Southwest Adds Boeing MAX in Record $19 Billion Jet Order

Southwest Airlines Co. agreed to buy 208 Boeing Co. 737 jets with a list value of $19 billion, the largest aircraft order ever and the first to include the more fuel-efficient MAX model.

The MAX accounts for 150 of the jets in the deal, which includes options for 150 more, Southwest said today. It didn’t say which MAX version it will take from a family of planes that Boeing said will range in price from $77.7 million to $101.7 million. Airlines typically negotiate discounts.
