A RPT ON AIR CONDITIONING PACK PROB. CABIN HOT AND HAZY; WITH ACRID SMELL.

Narrative

I WAS WORKING AFT FORWARD FROM BACK GALLEY. I NOTICED A BURNING SMELL. I CHKED OVENS -- NO ODOR OR SMOKE. I CHKED GALLEY AGAIN AND THE SMELL WAS STRONG. I WENT TO THE JUMP SEAT TO CALL CAPT. THERE WAS NO ANSWER. I RESET IT; REDIALED; NO ANSWER. I LOOKED UP AND SAW A LIGHT WHITE HAZE FILLING THE CABIN. ACRID SMELL. THE CAPT CAME ON PA AND ANNOUNCED A PROB WITH AIR CONDITIONING PACK AND THEY WERE SOLVING PROB AND EVERYTHING UNDER CTL. THE TEMP WAS EXTREMELY HOT. PEOPLE WERE RED FACED AND FANNING THEMSELVES. WE HIT A SMALL PERIOD OF BAD TURB AT THIS TIME. WE CONTINUED SVC. LANDED SAFELY. THE ACFT SHOULD HAVE BEEN TAXIED TO GATE IMMEDIATELY AND DEPLANED PAX. IT WAS STILL VERY HOT; BUT INSTEAD WE WERE ASKED TO SIT 15 MINS TILL OUR GATE VACATED. THERE WERE 3-4 PLANES AHEAD OF US. THE CAPT ASKED FOR A GATE IMMEDIATELY AND GOT ANOTHER THAT WAS NOT APCHABLE (CARTS IN WAY). 3RD GATE FINALLY WORKED. THIS WAS THE ONLY REAL THING THAT WASN'T HANDLED PROPERLY. MAINT MET US AND PULLED AIRPLANE OFF SCHEDULE LIST FOR MONDAY.
