Power restored to Terminal D of Philadelphia International Airport in Philadelphia, PA, US, Dec. 1; residual flight disruptions likely.
Authorities have restored electricity to Terminal D at Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, as of the evening of Dec. 1 following power disruptions at the terminal earlier in the day. The Dec. 1 power disruptions followed a similar hours-long outage that affected PHL's Terminal D on Nov. 30. PHL authorities have advised Delta Air Lines (DL), United Airlines (UA), JetBlue (B6), Air Canada (AC), Alaska Airlines (AS), and Spirit Airlines (NK) travelers to check with their respective airlines for flight status updates.
Residual flight disruptions will likely affect PHL over the coming hours. Any passenger backlogs that have materialized may exacerbate such flight disruptions.
Confirm flight reservations if scheduled to travel via PHL. Do not check out of accommodations until onward travel is confirmed. Consider making alternative arrangements for time-sensitive travel if necessary.
