Had a job to photograph areal photos of a property and to do that I had to take off within 800m från the airport and to get the photo fly within 500m from the airport. The P4P would not take off so I lost a great deal of money for that missed job.

I'm in Sweden and had called the flight tower before who gave me a 20 min window to fly in.

Is there a way to fly anyway?

If you are a commercial pilot you would know that you always have to get permission for controlled airspace, it shouldn't be that difficult, you contact the proper authorities submit your plan and timescale, then let ATC know your there, there are reasons why you have NFZ and maybe the airport may not be so busy, but without contacting ATC and checking Notams, you run an unnecessary risk of causing problems for yourself and others.

If it is a big job and lots of money, then it's worth it to go through the proper channels,

I got the premissions needed here in Sweden but the DJI software would not let me fly.

I strongly recommend you get a P2V+ to deal with such situations.

Ok I wasn't to sure reading your post, on the app here first page you hit you will see a list of different stuff .

There is one I think it says UNLOCK NFZ APPLICATION, Click and you will get a link to apply to unlock your Aircraft from NFZ.

It's on the page where you click the me button.

The unlocking system doesn't seem to be implemented for Sweden yet as far as I can see. :/

It's more or less illegal to use DJI products in Sweden if you live here as they can be used as surveillance equipment. It's a stupid law so no one follows it though.

Like others have mentioned, you can attempt to get it unlocked via the Geo System in the app. Worse case, you would email flysafe@dji.com to get permission.
