A Delta Air Lines flight from Boston reversed the course after a “smoked smell” was detected Sunday in its cabin.
Flight 1398, which left Logan international airport at 8:55 a.m. on Sunday morning, was to land in New Orleans at noon before overthrowing the course.
The Airbus A220 plane transported 87 customers, plus three on -board agents and two drivers. He landed in Beantown around 9:35 am
A Delta spokesman told Fox News that the plane had declared an emergency to obtain a priority landing for air traffic control, and that the emergency intervention staff had met the plane on the track. The plane reached its door safely and all the passengers continued their trips.
