The MAX will not be certified by EASA until the end of this year, more likely - early 2021. So, expecting the first deliveries in or after Q1 2021 would not be unreasonable. Hopefully they will all come with cargo holds loaded with COVID-19 vaccines so that they actually have enough places to fly to quite frequently and on a cash-positive basis. Until the latter becomes possible, patience is king. This more or less explains why recruitment has gone silent for now, me thinks.
