A power outage at Vancouver International Airport's domestic terminal forced a handful of flight cancellations and several delays Thursday morning.
According to information on the YVR departures website, three flights to Calgary and Edmonton were cancelled earlier this morning and a number of others were delayed.
At 8:12 a.m. PT, YVR tweeted that power had been restored.
An earlier advisory recommended that all passengers check with their airline for updated flight information and arrival times prior to leaving for the airport.
We are having a power issue in the domestic terminal. Crews are working to fix as quickly as possible. We will provide more information here as it becomes available.

The power issue at YVR is impacting the domestic terminal only. Passengers are still being processed through security, but some services in the domestic terminal are effected. International and transborder are fully operational. More updates to come. Thank you for your patience.
