On Saturday afternoon, after a potential security breach, travelers were quickly evacuated from a terminal at the John F. Kennedy International Airport.

As confirmed by a Port Authority spokesman, a person, who was traveling on a flight from Orlando, walked right through the door that was supposed to be used only by employees, and this set off an alarm across the Terminal 8 at around 3:30 PM.

Passengers from across the terminal, as well as those on three boarded plans on the tarmac, were requested to evacuate. The terminal was re-opened at about 6PM and the travelers then had to go through a long screening process.

"It's really frustrating, especially because our plane was fully boarded before the time that the breach supposedly occurred, so it seems possible that our plane would have been implicated by the breach. So I don't see why we were part of the group that had to be re-screened. But I guess that's the way it goes", said an agitated traveler.

Terminal 8 of the JFK Airport handles from domestic and international flights. Officials have said that while the trespassing person could not be identified, the incident has been caught on surveillance video.
