Simple -they are not at MTOW
Just because they have the maximum passengers on board is nowhere near MTOW. Bearing in mind these flights carry little if any cargo and minimum allowed fuel.
And even then they look as if they use every available inch of runway. They would never make it with a full cargo load as well.
