Panamanian Airlines Copa has a new aircraft type in its fleet: the 737 Max 8. The South American carrier already operates the 737 Max 9, but having the smaller variant in its portfolio will give the carrier added flexibility to operate in markets with slightly less demand than its extended sibling.
According to Airlinegeeks, Copa Airlines has delivered its first Boeing 737-8 aircraft after several months of production delays. This addition to the Panama-based airline’s fleet is a significant milestone, considering it currently operates Boeing 737-700s, 737-800s, and 737-9s.
Initially, the airline had planned to commence the commercial operation of the new aircraft this month. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, deploying the smallest 737 MAX variant within Copa’s network has been rescheduled to commence on September 2, 2024.
According to Aeroroutes, Copa Airlines has made further adjustments to its scheduled service debut of the Boeing 737 MAX 8. It is now set to commence from 15AUG24, approximately six weeks later than the original plan.
