N106DN 2020 Airbus A321-211

Overview

This entry describes airframe tail number N106DN, an Airbus-built narrow-body designated Airbus A321-211 (A321-200), manufacturer Airbus SE, completed in 2020 with manufacturer serial number 10088. The airframe is owned by Delta Air Lines, Inc., a corporation based in the United States, and carries a US civil registration.

Operations & Cabin

The cabin for this specific aircraft is configured as C20Y171, with approximately 20 premium/business seats and 171 economy seats for a total of 191 passenger positions; this layout supports dense single-aisle operations on trunk and transcontinental sectors. Propulsion is provided by twin CFM56-5B (CFM International) turbofan engines, aligning the airframe with common-operator maintenance, spares pooling, and line-replaceable unit practices for this engine family. With a published range of 3,200 nm and an economic cruise of 477 kts, the airframe is typically deployed on medium-range scheduled routes from Delta’s U.S. operating bases, balancing block-hour productivity against cabin density.

Model & Market Context

As an example of the Airbus A321-211 (A321-200) subvariant produced by Airbus SE, serial 10088 occupies the performance niche of high-capacity single-aisle aircraft with a certified ceiling of 39,000 ft, a cruise speed of 477 kts, and a mission radius consistent with 3,200 nm range operations. Resale and long-term market considerations center on airframe condition, remaining structural/engine life, and continued demand for dense single-aisle capacity in the U.S. market.
