The Boeing 737 MAX 8-200 is a high-density, sub-variant of the standard MAX 8 engineered specifically for ultra-low-cost carriers to maximize short-haul passenger capacity and efficiency. Powered by twin CFM International LEAP-1B engines, this aircraft accommodates up to 210 passengers in a tight single-class layout—such as Ryanair's 197-seat "Gamechanger" configuration—while delivering 5% lower operating costs and a 3,500-nautical-mile range. To legally comply with safety evacuation rules for higher occupant loads, Boeing fitted an extra pair of mid-exit doors behind the wings and reclaimed cabin space by using slimline seats with a 28-inch pitch, removing three galley trolleys, and installing smaller aft toilets.
