Another way I'd see the MAX 8 helping AS out is on those longer transcons with lower demand, such as JAX and ORF which come to mind. According to numbers they're some of the biggest unserved nonstop markets from SEA, and the MAX 8 could help make these routes a lot more economically viable. While being able to expand to new out of range markets, I see these longer but thinner US routes as much more likely
