SENNAN, Japan, June 8 (UPI) -- A Japan Airlines flight from Japan to Taiwan was completed safely during the weekend after fire was found under a seat and extinguished, airline officials said.
The Mainichi Daily News reported Monday a flight attendant used an extinguisher to put out the small fire, which occurred Saturday night on JAL Flight 653 from Kansai International Airport to Taipei. The Boeing 767-300, with 33 passengers and 10 crew members on board landed with no injuries reported.
The fire was under a seat in the aircraft's center section. The airline said it believes a cigarette lighter found under the seat cushion caused the fire, the newspaper said.
The plane's return flight to Japan Sunday morning was canceled because of the incident.
