N408AN

This airframe, registered as N408AN, is an Airbus A321-253NX manufactured by Airbus S.A.S. in 2019 with manufacturer serial number 9083. The aircraft is owned by American Airlines, Inc., a corporation based in Fort Worth, TX, US, and is registered in the US. Valued at approximately $60,000,000, this A321-253NX represents a late-2010s narrowbody build with ownership and operational ties to a major U.S. network carrier based at Fort Worth. Notable registry actions and any prior ownership changes are not published.

The cabin for this specific airframe is configured C20 / Y176 (20 business, 176 economy), supporting a 20-seat business class and 176-seat economy layout for a total of 196 passenger seats. Avionics fit and specific onboard amenity packages for N408AN are not published, though the aircraft's configuration and seating density indicate a mainline short- to medium-haul network role. With a ferry range of 4,000 nm and a cruise speed of 473 kts, this airframe is suitable for transcontinental U.S. service and medium-haul international sectors operated from the owner’s Fort Worth base. Maintenance considerations follow standard Airbus A321neo-series protocols for LEAP-1A-powered airframes; specific maintenance records for this serial 9083 are not published.

The Airbus A321-253NX is part of the A320neo family, positioned to deliver improved fuel efficiency and range relative to previous A321ceo variants, enabled here by two CFM International LEAP-1A33 engines producing 32,160 lbf each. With a 4,000 nm range and a 39,000 ft ceiling, this configuration addresses the performance niche between single-aisle short-haul workhorses and longer narrowbody transcontinental aircraft, directly competing with higher-capacity variants of the Boeing 737 MAX family. For buyers and operators, considerations include aftermarket demand for high-density narrowbody layouts like C20 / Y176, LEAP engine maintenance cycles, and residual value dynamics reflected in the approximately $60,000,000 valuation for this 2019-built airframe.
