A Frontier Airlines flight from San Diego to Las Vegas faced a dangerous moment during its landing at Harry Reid International Airport. Over 150 passengers were aboard when the plane caught fire as it touched down. Thick smoke and flames came from the undercarriage, which triggered an immediate response from airport authorities.

The flight had 190 passengers and crew members. After the hard landing, emergency services responded swiftly. Fortunately, everyone evacuated safely, without any injuries. Pilots noticed the issue as soon as they landed, which prompted them to declare an emergency right away.

All passengers exited the plane using the airstairs and were transported to the terminal. Although the incident briefly disrupted operations at the airport, normal activities resumed soon after.
