An Air Transat A330 was operating flight TSC357 from Holguin/Frank Pais Airport (MUHG), Cuba to Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport (CYUL), QC. About 22 minutes after takeoff from MUHG, upon reaching FL340, the cabin crew reported to the flight crew that floors seemed to be overheating and smell of electrical wires burning in the cabin. The flight crew immediately initiated the Smoke/Fumes procedures, declared a PANPAN and diverted to Nassau/Lynden Pindling International Airport (MYNN), Bahamas and landed safely.
