VIENNA (Reuters) - Smoke in the cockpit forced a plane carrying 143 passengers and six crew to the eastern French city of Lyon from Budapest to make an emergency landing in Graz, Austria's second city, Austrian police said on Monday.
"No people were injured in the incident. The cause of the smoke is currently unclear," police in the Austrian state of Styria, of which Graz is the capital, said in a statement.
The statement did not specify which airline the plane belonged to but the only flight from Budapest on Monday listed on Lyon-Saint Exupery airport's website was EasyJet flight 4400.
EasyJet's website said the flight was diverted to Graz and landed there at 3:25 p.m. (1325 GMT). It also listed a "follow-on flight" to Lyon from Graz scheduled for 5 p.m. but estimated to depart at 9:45 p.m.
Flight tracking website Flightradar24, which EasyJet features on its website, said the plane that landed in Graz was an Airbus 319.
