Luxair Orders Up To Four Boeing 737 MAX 10s

On what routes would Luxair use the Max 10 and benefit from its capacity? is a long haul expansion in the cards? I find it mind boggling that airlines have any faith in the MAX (beyond the difficulties in obtaining A321s). The plane is a piece of junk.

From my experience, Luxair is a decent airline, though admittedly I wonder how exactly they are planning to "fit" all this extra capacity at LUX. Only been there twice (once arriving and once departing) so I can't say conclusively that this is always the case... but on both instances the airport was very much packed. And I mean no-free-seats-in-the-lounge packed as well as barely any sitting space at the regular airside seats.

Also, I don't really think the 737 MAX 10 opens up any new markets for Luxair (if we're talking range-wise). They'll probably deploy these to DXB (where the regular 737s already fly to in winter), but I don't think the MAX 10 could even make it to BOS nonstop bar significant weight restrictions. With the A321(X)LR it could've been a different story...

Might feel smart to do this...but when does it become a cast of caveat emptor when all the issues that comes with Boeing comes up.
I guess as long as the senior managers of Luxair don't fly on the Max, they don't care whether a plane crashes or not.

Isnt Luxair part of the LH group, which has arguably one of the worst CEO in the industry

If they retire turboprops they won’t be able to fly into London City. E195 is
too large for that.

It is not.

The 737/700 will be replaced by MAX. The newer 737/800 will remain for few yeras after the all the Max have joined the fleet. The E2 will be used on regional routes and partly replace the Q400. On longer term all the Q400 will be replaced by E2-190/195.
Luxair has expansion plans and will operate out of it's home base Luxembourg so there won't be overcapacity. Considering the MAX order, the CEO has announced that Luxair will operate longer routes with the Max. They will serve Muscat /Oman soon and with one fuel Stop you will reach many interesting destinations in Asia.
It's very likely that they will start transtatlantic flights. For this they will probably use the Max 7 with around 120-130 pax and a lie flat business class. It's the right size aircraft out of Luxembourg especially fot transatlantic routes as they have to operate daily to compete with major carriers. I think Luxair will create the surprise with it's Max fleet and use them on longer routes where actually no airline uses them. They were one of the first airline to fly the 737/800 from luxembourg to Dubai on 6h30 sector but with payload restrictions

The E195-E2 was certified for the steep approach at London City in November - https://www.embraercommercialaviation.com/news/e195-e2-lcy-steep-approach-certified/
