N272AY

This airframe, registered as N272AY, is an Airbus A330-323 built in 2000 with manufacturer serial number 333. The airframe is owned by AERSALE INC, a corporation based in Coral Gables, FL, US, and bears a United States registration. The aircraft’s registry history highlights its status as a US-registered widebody, and maintenance and valuation notes are tied to its high-density interior and age in service. As a single-airframe summary, its configuration and ownership by a trading and leasing company are central to its commercial and remarketing profile.

The subject airframe is outfitted in an airline high-density layout reported at approximately 379 seats, indicating a configuration focused on maximum passenger capacity rather than premium amenities. Typical missions for this configuration would include high-capacity medium- to long-haul scheduled or charter services where range up to 6,350 nm and cruise at 470 kts are operationally useful. The two Pratt & Whitney PW4168A turbofans provide the installed thrust rating of 70,000 lbf each, relevant for performance planning and maintenance scheduling. Based in the United States with ownership recorded in Coral Gables, Florida, its operational considerations include high-cycle wear associated with dense seating plans and the inspection regimes appropriate for early-2000s A330 airframes.

The Airbus A330-323 is part of the A330 family that occupies the medium- to long-range widebody niche, offering a balance of capacity and range against competing types. In a high-density 379-seat layout, it competes with high-capacity variants of competing widebodies for charter and inclusive tour markets where seat-mile economics dominate. Buyers and lessees consider factors such as engine type—here the PW4168A—airframe age (built 2000, S/N 333), and cabin density when assessing maintenance reserves and resale value. Resale and remarketing of this specific airframe are influenced by its US registration (N272AY), corporate ownership, and configuration optimized for high-capacity operations.
