🕗 2 minutes | August 18, 2026
We have completed the delivery of all thirteen Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft on order.
The MAX Family Is Complete. Welcome Home!
The first Boeing 737 MAX 8 featuring the new cabin, bearing the registration SP-LYA, arrived in Warsaw ahead of Christmas 2025.
Since then, new aircraft have been steadily joining our fleet, with the last one, SP-LYM, landing at Warsaw Chopin Airport on 7 August, marking the completion of deliveries of all the new aircraft. With the addition of the thirteen ordered MAX aircraft, our fleet now consists of 31 aircraft of this type.
The Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft began their journey at the factory in Seattle before making a short technical and refuelling stop in Keflavik and continuing on to their new home.

An Interior That Redefines the Comfort of Air Travel
The new cabin, dominated by shades of copper, amber and navy blue, is inspired by the Polish landscape and LOT’s brand colours.
In addition to the new cabin design, the aircraft are fitted with seats manufactured in Poland by RECARO, and offer amenities such as:
- headrests adjustable in six different positions,
- holders for mobile devices,
- USB-C ports,
- larger overhead compartments for carry-on baggage.
“As Poland’s national carrier, we consistently shape the travel experience to reflect the very best of Poland. The design of our aircraft cabins, just like our airport spaces, draws inspiration from the Polish landscape and aesthetic. The colour palette – deep blues and warm amber accents – creates a sense of calm, while the thoughtful use of lighting supports relaxation and comfort. The new interior design is not merely an aesthetic change, but part of a consistent strategy aimed at providing passengers with an exceptional travel experience. We invite you to discover the comfort of travelling with LOT Polish Airlines.”
– Izabela Leszczyńska, Director of Product Development and Customer Experience at LOT Polish Airlines

The Boeing 737 MAX 8 combines the latest design solutions with technology proven on Dreamliner aircraft. As a result, its new engines are quieter and more efficient – giving the Boeing 737 MAX 8 a longer range and making it more environmentally friendly. The MAX also offers improved aerodynamics compared with its predecessors. Its ultra-modern wings, featuring distinctive winglets (so-called V-shaped winglets), reduce drag and generate greater lift. As a result, the Boeing 737 MAX 8 uses less fuel and emits less CO2.
