This 732 was originally delivered to CAAC in February 1983 as B-2501 and it went on to have periods with China Southern and Xiamen before joining Ukraine International in January 1995. The plane is pictured taxying in after arriving from Kies (KBP) and at this time the airline experimented with many variations in the title font and size, as well as the colour and placement of the registration letters. In August 2002 the plane was returned to the lessor until being placed the following March with Batavia Air as PK-YTD. It was stored at Jakarta (CGK) in July 2007 and subsequently scrapped.

This 757 was originally delivered to Odyssey International in February 1989 as C-GAWB and it went on to fly with Nationair (as C-GAWB & C-GNXI) and Air Transat (as C-GTSK) in Canada. In November 1995 it joined Leisure Air as N240LA and then Transaero as EI-CLM in March 1995. The plane was re-registered N701LF in December 1997 before joining Flying Colours, JMC Airlines and Thomas Cook (all in the UK as G-FCLG). In April 2010 the plane underwent freighter conversion and then joined FedEx as N914FD, with which it is still active.
