N281NV

This airframe, registered as N281NV, is an Airbus A320-214 built in 2012 with manufacturer serial number 5381. The airframe is owned by Dustland LLC, a Las Vegas, Nevada–based limited liability company; the current recorded owner is Dustland LLC (Las Vegas, NV, US). It is U.S.-registered and configured for high-density single-class operations consistent with Allegiant-style service. There are no additional public records of notable registry actions or previous operators beyond the recorded ownership and U.S. registration in the supplied data.

The aircraft carries a high-density single-class (all‑economy) cabin configured for Allegiant operations with approximately 182 seats, optimized for short- to medium-haul leisure routes. The interior layout emphasizes capacity over premium amenities, reflecting a mission profile of densely seated point-to-point scheduled or charter services. As a fuel- and cost-efficient narrowbody, typical deployments would be domestic U.S. trunk and secondary routes within the aircraft’s 3,300 nm range and cruising at about 447 kts. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe follow A320-class norms with the twin CFM56-5B4/P engines, each rated at 27,000 lbf, and routine checks scaled to a high-utilization, high-density passenger role.

The Airbus A320-214 sits in the single-aisle, short- to medium-range market niche, offering a blend of passenger capacity and operating economy that competes with later variants of the Boeing 737 family. Demand from carriers and charter operators for high-density-configured A320s remains strong for leisure and low-cost operations due to their seating flexibility and established support network. Maintenance and resale considerations for this 2012-build airframe center on engine maintenance cycles for the CFM56-5B4/P, airframe shop visits tied to high-utilization interiors, and market appetite for retrofit or continued high-density use.
