N296NV

This airframe, registered as N296NV, is an Airbus A320-214 built in 2006 with manufacturer serial number 2674. The aircraft is held by BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE, a corporation located in Salt Lake City, UT, US, and is registered in the US. The airframe is maintained in a high-density configuration for leisure operations and carries standard Airbus avionics and safety fits; valuation details are not published.

The cabin is fitted in a high-density single-class layout with 182 seats, configured for Allegiant-style leisure operations and short- to medium-haul point-to-point routes. Avionics include the Airbus A320 standard flight deck with Airbus EFIS/FCU, together with TCAS, EGPWS and ACARS for operational situational awareness and airline communications. Typical missions for this configuration prioritize high-utilization leisure sectors where seat density and short turnaround capability are critical; maintenance considerations center on keeping the CFM56-5B4/P engines and airframe systems in line with intensive short-haul cycles. The aircraft’s US registration and trustee ownership are notable for leasing and asset-management structures common to commercial narrowbodies.

The Airbus A320-214 sits within the A320 family as a narrow-body, fixed-wing multi-engine airliner optimized for short- to medium-range routes, offering a balance of fuel efficiency and airport performance for dense leisure point-to-point markets. Competing models in the same niche include later A320neo variants and competing narrowbodies from other manufacturers, though this airframe’s CFM56 powerplant and 2006 build date position it toward operators focused on proven legacy performance rather than newest fuel-burn advantages. Buyer and charter demand for high-density A320s remains tied to fleet commonality, seat-mile economics and the condition and maintenance history of airframes like N296NV, with resale considerations influenced by engine life, avionics fit and overall utilization.
