Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N652FR, is an Airbus A321-271NX (A321neo) completed in 2024 with manufacturer serial number 11987. The certificate of ownership lists BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE (a corporation based in Salt Lake City, UT, US) as the registered owner, and the aircraft carries a United States registration (US).

The cabin of this specific A321neo is fitted in a high-density single-class layout, described as a Frontier Y240-type arrangement, accommodating approximately 240 passengers in a single-class economy configuration optimized for short- to medium-haul sectors. The flight deck is the Airbus digital fly-by-wire glass cockpit, supporting modern avionics workflows and standard A320-family type ratings for flight crews. Typical mission profiles for this configuration emphasize high-capacity, short- to medium-range point-to-point routes within a roughly 3,500 nm operational radius at cruise speeds near 450 kts, suitable for dense domestic schedules or thin international sectors. Maintenance considerations for this airframe follow A321neo fleet practices focusing on geared turbofan engine support for the PW1133G-JM and line maintenance tailored to high-utilization, single-class operators.
The Airbus A321-271NX (A321neo) sits in the single-aisle, high-capacity niche of the A320neo family, offering improved fuel efficiency and range compared with legacy A321ceo types. With a ceiling of 39,800 ft and long-range capability to 3,500 nm, it competes with high-capacity variants of the Boeing 737 MAX family in airline fleets seeking dense seating and long stage lengths. Buyer demand typically favors operators pursuing lower seat-mile costs and commonality across A320-family type ratings; resale and maintenance considerations center on engine program support for the IAE PW1133G-JM and the market appetite for high-density, single-class aircraft.
