This will be interesting to see. The Boeing software I have for the MAX (not latest Flight test data, but about 2 yr old), shows a Field Limit out of PVD of 83.500 kgs (almost 5.000 kg less than MTOW) at 30°C (summer temps). This does not take into account any obstacles (dunno if PVD has any).
Assuming an OEW of 45.000kgs, 18.900 payload (189 pax w bags) for a ZFW of 63.900 kgs. This leaves 19.600 kgs for fuel. Probably doable, westbound will probably be more of an issue due winds. Also if the actual OEW is higher.
