All 176 people on board, including passengers and crew, were evacuated. Seven people were injured, including four crew members with smoke inhalation and three passengers with back pain. Firefighters extinguished the flames after about an hour. The airport resumed normal operations the following day, though some flights were canceled. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
