Fox 35 reported that there were no injuries during the incident.

The Airbus A330 was scheduled to depart for Atlanta with 200 passengers, 10 flight attendants and two pilots on board.

According to a Delta spokesperson, flight crews followed established safety procedures after noticing flames in the tailpipe of one of the jet’s two engines.

"Nothing is more important than safety and Delta teams will work to get our customers to their final destinations as soon as possible," the airline said in a statement.

Other footage shows the emergency slides being deployed. Customers have returned to the terminal building and will receive food and beverages, according to ClickOrlando.

Delta Air Lines stated it will “bring in additional aircraft to help get customers to their final destinations.” The fire has been contained.

In February, multiple people were injured in a Delta Air Lines plane crash at an airport in Toronto. The authorities believed at the time that the crash could have been the result of a communication error.
