Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N615FR, is an Airbus-built narrow-body delivered in 2023 with manufacturer serial number 11280. The airframe is part of the A321neo family and is recorded in US registry under corporate ownership by BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE of Salt Lake City, UT. The aircraft appears as an asset held by a financial trustee rather than an operating airline, and its US registration reflects that status. Valuation records list the airframe at $60,000,000, consistent with a late-production, high-density configuration and recent manufacture.
The aircraft is outfitted in a high-density single-class airline layout with 246 seats configured for maximum capacity, intended primarily for dense short- to medium-haul services. Avionics and airline-specific fit details are not published for this specific registration; however, the airframe’s specification supports transcontinental missions up to its 4,000 nm range at typical cruise of 470 kts. As a trustee-owned asset, the aircraft may be placed on lease to operators or held pending remarketing rather than being directly operated from a fixed home base; operator and base details are not published. Maintenance considerations for this airframe center on its twin PW1133GA-JM powerplants and the heavy-utilization profile implied by a 246-seat high-density cabin, which can influence line maintenance and overhaul scheduling.
As an Airbus A321-271NX airframe produced in 2023, this aircraft sits in the A320neo family niche balancing capacity and range for single-aisle operations. It competes with similar high-capacity variants from both Airbus and Boeing narrow-body offerings and serves carriers seeking high-density seat-mile economics. Buyer and lease demand for late-build A321neos remains strong, but resale and remarketing must account for configuration specifics (such as the 246-seat layout) and the ongoing maintenance status tied to its PW1133GA-JM engines and trustee ownership.
