Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N626FR, is an Airbus A321-271NX built in 2023 with manufacturer serial number 11552. The aircraft is owned by BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE, a corporate trustee located in Salt Lake City, UT, US, and is registered in the US registry. Its configuration is a high-density single-class layout used in a Frontier carrier configuration, and the trustee ownership marks its role in lease/asset-management arrangements rather than direct airline operation. Valuation and public condition details are not published, though the recent build year indicates it is a current-production, low-cycle example within the A321neo family.
This specific A321-271NX carries a high-density single-class cabin of 246 seats, reflecting a low-cost carrier-style interior optimized for maximum seat count; the data notes a Frontier carrier configuration. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include medium- to long-range narrowbody services up to 3,500 nm and high-frequency short- to medium-haul rotations operated from hubs or focus cities. Avionics and systems are those standard for the A321neo/271NX subvariant (recent-production digital flightdeck and common Airbus type-rated systems), supporting cruise at approximately 473 kts and ceiling operations to 39,800 ft. Maintenance considerations for this airframe align with newer geared turbofan engine programs and lease-return inspection standards under trustee ownership.
The Airbus A321-271NX is positioned in the single-aisle, high-capacity market as a member of the A320neo family, offering extended range and improved fuel efficiency courtesy of the IAE PW1100G family engines. With a 246-seat, high-density fit, this airframe targets low-cost carriers and high-demand trunk routes where per-seat economics are prioritized; it competes with high-density variants of the Boeing 737 MAX family and other A321neo configurations. Buyer and lessor demand typically favors late-model airframes like this 2023 build for their lower remaining maintenance exposure and enhanced commonality with existing A320neo fleets; resale and lease considerations will focus on cycle count, cabin condition, and lease-end return requirements under trustee-held ownership.
