N742NK

The airframe bearing tail number N742NK is an Airbus A321-271NX built in 2025 with manufacturer serial number 12330. Ownership is held by BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE, a corporation based in Salt Lake City, UT, US, and the aircraft is registered in the United States under the registration N742NK. Entered service as a factory-new delivery to the US registry upon manufacture. The airframe is valued at $60,000,000 and is categorized as a fixed-wing multi-engine aircraft in a high-density single-class configuration.

The cabin for this specific A321-271NX is fitted in a high-density 246-seat single-class airline layout, optimized for maximum passenger capacity rather than premium amenities. Avionics fit and specific onboard systems for this airframe are not published in the supplied data. Typical mission profiles for this configuration would emphasize short- to medium-haul high-capacity routes within the aircraft’s 4,000 nm range and cruise speed of 450 kts, although exact operator routing and home base are not published. Maintenance considerations for this airframe follow standard Airbus narrowbody practice and are influenced by its high-utilization layout and corporate ownership structure under BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE.

The A321-271NX airframe is a member of Airbus’s narrowbody, high-capacity A321neo family, occupying a performance niche that balances extended range and single-aisle economics. With twin IAE PW1133GA-JM engines rated at 33,110 lbf each and a type ceiling of 39,800 ft, the model competes with other high-density narrowbodies in airline and charter markets. Buyer demand and resale considerations for this specific airframe are shaped by its 246-seat high-density cabin, US registration, and a 2025 build year that supports strong residual value relative to older types, reflected in the stated valuation of $60,000,000.
