Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N343FR, is an Airbus-built A320neo variant delivered in 2018 with manufacturer serial number 8580.

The airframe is outfitted in a high-density single-class cabin consistent with an operator-standard A320neo layout of approximately 180 seats, optimized for short- to medium-haul high-capacity operations. Avionics fit and specific operator configuration details are Not published; however, the combination of a 3,400 nm range and 450 kt cruise speed supports domestic and transcontinental missions within U.S. registry operations. Powered by twin CFM International LEAP-1A26 engines, the aircraft follows the maintenance and operational profiles typical for LEAP-equipped A320neos, with attention to new-engine program support and scheduled shop visits. Unique amenities and aircraft-specific maintenance records are Not published.
As an Airbus A320-251N (A320neo family) airframe, this example occupies the high-density single-aisle, short- to medium-range market niche, combining enhanced fuel efficiency from LEAP engines with a 180-seat layout for maximum revenue density. Typical competitors in airline fleet planning fill similar roles in dense short-haul markets. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe center on LEAP-1A engine support, the A320neo commonality with existing A320 family fleets, and the aircraft’s 2018 build year and serial status when assessing remaining economic service life.
