A vaping device sparked an emergency services callout at Wellington Airport this morning.
Emergency services were called to the airport's tarmac as a precaution to meet flight NZ8265 from Tauranga to Wellington this morning, Air New Zealand confirmed.
A spokeswoman said the callout was needed after "an e-vapour belonging to a customer was accidentally switched on in flight".
