多伦多皮尔逊机场周二晚间表示，因接到冒烟报告，负责管理机坪飞机流动的塔台被疏散，进出该机场的航班面临延误。
Flights to and from Toronto's Pearson airport are facing delays Tuesday night after reports of smoke prompted the evacuation of a tower that manages the flow of aircraft traffic at gates and loading zones, the airport says.
多伦多皮尔逊机场在社交媒体平台 X 上发帖称，其“机坪管理单位塔台”已被疏散。
In a post on the social media platform X, Toronto Pearson said its "apron management unit tower" was evacuated.
多伦多皮尔逊机场在帖子中表示：“工作人员随后已返回并恢复运作，但目前实施了一项空中交通管理措施，导致进出港航班延误。”机场敦促乘客直接向航空公司查询航班状态。
"Staff have since returned and resumed operations, but an air traffic management initiative is in effect resulting in delays to arriving and departing flights," Toronto Pearson said in the post. The airport urged passengers to check their flight status directly with their airlines.
根据机场网站介绍，该单位负责管理机场机坪上飞机交通的“安全与高效”流动。
On its website, the airport says the unit manages the "safe and expeditious" flow of aircraft traffic on the airport's apron.
加拿大领航公司发言人加布里埃尔·布尔热周二晚间在电子邮件中表示，其在皮尔逊机场的空中交通管制塔台未被疏散，继续正常运作。布尔热称，飞行员与加拿大领航空中交通管制员之间的通讯未受影响。
Gabriel Bourget, spokesperson for NAV Canada, said in an email on Tuesday night that its air traffic control tower at Pearson was not evacuated and continues to operate normally. Bourget said communications between pilots and NAV Canada air traffic controllers were not affected.
布尔热表示，机坪管理单位由大多伦多机场管理局运营。加拿大领航的空中交通管制员负责管理空中以及跑道和滑行道上飞机的安全移动，而大多伦多机场管理局负责管理航站楼及登机口周边区域。
The apron management unit is operated by the Greater Toronto Airports Authority, Bourget said. NAV Canada's air traffic controllers manage the safe movement of aircraft in the air and on runways and taxiways, while the GTAA manages the areas around the terminal buildings and gates.
加拿大航空在致受延误影响航班乘客的通知中，将该情况描述为涉及大多伦多机场管理局及其机坪管理单位的“安全事件”。
In a notice to passengers on flights affected by the delays, Air Canada described the situation as a "safety incident" involving the GTAA and its apron management unit.
“该情况正在影响多个航班，且不在加拿大航空的控制范围内，”加拿大航空在通知中表示。
"The situation is impacting multiple flights and is outside of Air Canada’s control," Air Canada said in the notice.
“我们的团队正积极采取措施减轻影响，并尽可能将延误降至最低。我们了解延误对您行程的影响，衷心为由此造成的不便致歉。”
"Our teams are actively working to mitigate the impact and minimize delays wherever possible. We recognize the impact delays can have on your travel plans and sincerely apologize for the disruption."
