B37M
In Production
The 737 MAX 7 anchors the small end of Boeing's MAX family, developed to replace the 737-700 and first flown in 2018. Two CFM LEAP-1B engines seat 138 in typical service and up to 172, ranging about 7,130 km at roughly 842 km/h. It measures 35.56 metres long on a 35.92-metre wing and grosses up to 80,286 kg. The LEAP engines and split-tip winglets sharpen fuel efficiency by as much as 18% over the Next Generation series. The jet stands 12.30 metres tall and offers about 22.2 cubic metres of underfloor hold volume, useful on the short-to-medium routes it serves. Its ICAO code is B37M.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Boeing 737 MAX 7 is designed to seat approximately 138 passengers in a two-class configuration. In a single-class high-density layout, it can carry up to 172 passengers. It is the smallest member of the 737 MAX family, intended as the replacement for the Boeing 737-700.
The Boeing 737 MAX 7 is expected to have a maximum range of approximately 7,130 km (3,850 nautical miles). This represents a significant range improvement over the 737-700's 6,230 km, enabled by the fuel-efficient CFM LEAP-1B engines and split-tip winglets. The extended range could open new direct routes for airlines operating thinner markets.
The MAX 7 and A220-300 target a similar market segment with comparable passenger capacity (138 vs 130 seats in two-class). The MAX 7 has a longer range at 7,130 km versus 5,920 km and offers fleet commonality with other 737 MAX variants. However, the A220-300 has a wider cabin with a 2-3 layout and no middle seat issue, and its newer airframe design delivers better per-seat fuel efficiency.
The 737 MAX 7 shares the MAX family's distinctive split-tip winglets and LEAP-1B engines with serrated nacelles. It is the shortest MAX variant at approximately 35.6 m, making it look compact compared to the MAX 8 or MAX 9. The shorter fuselage is the primary visual differentiator from its larger MAX siblings.
The Boeing 737 MAX 7 has faced significant certification delays, initially expected to enter service in 2019. The global 737 MAX grounding from 2019-2020 and subsequent regulatory changes have pushed back its certification timeline repeatedly. Southwest Airlines is the largest customer, having placed orders intended to replace its aging 737-700 fleet. The aircraft must meet updated FAA certification requirements that were tightened after the MAX accidents.
