Το αεροσκάφος, με 65 επιβάτες και εξαμελές πλήρωμα, προσγειώθηκε στο αεροδρόμιο Λάρνακας, αφού τηρήθηκαν όλα τα πρωτόκολλα ασφάλειας, ενώ συνοδεύτηκε από πυροσβεστικά οχήματα στον χώρο στάθμευσης. Οι επιβάτες αποβιβάστηκαν και τελικά αναχώρησαν για τον προορισμό τους λίγο μετά τις 15:00 με άλλο αεροσκάφος και πλήρωμα. Η αεροπορική εταιρεία κληθείσα από το SigmaLive δεν θέλησε να σχολιάσει οτιδήποτε, ενώ στη συνέχεια διέψευσε ότι υπήρξαν καπνοί στην καμπίνα. ΠΗΓΗ: SIGMALIVE
