Narrative:

About 5 mins after takeoff we noticed hot air coming from the air vents and there was a haze in the aft portion of the aircraft. I called the #2 flight attendant and asked if he felt the hot air and he told me that he smelled something electrical. I then got out of my jump seat to see if I could smell it and I did smell a little. I then went to the cockpit and notified the captain. He and the first officer decided to return to cvg. We landed without incident and no harm to anyone.
