Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N636NK, is an Airbus A320-232 built in 2015 with manufacturer serial number 6424. It is owned by SPIRIT AIRLINES LLC, a corporation headquartered in DANIA BEACH, FL, US, and is registered in the US civil registry. The aircraft is operated in a high-density, low-cost carrier configuration consistent with Spirit Airlines’ network operations; no public record of earlier owners or major registry actions is provided. Valuation and condition highlights: Not published.

The airframe is outfitted in a high-density single-aisle layout typical of Spirit A320s, certified for 182 seats—commonly marketed as 174 economy seats plus 8 Big Front premium seats—optimized for short- to medium-haul frequent-turn operations. With two IAE V2527-A5 turbofans, the aircraft supports typical transcontinental and regional missions across the carrier’s U.S., Caribbean, and Central American network where range and turnaround economy are primary considerations. Avionics fit is standard for the A320ceo family build year, supporting required navigation, communications and surveillance capabilities for Part 121 airline operation. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe follow operator-established heavy check cycles; no unique aftermarket cabin amenities or special modifications are documented for this serial.

The Airbus A320-232 in this configuration sits in the single-aisle, medium-range short-to-medium-haul market niche, competing with comparable narrowbodies that emphasize per-seat economics. With a 3,300 nm range and cruise near 447 kts, the type is well-suited to dense point-to-point and hub-feeder missions where seat density and turn performance drive revenue. Market demand among low-cost carriers remains strong for high-density A320s, while resale and maintenance considerations reflect the typical A320ceo lifecycle—engine and airframe shop visits, component workpacks, and marketability tied to interior configuration and remaining structural checks.
