Who operates Jet2 flight LS 557?
In our data, Jet2 is the airline selling LS557. Who actually operates the flight is shown on your ticket or booking confirmation.
Was LS 557 part of a connecting flight? How is compensation calculated?
Your booking shows this, not the flight number. If LS557 was part of a connecting journey on one booking, distance is counted from the first departure airport to the final destination, and the delay is counted on arrival at the final destination. The distance band (short-, medium- or long-haul) follows that distance and may then differ from this leg (£350 (UK261), or €400 if EU261 applies).
