Samoa Airways replaces its only jetliner with a Boeing 737 MAX 9
Samoa Airways replaces the only jetliner in its fleet, a Boeing 737-800, with a brand-new Boeing 737 MAX 9. The aircraft will join the airline's fleet in March. The state-owned airline of the South Pacific country currently operates a Boeing 737-800 leased from the Italian charter operator Neos. The aircraft will be returned to the owner in March this year when the new Boeing 737 MAX 9 is delivered to the airline. (airlinerwatch.com) More...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]

Not quite sure how the new 737 MAX can "join the airline's fleet" when the fleet consists of one aircraft. I initially thought there maybe some turboprops as the article speaks of a "jetliner". Picky I know.
They also have three turboprops in their fleet:
