Trudeau was on the Caribbean island for a family vacation, News.ro reports.

The Prime Minister, who must fly on a military plane for security reasons, arrived in Jamaica on December 26.

The problem was discovered on January 2, reports CBC News. A maintenance crew was on board the second plane a day later to fix the problem, according to a Canadian Defense Department official.

Trudeau returned on January 4 as planned.

Both CC-144 Challenger aircraft are relatively new acquisitions for the Canadian Armed Forces.

Justin Trudeau has suffered several travel incidents in recent years.

In September, his flight from Delhi to the G20 summit was delayed due to an unknown mechanical problem with his plane.

During his 2019 re-election campaign, a bus carrying journalists collided with the wing of a plane chartered by Trudeau’s Liberal Party.

Later that year, he had to use a spare plane to attend a NATO summit in London after the original plane was damaged in a hangar accident. But there was a problem with the spare plane and the Prime Minister had to use a third plane to return home.
