Even though every passenger was safely evacuated, worries about possible property hazards because of the smoke persisted.
Responders used thermal imaging technology to identify increased heat inside the aircraft, which prompted continued safety monitoring. Witnesses saw firefighters participating in smoke dives within the aircraft at the time of the incident.
Authorities are still focused on protecting the safety of travelers and property at Arlanda Airport while they try to identify what caused the smoke.
