Boeing, you have enriched my life, albeit you lost my faith with the safety tests on the MAX.
Rick
I am considered to be an internationally fantastic expert in my field(s), but I'll readily admit, I can get things wrong.
The problem with Boeing and the FAA, and America in general, is that they don't like to admit when they make mistakes. --- To err is human, as we say. No one would blame Boeing nor the FAA if they admitted errors.
@@rickbear7249 well morning I will check with my colleagues to see what developments are tapping
@@rickbear7249 The EASA have done their own tests because they don't really trust the FAA anymore and it was safe
I flew the max back in 2017 PHX-LAS and it was a complete surprise to me since we were connecting thru PHX and we where late for our LAS flight. We had to run to the gate and didn’t have time to see what plane it was till I walked on board
I flew the max on AA from LAX-DCA in Dec 2018 and it was quiet. I remember that. I enjoyed the in-seat power, esp since it was a cross-county haul. Sad SWA lacks that...
I really enjoyed the Southwest Max
I'm set to fly on a MAX from San Diego to Baltimore in a few days. Looking forward to being on a newish aircraft. I am glad the FAA and others did the proper things to make this a much safer aircraft.
Love the MAX, it reminds me of the 737-800 except much more quiet. Southwest has been very loyal with Boeing and the American economy since GE built the first engines for the original 737.
Pratt & Whitney built the 1st engines for 737-100 & 200, JT8D. Also used on 727, DC-9 & many others.
I mean it is like the 737-800 but with larger engines, different winglets and a long apu engine at the tail
I would not have a problem flying the Max. I usual, great trip reports!
Congrats you should go on man vs wild
Personally for me, carry on bag + 2 free checked bags >>> in seat outlet. They're a low-cost carrier, so they have to cut costs somewhere.
so lucky I booked a max inaugural when it was March 4th and then they moved it to the 11th.
awesome 👏
Hope you love aviation videos as I do. This and James Asquith YT are my favs
Nice video...... Really like your subtle sense of humor - i.e. - bottomless glass of water, along with the choice of snack packs. (Forgot the Brand of agua). I do enjoy that in many of your vlogs. Would I fly on a MAX 8? Probably. As you pointed out, Boeing's reputation and future as an aircraft manufacturer is seriously riding on the success of the "fixed" MAX 8 & 9.
Ciao.....
I flew on a southwest 737 max this year and it just felt like a normal flight to me
It seems that the 737 max plane is safe to ride now. James Asquith made a review on this in his vlog.
I scheduled to see my father in FL on SW and just today noticed that it is on a Max 8. Initially became very concerned and looked for some info. I agree with your comment at the end of the video that it is the most recently scrutinized aircraft, and probably has a safety advantage right now. THANK YOU! :)
I would be a little nervous, but I would still fly on the MAX.
Same, I got nervous when I watched James Asquith YT video on this, but now am good!
I've changed multiple flights to avoid it. It's not worth the even minor risk.
9:50 IF and when we reach our cruising altitude🤣
I did not notice that! 😳🤣🤣
This is honestly such an upgrade and I love it. I am hoping that I will be able to fly their 737 max 8. I have never flown southwest airlines so I am hoping I get this experience.
There a nice airline flown with them many times best crew service and their Wi-Fi is great
Just flew southwest on 4 planes to and from DC. Our last plane was supposed to be a max 8 but was substituted for a 800 for mechanical reasons.
Im flying on one of these bad boys tomorrow from SBA to LAS.
I been on the Max 8 twice this year. July Dallas to Houston in 30 min, last week Denver to Houston.
7:20 N8726H, the first (and only) SWA max i've seen all the way back in the pre-grounding days.
To answer your question: yes I would feel comfortable flying on a max. It is in my opinion the prettiest airplane in the skies right now, before it’s grounding I described it as a “mini-Dreamliner” primarily because of its massive engines. And considering that Boeing spent 2 years mending the issues and pilots have nothing but good things to say about it... yes I’d get on one.
Well congrats on getting the 787 a ticket from faa
thankfully you didn't crash
I liked how the F/A waived seeing you video the cabin. :)
Why do the airlines seem to do the preflight welcome announcement before most of the passengers have boarded? PS - Love the napkins and pretty day to fly.
Not trying to defend Boeing, but do you think the media underreported how pilot error was also a major factor in those 2 Max crashes? If this plane was so flawed as the media said why wasn’t there many more crashes before the Indonesian crash? The Max had hundreds of thousands flight hours before the first crash.
Not trying to hate on Boeing but didn’t they essentially lack the proper training ?
They did @Alberto Negrete, which indicates that there is nothing fundamentally wrong with the design of the MAX.
Baltimore is such an underrated city
I would respectfully disagree.
Fuck Baltimore
I got some of the best crabs I've ever had in my life in Baltimore. The ones you can get to eat there are pretty good too!
The only thing underrated about baltimore is the airport
@@Dweller415 you got the ravens crabs and a great airport
7:50 That Leap-1B sound tho! Love it!
Early gang
Seats look rock hard.
Boy I miss travelling. BTW, what do you film with? Great resolution.
I absolutely LOVE the SWA seats on their newer cabins. I would much rather fly economy with SWA than any other US Domestic airline. I think the personal electronic device holder on the seatbacks of each seat on some of the AA seats is an ingenious way to let people mount their phones, etc for viewing content from their respective inflight entertainment apps, but .. the seats and general interior of the new SWA product is great. I also enjoy the traditional recline instead of the tricky pivoting seats.
They only have economy
They should order the Max 9 and 10’s for the Hawaii routes
I'm flying this June, I hope it's a WN B38M! Last time I flew WN, it was on N701GS - their oldest 737ng, I was low-key ready for rapid decompression 😅😅
I did fly on an Air Canada MAX one month before the grounding happened!
5:30 southwest has done boarding music on the MAX since the vey fist MAX flight.
I just got upgraded from a Southwest Boeing 737-800 to a Boeing 737 Max for my flight from CMH to MCO tomorrow morning
Is AS the only MAX with life vests in the overhead? I don't recall seeing it on the AA Max-8 or the WN. The Southwest seats look comfy, but def points off for no USB. WN, B6 and AS all have amazing cabin crews. Another good video, Emilio!
I heard Happier by Bastille being played as boarding music.
@iTripReport when allegiant starts operating the max it'll be my first time flying on one
Great to see the MAX back flying at SWA. Those LEAP1B's sure are quiet!
15:50
This is a great video!
It's a huge achievement that MCAS got fixed
Looking forward to flights SMF to SAN
I have only been on AA’s Max and that was before they got grounded.
I think Southwest is moving slow with the repaints to have a variety in their liveries. Maybe I'm wrong but that sounds like the only reason. Nice video!
I flew mco-den-mco today lol I'm in the mco hyatt tonight
Hey, you should check out the new A321 from Viva Aerobus. Come back to Mexico!
Yea, lately this past August, I’ve flown in Southwest Airlines, to Minneapolis from New York, and it was a fantastic experience because they had open seats onboard, where I can sit anywhere I want to sit. You won’t get such experience in any other airline, to be honest.
