SEATAC, Wash. (AP) — Flooding has closed part of a concourse at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.
The south portion of the A Concourse had water running over the floor Tuesday morning, The Seattle Times reported. The flooding started just before 7 a.m. and closed all A gates south of gate A10 until further notice, according to airport spokesperson Chris Guizlo.
He said the gates are used by a number of airlines, including United, Delta and some international carriers. Airport personnel were cleaning up the water and working with airlines to move flights to alternate gates, Guizlo said.
