An Air China Boeing 747-8 experienced a fuel leak at New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport early Monday, leading to the cancellation of flight CA982 to Beijing. The incident occurred between 1am and 2am while the plane was parked at the gate during refuelling. Photos shared on social media showed airport staff inspecting the aircraft’s fuel ports and cleaning up spilled fuel. Multiple passengers reported receiving cancellation notices citing 'fuel guarantee' as the reason. The South China Morning Post noted it had not independently verified the video footage circulating online.
