The incident occurred while the plane, which was en route from Barcelona to Boston with 296 passengers, was in flight. Upon landing, 14 passengers required assistance as they exited the aircraft. Eight of the affected passengers were treated on the tarmac, while four were transported to a hospital with minor smoke inhalation injuries.
