Czech Airlines plane returns to Cyprus after smoke smelled on board

A Czech Airlines plane flying from Cyprus to Prague on Saturday turned back after smoke was smelled on board. A spokesperson for CSA told the news website idnes.cz that passengers had not been in danger. She said the smoke had been caused by a short circuit in one of the aircraft’s computers; once the problem was rectified, passengers reboarded the plane at Larnaca airport on Sunday morning and it returned to the Czech Republic.
