If this was a Boeing it'd be national news. But it's a Airbus.

To be fair, Boeing issues are only national news because there's 1 to 2 a week, and their whistleblowers keep mysteriously dying.
It seems to be an airbus 319-321 series. Based on what I can see, the fire started where ground power cable connects to aircraft and im willing to bet, the issue was with the cable itself and not the aircraft. I also hope the ground personnel had the wherewithall to shut down the power going to the cable.

So what's the protocol on fires? They just let it burn? They don't out them?
Glad everyone grabbed their overhead luggage before they deplaned!!!

Yeah. Right. So stupid.
Welcome to the age of mediocrity everyone.
Notice how they DON'T specify that it's an Airbus A321 NEO in the title. DETAILS ARE IMPORTANT! Yet whenever they're specifying something wrong with a Boeing aircraft, it's always in the headline.

Ok even if they specify it it's not a plane issue!
Investigators found that an electrical cord plugged into the plane after landing generated sparks which caused the fire.
The deplaning emergency system worked fantastic 👍

The delays of passengers collecting their baggage before deplaning could have caused many deaths in a more severe plane emergency. The rules are "Exit plane in an orderly manner" "DO NOT RETRIEVE BAGGAGE, LUGGAGE OR CARRY ONS.

Looks like an electrical fire from a high voltage short circuit. Plane isn't going anywhere, but it wasn't likely to threaten the passengers.

Is it because its an airbus thats why passengers dont get terrified even when there is a fire? They must have thought its an airbus its safe 😅
For all those saying it was a lithium battery no it wasn’t. This was a fault with either the plug from ground power/ power cart or the socket on the plane that the cable plugs into.

Many of the recent issues with Boeing planes have been due to questionable maintenance practices, (the plane that lost a wheel, for example) but that didn’t keep them from sticking the B-word in every headline.
Can we blame for this also😂😂😂
What caught my attention was not the cause of the fire, but the delay in combat action.
Where are the fire extinguishers at the front of the plane? Nobody is putting the fire out. They are all standing around watching!
