Southwest Airlines welcomes its first Boeing MAX 8 designed by tangerine 

 

Southwest Airlines marks an important milestone as it welcomes its first Boeing MAX 8 — featuring a newly designed cabin by tangerine

We partnered with Southwest to reimagine the onboard experience, giving Customers more choice and elevating comfort across every journey.

The cabin introduces all-new RECARO Aircraft Seating, available in two sun-ray CMF expressions — a signature blue and a vibrant sky-blue accent that distinguishes Extra Legroom seating.

Guided by extensive Customer and Employee research, our design focuses on colour, comfort, and emotional wellbeing. The design connects seamlessly to Southwest’s brand heritage while bringing a fresh, modern feel to the cabin.

The result? A warm, welcoming, and distinctly Southwest environment — crafted for today’s traveller and the journeys ahead.
