Flight radar is your friend.
Just type the route and dates you flew and you can find out.

I think Ryanair stand out due to the age of their fleet. I've flown on their aircraft recently and it was just a few months old and NK53 mentioned above about flying on new stuff.

Not sure we could say the same about any of Jet 2's fleet.

They are getting newer 738s in all due to them.

I have to say, I've hopped the pond in a 2-month old BA 77W before and flown back on a 744 that is nearly the same age as me. For some reason it was comforting knowing it had done that many long haul trips over the years! 

With FR - I think it's more a case of pilot workload and the fact they've had some near fuel starvation issues that worries me more than anything.

Forgot to reply to this at the time.

In the last few months, I've flown quite a bit.
A 15 year old BA 320 was the oldest - but didnt look it internally.
A 5 year old Ryanair 737, was the same state internally as a 12 year old Ryanair 737.

Externally, they all looked in a similar condition.

Without going in to too much detail, I have done quite a bit of work with an organisation who have aircraft a lot older than those mentioned above.

I have watched with interest as they tidy up the airframe with one type (particularly around toilet areas). Gutted inside and out.
Thats all well and good, but the engine replacement was the one that interested me the most. Even if they were re-conditioned ones that were being fitted.
An aircraft can pass all sorts of tests, but its the engine age/condition that I often think about.

Yes but the only change to the passenger is the Sky Interior-otherwise it's the same!
