The fire was reported and the flight returned to Wichita. The crew placed the device in a thermal containment bag while preparing for landing, Alaska Airlines said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Once the Embraer 175 jet returned to the gate, the passenger who had been using the device received medical attention, the FAA and Alaska Airlines said. An update on her condition was not available.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alaska Airlines said passengers arrived in Seattle on a later flight and that the airline &#8220;appreciated their patience.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The FAA said it is investigating the incident. The agency requires airlines to report incidents involving dangerous goods, a label that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.faa.gov\/hazmat\/packsafe\/resources\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">includes<\/a> batteries, battery-powered devices and aerosols.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Lithium batteries, which can be found in battery packs, phones, laptops and other electronics can pose a particular danger, the FAA said.
