SW 1044 FLL-BUF

[NYARTCCFAN]

Listening to "Southwest 1044" trying to make it back to Orlando after
getting smoke and burning smell in the cabin.
During the return, the pilot said the smoke had dissipated, but he
wanted to return as a precautionary.
I heard his handoffs on:
119.825 Miami Ctr
126.950 Miami Ctr
124.800 Orlando Appr
123.850 Orlando Appr heading for Rnwy 35R.

Very interesting. I checked the employee website haven't seen anything yet.

Hope all is ok! Seems they did an arcft swap to a -700 for the rest of the segment.

I hope everything is ok with the people on board and the plane! The plane is a 735 so I am sure you can imagine it could fill the cabin quite quick! depending on what caused it,etc.
