If your flight was LS918 last night, I was watching FR24 when your aircraft, on a straight-in final approach to 05 at 6000ft and after passing Chester, turned north closely followed by a TCX B767. This allowed a TCX (or TOM) B757 aircraft approaching from the south to land before your aircraft and the TCX 767. Both your aircraft and the TCX 767 did two circuits in a hold over Wigan before returning to land on 05.
If you were told that you were giving way to an aircraft with a technical problem it certainly was not a Jet2 aircraft.
Hope you had a good holiday.
To confirm that the aircraft that took priority was the late running TCX2159 from Santorini.
