I wish I would have taken a picture of the safety cards for proof. All MAX aircraft are grounded by the FAA. While some planes are being flown empty to storage areas, there are absolutely no flights with passengers taking place. The confusion most likely comes from, as was mentioned earlier, the similar names of the aircraft. A 737-800 is not a 737-MAX8. Also, because the interior configurations are similar, Southwest uses the same safety information card for both 737-800 and 737-MAX8 aircraft. On the front of that card it identifies both in big blue type. but you were definitely, absolutely, positively not flying on a MAX aircraft. 😉 Here's some great info from Southwest (including a pic of the safety card).
