Model & Market Context

The aircraft with tail number N732NK is an Airbus A321-271NX built by AIRBUS S A S in 2024 with manufacturer serial number 12178. It is recorded as owned by ALC A321 52024 LLC, a Los Angeles, California limited liability company administered c/o Air Lease Corporation, and it carries a US registration. The airframe is delivered in a high-density single-class configuration aligned with Spirit Airlines layout standards and presents as a new-production A321neo variant intended for short- to medium-haul, high-capacity service. Notable registry actions include its US registration under N732NK upon delivery and placement into service in a 246-seat commercial role.

This specific airframe carries a high-density single-class cabin of 246 seats configured to Spirit Airlines specifications, optimizing seat count over premium services for short- to medium-range point-to-point markets. Avionics and systems follow the A321-271NX standard fit associated with the Pratt & Whitney PW1100G family, providing fuel-efficiency improvements and typical airline operational performance for a 4,000 nm design range and 473-knot cruise. Typical mission profiles for this installation emphasize high-frequency, high-capacity trunk and leisure routes where seat-mile economics are prioritized and turnaround efficiency is critical. Maintenance considerations reflect new-build A321neo-series practices with engine-specific support for the PW1133G-JM and scheduled checks consistent with operator fleet commonality when deployed in a large single-type operation.

The Airbus A321-271NX represented by N732NK sits within the A320neo family niche delivering increased range and seat capacity relative to older single-aisle types, targeting operators seeking high-density, lower-cost-per-seat operations. It competes with stretched narrowbodies and re-engined competitors offering similar seat counts and ranges, attracting airlines focused on dense domestic networks and transcontinental services. Buyer and lease demand for new A321neo derivatives remains strong, with resale and asset-management considerations influenced by cabin density, operator utilization, and engine support packages tied to the PW1133G-JM powerplants.
