An Alaska Airlines plane, flying from New Orleans to Seattle, was reportedly evacuated on an emergency basis after a Samsung Galaxy A21 caught fire inside the flight's cabin. The crew had to use battery containment bags and fire extinguishers to control the fire. However, smoke forced the deployment of evacuation slides. The incident took place after the plane had landed at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.
