Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N131NN, is an Airbus-built Airbus A321-231 completed in 2015 with manufacturer serial number 6472. The aircraft is held by the corporate lessor BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE, located in Salt Lake City, UT, US, and is registered in the US. Ownership by a trust-backed corporate entity reflects common financing and asset-management practices for narrow-body airliners. The airframe’s estimated market valuation is $43,000,000, a figure indicative of late-model A321 airframes in serviceable condition.

The installed cabin configuration for this airframe is listed as C20Y170 (20 Business, 170 Economy — two-class 190-seat layout), supporting high-density two-class operations typical of short‑to‑medium-haul scheduled or charter services. With a maximum cruise of 440 kts and a range of 2,907 nm, the aircraft is suited to domestic and transcontinental missions within the continental United States and nearby international sectors. Registered in the US and owned by a Salt Lake City–based corporate trustee, this airframe is likely managed under lease or trust arrangements that centralize maintenance tracking and records. No specific avionics or unique cabin amenity modifications have been published for this serial.

The Airbus A321-231 is a member of the A320 family, occupying the higher-capacity end of single-aisle narrow-body jets with a typical two‑class seating near 190 passengers for dense short‑haul networks. Competitors in this performance niche include stretched variants of other narrow‑body types offering similar capacity and range. Buyer and charter demand for late‑model A321s remains robust due to commonality with A320 family fleets and favorable seat-mile economics. From a maintenance and resale perspective, a 2015-built airframe with IAE V2533‑A5 engines and a clean trust-backed ownership record tends to retain value, but market pricing reflects engine maintenance status, remaining shop visit intervals, and airframe utilization.
