JetBlue flight 915 from New York to San Francisco made an unscheduled stop for a flaming laptop.

The plane landed at Gerald R. Ford International Airport in Grand Rapids, Michigan, after smoke was seen coming from a carry-on bag.

The fire was extinguished before the plane landed.

The flight resumed after a 40-minute delay.
