So I guess that next year when the boeing 737 Max9 comes, primera will send back the airbus to the lessor.
Primera has ordered 2 LR only. I wonder why.
Max9 - typical 2 class seating 178-193, 6570 km range
321neo - typical 2 class seating 180-190, 6900 km range
321neo LR - 7400 km range.
In other worlds, both the neo and the neo LR have range advantages on the Max9.
