Earlier today, aVirgin Australia flight from Sydney to Hobart made a more dramatic arrival than planned in Tasmania after a fire broke out inside the cabin of the aircraft operating the service. With the cabin crew having been able to contain the situation, the flight was able to continue to Hobart as planned, where it made a safe landing this morning. However, it has led to knock-on operational effects for the airline.
