VANCOUVER - WestJet says passengers aboard a Vancouver-Toronto flight were delayed by about six hours after their plane made an emergency landing shortly after takeoff.
Airline spokesman Robert Palmer says the flight left Vancouver on Saturday morning, but returned as a precautionary measure after a pilot noticed a strange smell.
Palmer says it appears the smell was caused by excess lubricant, which was left behind during maintenance the night before.
The jetliner was carrying 128 passengers and six crew members.
