Girl's iPhone 6 Catches Fire On Flight To Hawaii Girl's iPhone 6 Catches Fire On Flight To Hawaii Girl's iPhone 6 Catches Fire On Flight To Hawaii A young woman's iPhone burst into flames while she was on an Alaska Airlines flight from Washington to Hawaii. Anna Crail, who was flying to Honolulu for her spring break vacation, was watching a movie on Thursday night when her smartphone suddenly caught on fire. The phone fell underneath a seat and passengers scrambled to the aisles before flight attendants extinguished the fire. When the iPhone 6 broke out in flames, the airplane, which was carrying 163 passengers, was still 90 minutes away from landing. Crail, who initially thought the plane was going down, wrote on Twitter: 'Legit saw my life flash before my eyes tonight when my phone burst into flames midflight and caught the plane on fire.' The Wenatchee Valley College student told KOMO-TV: 'All of the sudden there was like 8-inch flames coming out of my phone. 'And I flipped it off onto the ground and it got under someone's seat, and the flames were just getting higher and a bunch of people stood up.' It is unclear whether Crail had been watching a movie on her phone, or enjoying the airplane's in-flight entertainment.
