Conversions of Airbus A321s to freighter version P2F started only recently and one of the first examples entered the fleet of Titan Airways. Interestingly, this aircraft has its new registration G-POWY still covered and uses the original G-DHJH from its times at Thomas Cook UK.
Although the wet-lease of OM-IEX to Badr Airlines finished already in November, the aircraft was temporarily stored in Lasham, it returned to Bratislava on 4 February 2021 and it still retained the tail colours of the Sudanese carrier. Today it operated regular charter to Stockholm.
