Model & Market Context
The airframe is registered as N638FR, an Airbus A321-271NX completed in 2023 with manufacturer serial number 11749. Ownership is held by Frontier Airlines, an airline/corporation based in the United States, and the certificate of registry is issued under US jurisdiction. The aircraft is classified as a fixed-wing multi-engine type. Valuation and detailed condition reports for this specific airframe are not published.
Cabin configuration and seating counts for this particular aircraft are not published; typical in-service fit will be determined by Frontier Airlines’ internal fleet specifications. The airframe’s advertised operational reach of 4,000 nm and service ceiling of 41,000 ft position it for medium- to longer-range single-aisle missions under the operating plan of Frontier Airlines, which is based in the United States. Avionics fit and in-service maintenance status for this airframe are not published. Routine line and base maintenance follow standard manufacturer and operator procedures appropriate to an Airbus-built airframe of this vintage.
The Airbus A321-271NX designation identifies this airframe within Airbus’s A321 family as a high-capacity, long-range single-aisle derivative produced by Airbus. With a certified range of 4,000 nm and a maximum operating altitude of 41,000 ft, this 2023-built unit (s/n 11749) represents a late-production example attractive to network carriers focusing on extended single-aisle sectors; its ownership by Frontier Airlines reflects operator demand in the North American market. As a modern 2023 manufacture, considerations for maintenance planning and resale will align with contemporary Airbus service bulletins, continuity of operator heavy-maintenance programs, and the aircraft’s US registration and operator support infrastructure.
