Work crews have fixed a power outage at New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport that forced some flights to be canceled or diverted, officials said Saturday.
Repairs were made overnight and full power was restored in Terminal 1, which handles some of the airport's international flights, said the airport's operator, The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.
The outage began Thursday when an electrical panel failure caused a small fire, authorities said. Dozens of flights were canceled and some were diverted to other airports.
