Video shows moment Delta plane catches fire at Sea-Tac, passengers evacuate using slides


SEATTLE – A new video has captured the moment the front of a Delta plane burst into flames after landing at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport earlier in May.

The fire broke out after Delta Air Lines flight 604 landed at SEA Airport from Cancun, Mexico on Monday, May 6.

The Airbus A321neo had just arrived Monday from Cancun, Mexico when the 189 passengers onboard were ordered to evacuate on emergency slides due to a fire in the plane’s nose area.

First responders are later seen gathering around the front of the plane.

“During deplaning on the evening of May 6, the crew of Flight 604 from Cancun to Seattle witnessed smoke in the aircraft nose area after plugging into ground electrical power,” a Delta spokesperson told FOX Business in a statement. “Out of an abundance of caution, slides were deployed and passengers still on board deplaned via the rear of the aircraft.”
