I found this interesting tidbit near the botom of a "Spiegel" article. Evidently they had a reader call in who had flown on that very aircraft in November:

Excerpt....

According to information from a "SPIEGEL ONLINE" reader who flew with the plane in November, the Boeing didn't seem very well cared for, though. The seat backs were wobbly, everything crackled and looked almost shabby.

.....

Apparently, the plane had been taken over from an airline company in a Spanish speaking area, because in many spots there had still been messages that could be read in Spanish. However, the crew made a competent impression, and take offs and landings ran optimally, as well.
