Terrified passengers onboard a U.K. flight were forced to evacuate down emergency slides after a bag said to have contained e-cigarettes and a power bank in a passenger's bag suddenly exploded.
Panicked passengers onboard a U.K. flight were forced to evacuate down emergency slides after a vape pen was suspected of exploding on their plane, filling the cabin with smoke. The EasyJet plane was preparing for take-off from Heraklion airport in Greece to Gatwick, London, on Tuesday when a bag said to have contained e-cigarettes and a power bank in a passenger's bag suddenly exploded, according to several reports.
The outlet reports that no passengers suffered burn injuries from the explosion, although one passenger suffered a friction burn from the evacuation slide. European passengers are permitted to take e-cigarette devices on planes, and it is forbidden to recharge them while on board the aircraft, according to the European Union Aviation Safety Agency. The Transportation Security Administration also permits electronic smoking devices on carry-on baggage as long as the batteries are removed.
