5 Best Healthcare Equipment Stocks To Watch Right Now

At one time, Southwest Airlines (NYSE: LUV  ) and its upstart peers wouldn't fly long-haul routes because it was either too difficult or unprofitable to do so. But now Boeing (NYSE: BA  ) is building the extended range 737 MAX while Airbus has the A320neo. Think of them as smaller-scale versions of the 787, says Motley Fool contributor Tim Beyers in the following video.

The extended range of both aircraft, which are expected to enter service between 2015 and 2017, makes it more likely that smaller carriers will compete for longer-haul routes such as Los Angeles to Honolulu or New York to London. And while that's no doubt good news for Boeing stock, it's bad news for legacy carriers, Tim says.

Who wins? We won't know for years, but Southwest is already the leading buyer of the MAX, and as such, seems to be a likely benefactor. There's also Alaska Airlines (NYSE: ALK  ) , which already flies from the continental west coast to various destinations in the Hawaiian Islands. The airline has ordered 37 of the planes to upgrade its fleet.
