Please swap from 73G to 737-MAX8 from PHX-LAS-PHX

Please swap the aircraft from 73G to 737-800 or MAX8. Can I fly on it? My FLT#852 on Dec 1 and Dec 3 FLT#4628. I would like to fly on the new aircraft.

I'm not too hopeful with your trip being a month out (and on a short hop), but I'll cross my fingers for you, Scotty!

Please swap 737-800 MAXX airplane for SNA-LAS this Christmas because I want new planes and I also is loyal WN flyer with A list status and I also request free priority boarding for free for my entire family of 16 because I is A list elite. Thank you.

Tongue in cheek of course, as this thread is. But I bet he certainly still has friends in high places

I cringe everytime I book a flight and see "73G". They've become unbearable in my opinion with 143 seats and 2 restrooms. I don't even need a MAX, just give me a regular 738 and I'll be happy.

Drama much? "Unbearable"? Not quite.

Nope, just posting facts. Delta's 737-700's seat 124 people and have 3 restrooms. Alaska's 737-700 also seat 124 people and also have 3 restrooms. WestJet's 737-700's have only 2 restrooms but seat 130 people. An inch of legroom might not seem big but it does make a difference, along with larger overhead bins. Compared to competitors and their own 738's, the 73G's are cattle cars.

I found the Southwest 737-700 to be more comfortable than the AA A319.

Hey Guys, I found the flight from PHX-LAS by operated 737-MAX8. The flight number is 6018. Should I change the flight? Is that free of charge?
