    Norwegian royals evacuated from plane in Denmark

    COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — A Scandinavian airlines flight with 135 people on board, including the Norwegian Crown Prince and Princess, has been evacuated at Copenhagen's main airport Kastrup after smoke was detected in the cabin.

    SAS spokesman Mikkel Thrane says the cabin was filled with smoke due to an engine problem, but that all passengers were evacuated safely early Sunday.

    He says the plane was bound for Oslo and that Norway's Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit were among the passengers.

    Mette-Marit, who is known for her fear of flying, later thanked the SAS crew that managed the evacuation, writing on Twitter that her "morning turned out a bit more exciting than expected.. Phew.. (hash)stillnotentirelyoverflightphobia."

      A crown Prince and Princess traveling on a regular flight with common people? You would never catch an American politician lowering themselves to travle with the low class. Even state Governors would never lower themselves that much. They would rather charter a 30 passanger Jet to fly them 100 miles than subject themselves to mingling with the lower class

        I've seen Senators and Congressmen on flights more than a couple of times. When I was a baby Sen. John Glenn held me while I was screaming so my mom could take a break in coach. It's funny how perception and reality are so far from each other. Makes you wander why people believe the things they do.

      Glad they were on the ground and didn't have to evacuate at 30,000 feet.

      Smoke in the cabin due to engine problem? I thought the engines were mounted outside on the wings.

        True, but "fresh"air is pulled in from outside the plane to make sure the passengers have enough oxigen to breath.

      The smoke detected in the cabin was from the Danish royal family. It stuck to Haakon and Mette-Marit's clothes when they hugged them goodbye.

      Learn general information how the aircraft operates,the wings,engines,landing gear,pay attention to the Flight Attendants and read you Safety Information card. When you know and understand how these systems operate you feel alot more comfortable.Like your car, you understand what the transmission does,the tires,shocks,brakes,engine, steering wheel etc.
