BOSTON (AP) - A Delta Express flight bound for Orlando, Fla. returned to Logan Airport shortly after takeoff Monday morning when smoke was detected in the cabin. Russ Williams, a spokesman for Atlanta-based Delta, said the odor was detected aboard the 737 shortly after takeoff, at about 7:30 a.m.

The captain declared an emergency and returned the plane to Logan without incident, Williams said. Passengers were accommodated on other Delta flights, he said.

The flight carried 88 passengers.
