Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing tail number N939NK is an Airbus-built narrow-body jet, a Airbus A320-271N completed in 2021 with manufacturer serial number 10450. This airliner is owned and operated by Spirit Airlines, Inc., a United States-based corporation, and carries a US registration. Registered in the United States, the aircraft is configured for high-density low-cost carrier operations; valuation and detailed condition reports are Not published.

The airframe is fitted in a high-density single-class cabin layout consistent with the operator’s fleet strategy, with operator-provided variants listing 8 'Big Front' + ~174 economy seats or equivalent high-density plan to reach a total of 182 seats. The flight deck is the Airbus A320 family glass cockpit with the standard A320 avionics suite, supporting typical short- to medium-haul route structures and high-utilization airline schedules. Operated by Spirit Airlines, Inc. from its United States bases, the aircraft is routinely deployed on dense domestic and near-international sectors where seat-mile economics and quick turnarounds are priorities. Maintenance considerations follow the A320neo/PW1100G family schedules and common-parts practices used across operator fleets.

As an A320neo-family member, the Airbus A320-271N platform targets the single-aisle medium-range market with improved fuel efficiency relative to prior A320ceo models, driven by the Pratt & Whitney PW1127G-JM geared turbofan installation. Its 3,400 nm range and 447-knot cruise speed position it competitively against contemporary single-aisle types such as later-generation Boeing 737 variants for dense short- to medium-haul networks. For buyers and lessors, considerations include the strong aftermarket demand for high-utilization low-cost carrier configurations, engine shop visit planning for GTF engines, and residual-value impacts of operator-specific high-density cabin fits.
