An engine fire broke out on a Delta Air Lines flight as it was preparing to depart Orlando International Airport on Monday morning, prompting passengers to evacuate using emergency slides, federal officials said.

The Federal Aviation Administration said that Flight 1213, which was headed to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport in Georgia, was leaving a gate around 11:15 a.m. when an engine caught fire.

Video of the episode circulating online showed flames and smoke billowing from the plane’s rear. Passengers could also be seen gliding down the slides from emergency exits.

There were no reports of injuries. Delta said there were 282 passengers and 12 crew members on board at the time.

“We appreciate our customers’ cooperation and apologize for the experience,” Delta said in a statement. “Nothing is more important than safety and Delta teams will work to get our customers to their final destinations as soon as possible.”

The airline added that its crews followed procedures to evacuate passengers from the Airbus A330 after “flames in the tailpipe of one of the aircraft’s two engines were observed.”

Photos on social media showed passengers with their belongings walking on the tarmac.

The F.A.A. said it would investigate what happened.
