Firefighters worked to put out a fire outside a cargo building at San Francisco International Airport on Friday afternoon in an area away from the main passenger terminals.
A fire was reported around 2:15 p.m. inside several cargo containers outside of a United Airlines cargo building on South McDonnell Road but has since been contained.
The San Francisco Fire Department was joined by the San Bruno Fire Department to put out the one-alarm fire.
The San Francisco Fire Department posted on X that the fire was contained to five “conex storage containers.”
No injuries or threats to the public were reported.
Roads in the immediate area are closed due to smoke, but flight operations at SFO are not impacted.
The AirTrain Blue Line that runs to the rental car center and long-term parking was temporarily suspended. A bus connection from the terminals was launched.
