As the new MacBook still uses the AirPort Extreme there should be a solution?

Perhaps you want there to be a solution, but that doesn't mean that there is a solution.

"AirPort Extreme" isn't a particular device; it's a name that I think was, at one point, used for some 802.11 adapters in Mac notebooks, as well as for later Apple base stations. Apple no longer use that name.

I will update the Wiki to indicate that newer AirPort adapters do not appear to be capable of capturing traffic while associated to a network.

Note, by the way, that the Wireshark Wiki has moved; it's no longer at wiki.wireshark.org, it's now on Wireshark's GitLab site. The page section Amato_C referred to is now at https://gitlab.com/wireshark/wireshark/-/wikis/CaptureSetup/WLAN#monitor-mode.
