An Air Emirates flight to Dubai has landed safely after returning to Perth amid reports of an on-board emergency.
Flight EK425, which had 120 passengers on board, landed safely at 8.50am (WST) after leaving Perth International Airport at 6.30am.
Westralia Airports Corporation spokesman Malcolm Bradshaw said he could not confirm reports the plane's pilots had reported smoke in the cockpit of the plane.
He said emergency vehicles and fire crews had been alerted when the airport's emergency system was activated, but were not required to respond to an emergency.
He said the aircraft had been making a direct flight to Dubai.
"The plane informed air traffic control it was returning and the plane landed safely. All passengers and crew are safe," Mr Bradshaw said.
