The incident caused quite a stir as the pilot had to halt their flight to Frankfurt and instead safely land at Hannover’s airport. A representative for Hannover airport shared this news.
Luckily, all 89 passengers and 4 crew members were unharmed and could have exited the plane had they wished. A fire was not detected, according to the spokesperson. The cause of the smoke in the cockpit of the Bombardier CRJ900 remains a mystery.
