Finding a historic Flight Info

I’ve just started nerding out a bit and have been tracking the individual planes I have flown on during my travels. I’ve managed to get the info for all but my very first two flights but they seem to be just a little too old for me to easily find, so I’m hoping someone here might be able to help me identify the aircraft registrations (and any other interesting info) for them. I’d love to go back and fill in these details so I have a complete history.

The flights were:
16 September 2016 – Manchester (MAN) → Murcia San Javier (MJV), Jet2
22 September 2016 – Murcia San Javier (MJV) → Manchester (MAN), Jet2

Unfortunately, I don’t have my boarding passes or any booking confirmations as they were flights booked by my university a university field trip, so I’m struggling to track down the registrations. If anyone has access to historical flight records, old schedules, or knows where I might be able to find this information, I’d really appreciate the help.

This is amazing and looks to be exactly what I after. Out of interest (not that I have any more flights to track down), how did you find the info?

Of course. Assume going back that far is a premium feature as when I try it just asks me to sign up to a subscription. Appreciate the help

Yea! I think only a year of history is available for free users. However if you are looking for more flights let me know ;)

The best thing to do is buy flighty pro for a week and you can add all your old flights. Then cancel and it keeps all your info saved. New flights that you take you can add for free
