A Delta Air Lines flight was forced to return to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport on Monday morning after a “haze” filled the cabin, according to the airline.

Delta Air Lines Flight 876 landed safely at the airport at around 9 a.m. after the crew reported possible smoke in the flight deck while heading to Columbia, South Carolina, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said in a statement.

The Boeing 717 aircraft had just taken off about 30 minutes earlier, carrying 94 passengers and five crew members, FOX5 Atlanta reported.

Video taken from inside the aircraft shows the passenger cabin filling up with what appeared to be smoke. After landing safely on a runway, the video shows passengers using emergency slides and exits above the wings to leave the aircraft.

Toronto Pearson Airport. Everyone on board survived the ordeal, though injuries were reported. 

An American Airlines plane collided with a military Black Hawk helicopter near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, killing 67 people last month. Less than 48 hours later, a medical ambulance flight crashed in Philadelphia, leaving seven people dead.

Fox News Digital’s Stepheny Price contributed to this report.
