I was planning to re-scan this negative but I'm unable to find it 17-Nov-24.

'TUI Travel' logojet operated by Germania.

First flown with the Boeing test registration N5573B, this aircraft was delivered to SAT Fluggesellschaft and leased to Germania as D-AGEP in Mar-98 in a TUI Germany special livery.

It was wet-leased to Hapag-Lloyd Express in Nov-02, HLX became TUI.com (Hapag-Lloyd Express) in Nov-06 and the lease continued until the aircraft was returned to Germania in Nov-07.

In late Nov-07 the aircraft was wet-leased to Air Berlin in full Air Berlin livery and returned to Germania in Oct-12. It was fitted with blended winglets in Mar-13 and was leased to Air Berlin again a few days later.

It returned to Germania in May-13 and continued in operation until it was withdrawn from service and stored at Berlin-Schoenfeld in Feb-19. The aircraft was moved to Kemble, UK in Apr-19 and permanently retired. It was broken up at Kemble in Jul-20.
