Just had my first MAX flights SEA-EWR and return.

SEA-EWR (AS8, 4/17) was in 17D and man I agree on the seat. Very hard. Tons of leg room (I'm 6'4). Major disappointment on that flight though was lack of Wi-Fi - told that the plane was too new and had not yet been equipped (though they did have entertainment). Only bonus was an empty middle between my daughter and I.

EWR-SEA yesterday (AS 791, 4/19) was in premium (7F) and quite comfortable and quiet. And, the Wi-Fi was on. The FA joked with me that she wouldn't fly if they didn't have Wi-Fi. (OT: the cost was only $8 for this flight; I'm used to these transcons being closer to 20 - did that recently change? Plus with the AS Visa card, even cheaper....)
