Yes, and they already have another one, HZ-NE24, also an ex-TK as TC-LOJ, in EHWO, apparently for cabin outfit. But not the first time they have A330s flying for them, as they previously already leased some by HiFly and AirAsiaX, flying under Portugese and Malaysian registrations. This should be the first time they recieve A330s under Saudi regs. though. Many thanks for the feedback gva2ist

Retired from fleet then bought back by Airbus, I guess.

Retired from fleet then bought back by Airbus, I guess. To old for MRTT conversion, good for a P2F conversion ?

Maybe just a buy back deal as part of the new/second 15 A350s order from Air China, nothing more than that. Chinese airlines often do these buy back deals (thinking about A340-300s/-600s and some old A330s with CA/MU) with Airbus/Boeing so they don't have to worry about the old frames, otherwise they get a lot of criticism in China for retiring (half-)young fleet.

What I heard is 8 A330s from Air China will be converted to P2F version. Let's see.
