Southwest Airlines flight 3654 had to make an emergency landing in Baltimore, Maryland, on December 10.
The decision for emergency landing was made after a smoke detector set off. The plane was en-route from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida to Baltimore Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport.
The Boeing 737 landed uneventfully and all 118 passengers and 5 crew members remained unhurt.
The airline said in a statement that the fire detector went off after a passenger used an e-cigarette in the lavatory.
