2017 Airbus A320-251N

N308FR, an Airbus A320-251N with serial number 7538, was delivered to Frontier Airlines on April 6, 2017, flying from Hamburg to Goose Bay to Tampa after wearing the test registration D-AVVY, and carries the nickname "Flo the Flamingo." It followed Frontier's first A320neo delivery in October 2016, which had made the airline the second US operator of the type. The jet has been held in trust by Bank of Utah since 2024, following earlier years registered to Wells Fargo Trust Co as trustee. Recent flight activity shows a long stretch on the ground at KMCO, now past 182 days as of this writing. That idle period overlaps with Frontier's announced plan, disclosed in February 2026, to return 24 Airbus A320neo aircraft early to lessor AerCap Holdings as part of what the airline's leadership called a disciplined right-sizing of its fleet, though no source yet names N308FR specifically as part of that group.

Livery guess: Frontier Airlines - "Flo the Flamingo" livery. Named and delivered to Frontier Airlines per the 2017 delivery snippet, which also gives the aircraft's nickname
