N318NV

The airframe bearing tail number N318NV is an Airbus A319-111 built in 2005 with manufacturer serial number 2492. The airframe is owned and operated by the Las Vegas–based corporation Allegiant Air, registered in the US, and typically operated from the carrier’s Nevada base. The record indicates no additional owners in the supplied data; registration actions reflect US civil registry status and the airframe is aligned with Allegiant’s high-utilization, low-cost operation model. Specific valuation figures or detailed condition reports were not published in the provided data.

This particular A319 is configured in a high-density single-class cabin for Allegiant operations with approximately 156 economy seats, reflecting the carrier’s point-to-point leisure network strategy. Typical mission profiles for the airframe emphasize short- to medium-haul sectors within the continental United States and nearby international destinations, where its 3,700 nm range and 470 kt cruise speed provide operational flexibility. Avionics and specific in-service modifications are not detailed in the supplied dataset; maintenance considerations follow the standard Airbus A319 multi-engine fixed-wing programme, with operator-specific heavy checks and regional base maintenance performed according to Allegiant’s schedules. No unique cabin amenities beyond the high-density configuration were specified.

The Airbus A319-111 variant represented by N318NV occupies the short- to medium-range single-aisle market niche, offering lower trip costs relative to larger family members while retaining commonality across the A320 family. Its two CFM56-5B5/P engines producing 22,000 lbf each deliver a balance of efficiency and reliability against competing narrowbodies of its era. Market demand for this model typically comes from low-cost carriers and charter operators seeking dense seating layouts and simplified fleet logistics; resale and maintenance considerations focus on airframe hours, shop visit status, and compatibility with A320 family spares pooling.
