Was Jettime delayed?
Flight compensation from Jettime for delay due to illness?
In January 2025, a Jettime flight from Stockholm bound for Gran Canaria was forced to land at Billund Airport.
The reason for the “safety landing” was – according to Jettime – that the plane’s first officer (co-pilot) had caught a cold and that Jettime had chosen to replace the first officer.
As a result, Jettime’s passengers were delayed for approximately 2 hours and 40 minutes.
It is not an “extraordinary circumstance” if one of the flight attendants or pilots falls ill before (or during) a flight, and therefore the airline is generally obliged to pay flight compensation if a long delay occurs as a result.
However, according to the Air Regulation (EC) 261/2004 and the judgments issued pursuant to it, passengers are only entitled to flight compensation for delays if the delay is at least 3 hours. 3 hours. This means that the guests who were traveling from Stockholm to Gran Canaria are not entitled to flight compensation from Jettime in this specific situation.
