The aircraft touched down at Frankfurt Airport at 5.43pm local time. During the stopover, the plane refuelled before departing for its original destination, according to The Mirror.

The Airbus A321 arrived at Burgas at 10.27pm local time (8.27pm BST) – roughly one hour and 45 minutes behind its planned arrival time of 8.40pm local time.

On its website, Jet2 stated: “Due to a medical incident on board, we wanted to let you know that flight LS1413 London Stansted to Bourgas will need to make a fuel stop in Frankfurt.”

“Once the plane has refuelled, it will then continue to Bourgas Airport. This is an unscheduled change, so we’re doing everything we can to minimise any disruption to your onward journey.
