Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N706FR is an Airbus-built narrow-body delivered in 2015 with manufacturer serial number 6926. It is an Airbus A321-211 registered in the US and operated by Frontier Airlines, a United States-based corporation; the type has remained with the same operator for its in-service life according to the supplied record. The airframe’s ownership and operational identity reflect typical mainline use by a low-cost carrier, and it carries a high-density single-class cabin configuration tailored to Frontier’s fleet philosophy. There are no additional registry actions or changes of corporate ownership noted in the provided data.
This specific A321, N706FR, is outfitted in a high-density single-class configuration described as Y230 with a 3-3 economy layout seating 230 passengers, a layout optimized for maximum revenue seat count on short- to medium-haul routes. Typical mission profiles for the airframe include domestic and transcontinental low-cost carrier sectors that make use of its 3,213 nm ferry range and cruise speed near 447 knots to maximize utilization and quick turnaround. Avionics and systems fitment are consistent with the A321-211 production standard; maintenance considerations for this airframe focus on CFM56-5B6 engine support and line maintenance cycles that align with a high-utilization schedule. The operator base is represented by Frontier Airlines in the United States, where fleet commonality and rapid fleet rotations are operational priorities.
The Airbus A321-211 occupies the single-aisle, higher-capacity segment of the A320 family, offering airlines a balance of seat density and range for domestic and longer thin routes. Competing models in the market include stretched narrowbodies with similar mission capability, and demand typically centers on carriers seeking seat-mile efficiency. Maintenance and resale considerations for this serial—built in 2015—benefit from relatively young calendar age, widely supported CFM56 engine spares networks, and continued aftermarket demand for high-density A321s among low-cost operators and charter carriers.
