Nine people sustained minor injuries, and dozens of flights were disrupted after a small fire erupted at JFK Airport in New York on Wednesday morning.
The fire began on an escalator in Concourse C, spreading smoke through Terminal 8 around 7:15 a.m.
Approximately 960 people were evacuated from the area and moved to another part of the terminal. Nine individuals suffered minor smoke inhalation, and four were taken to the hospital for evaluation.
The FDNY ventilated the terminal, and it was cleared to reopen.
American Airlines, which operates the terminal, reported that three American Eagle regional departures were canceled due to the fire, out of 89 total American flights scheduled to depart from JFK on Wednesday.
The airport advises checking with your carrier before traveling.
The exact cause of the fire is under investigation.
