High-density single-class (Y186) layout indicated in operator records

Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N838SY, is a Boeing 737-86N built in 2002 with manufacturer serial number 32733. The airframe is owned by Sun Country Inc. (corporate owner) and carries a US civil registration; more detailed operator base information is not published in the supplied data. The aircraft’s provenance in public records reflects a single corporate owner entry rather than multiple transfers, and no specific notable registry actions or incidents are published. Valuation and detailed condition assessments are not published in the provided dataset.

Operator records indicate a high-density single-class cabin configured as Y186, which implies a focus on short- to medium-haul, high-capacity passenger service consistent with low-cost carrier or high-demand leisure operations. While no specific avionics fit or interior refurbishment history is published for this serial, the 737-800/-86N derivative typically carries standard Boeing flight decks for the Next Generation series, compatible with airline commonality practices. Typical mission profiles for this configuration include dense, short-to-medium range point-to-point routes where turnaround efficiency and seat-mile economics are prioritized. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe will follow 737 Next Generation scheduled checks and CFM56-7B engine program requirements; detailed maintenance status is not published.

The Boeing 737-86N belongs to the 737 Next Generation family, known for its balance of capacity, range and commonality with legacy 737 fleets. In the market, it occupies a performance niche against Airbus A320ceo-family aircraft for similar single-aisle, medium-range missions and competes on runway performance, operating costs and fleet commonality. Buyer and charter demand for high-density, single-class 186-seat layouts typically comes from leisure carriers and high-frequency short-haul operators; resale and maintenance considerations center on airframe cycles, remaining structural life and continued support for CFM56-7B engines.
