Fury as captain flees his own plane and abandons his passengers after fire breaks out on board | The Sun

This is from The Sun so take it for what it's worth.

He’d have probably been the last person out if everyone else wasn’t too busy getting their carryons.

It has been reported elsewhere that it was the FO (not the CA) that left the flight deck. I have not verified, but this would make sense as other air carriers have similar procedures where the FO (sic) evacs first and helps corral the pax away from the jet….
