Cellphone in Electric Seats

[pelmet]

I did it myself one time. The cellphone fell into the lie flat seat and it took a long time for maintenance to find it at destination. Fortunately, no smoke in my case. Best to see if you can find a new seat if this happens instead of moving it......

C-FVNB, an Air Canada B787-9 conducted flight AC27 from Toronto Pearson International Airport
(CYYZ), ON to Incheon International Airport (RKSI), South Korea. On arrival in RKSI, a passenger
dropped a cellphone into a seat and tried to retrieve the phone by moving the seat. The phone was
crushed by the movement of the seat causing a small fire/smoke. The flight crew was notified, and
ARFF was dispatched to the aircraft. The captain requested a deplanement of all passengers. 4
extinguishers were brought out in total with pins pulled. 2 extinguishers were used. No injuries.
