N382FR

The airframe bearing tail number N382FR is an Airbus-built A320neo completed in 2021 with manufacturer serial number 10565. The airframe is owned by BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE, a corporate trustee entity based in Salt Lake City, UT, US, and is registered in the US. Configured and operated in a high-density single-class economy layout for Frontier Airlines, this specific A320-251N has served in short- to medium-haul commercial operations since delivery, with its corporate trustee ownership structure reflecting common lessor/financing arrangements in the modern narrowbody market.

The cabin of N382FR is laid out in a high-density single-class economy configuration of approximately 190 seats in the Frontier Airlines interior, optimized for maximum passenger capacity on domestic and transborder sectors. The flight deck is equipped with the Airbus A320 family digital flight deck featuring glass EFIS displays and full fly-by-wire flight controls, supporting modern airline operational practices and common pilot type ratings across the A320 family. Typical missions for this airframe include high-frequency short- to medium-haul routes where quick turnarounds and dense seating maximize revenue per flight; maintenance regimens follow A320neo-specific schedules driven by LEAP engine maintenance cycles and airframe heavy check intervals. The trustee ownership structure indicates the airframe may be subject to lease arrangements and standard registry notifications for lessor/operator changes.

The Airbus A320-251N (A320neo) occupies the single-aisle, medium-range performance niche with improved fuel efficiency from the LEAP engines and aerodynamic refinements. Competing models include updated variants of the Boeing 737 MAX family and other re-engined narrowbodies; demand remains strong among low-cost carriers and high-density operators that benefit from the A320neo’s per-seat economics. Resale and maintenance considerations for this serial include tracking LEAP-1A26 lifecycle costs, potential interior reconfiguration for different airlines, and remarketing under trustee or lessor arrangements common in the current narrowbody market.
