A fire alarm at LF Wade International Airport this morning forced passengers and personnel to evacuate the terminal and delayed two flights, according to the Ministry of Tourism, Transport and Municipalities.

The cause of the alarm, which was triggered at around 11.45am, was not immediately clear.

“Following an assessment by Bermuda Fire & Rescue Services, the all-clear to re-enter the building was given at approximately 12.15pm,” a statement provided by the Ministry this afternoon said.

“Passenger processing recommenced quickly thereafter.”

Two flights bound for John F Kennedy International Airport were delayed as a result. Both affected flights departed early this afternoon.

‘All other flights operated as normal,” the Ministry said.

There were no reports of any injuries or damages.
