A Delta Air Lines transatlantic flight from Sweden was canceled after one of the pilots failed a breathalyzer test. If she was over the limit, should she be forced to pay for all the compensation Delta now incurs from her own pocket?
This incident occurred on Delta flight 205 from Stockholm Arlanda (ARN) to New York (JFK) on Tuesday, July 22, 2025.
