A Boeing-757 carrying Scandinavian tourists to the Cap Verde islands was forced to undertake a security landing at Casablanca Airport in Morocco after fire broke out in a pantry on board.

None of the 239 pasengers on board - 159 Danes and 80 Swedes - were hurt in the incident and crew were able to put out the fire using on-board fire extinguishers.

"Everyone is out of the plane and there are no problems. No-one was nervous," says Star Tours Sales Director Stig Elling.

Star Tours is in the process of finding alternative transport for its passengers.
