SMBC Aviation Capital has made waves at the Farnborough International Airshow 2026 with an order for 100 examples of the Boeing 737 MAX 10. The lessor has primarily committed to the stretched 737 MAX 10 model, with this variant making up 60 of the 100 firm orders. This represents the largest single order by a lessor for Boeing’s biggest model from its next-generation narrowbody twinjet series.
The remaining 40 aircraft in this order are examples of the popular Boeing 737 MAX 8 variant. All in all, today’s deal sees SMBC’s 737 MAX portfolio, in combined terms of owned, managed, and committed aircraft, grow to an impressive total of 450 jets. The lessor highlighted the 737 MAX 10’s strong per-seat economics as a key pull factor, alongside strong market demand for larger aircraft.
