Airframe story
N349FR is an Airbus A320-251N, serial number 8766, built in 2019. It entered the FAA registry under a UMB Bank NA trustee arrangement from 2019, a structure typical of leased airliners rather than direct airline ownership. Over the observed year it logged 1,275 flights and 2,329.4 hours, moving through Orlando, Denver, Raleigh-Durham, Birmingham, and Phoenix before settling into an ongoing stay at Tampa that has lasted 19 days so far. It belongs to a cohort of 109 A320-251N airframes in US records, 106 still registered, with most sitting under Bank of Utah Trustee or Wilmington Trust Co Trustee arrangements; sister ships N347FR and N350FR remain registered under similar trustee structures, while N305FR, N7581, and N576AE have already left the registry. Frontier has aggressively renewed its fleet with new Airbus A320neo, A321, and A321neo aircraft as part of its broader growth strategy.
