MONTREAL – A Delta flight from New York had to make an emergency landing at Montreal's Trudeau Airport Friday afternoon.

Anne-Sophie Hamel, spokeswoman for the airport authority, said it was due to smoke on board and there were no injuries.

Hamel said airport officials were told it was not related to mechanical issues.
