JFK terminal shutdown could last into tomorrow PM amid power woes, FAA website warns, wreaking int'l havoc.
at JFK Airport stretched into a second day Friday, with all inbound and outbound flights at the New York City hub's international terminal halted -- at least through the rest of the day and possibly longer.
The fracas started around mid-morning Thursday, when JFK Airport first tweeted about a"power disruption" causing some terminal changes for departures and arrivals. Four hours later, it acknowledged the problem at Terminal 1, which serves more than a dozen international airlines and accounts for 8.5% of the airport's total gates, was escalating.
A power outage at JFK Terminal 1 is impacting the terminal’s ability to accept inbound and outbound flights. We are working to accommodate impacted flights using other terminals. Travelers, please check flight status with your airline before heading to the airport.The outage had been expected to be resolved by early to mid-morning Friday, but JFK Airport tweeted shortly before midnight that the terminal would stay closed for the rest of the day. There was no update on when it might reopen.
"Not really sure what’s going on — no one is aware of the situation, at least that’s what it seems like," said frustrated passenger Anthony Russo, who was hoping to make it to London."I had a lot planned, I was gonna see some friends, and now I don’t know what the hell is happening."
