Having flown with MON on one of their old A320's recently and regularly flying in the back of brand new 737's with sky interior at flydubai, My opinion is the 737 cabin is better - are airbus bringing a new interior to the NEO?
The MAX 9 (on paper) is as close to a 757-200 replacement that you are going to get and a lot of charter companies have been waiting for one, it's not a surprise MON are looking at it.
Whatever the order is it will be the next decade before MAX's in MON colours start showing up as the backlog is pretty high now and boeing have not even finished the production building. Maybe some 737NG's offered to bridge the gap? As MON have only just taken delivery of some new buses maybe the 7+ year wait suits them anyway
