Heavy rains flooded an airport in China on Wednesday.

The tarmac at Haikou Meilan International Airport was under several feet of water, which covered the landing gear of parked planes.

Airport staff and cabin crew members were forced to wade through the floodwaters.

Ground staff later unblocked the drainage system, quickly clearing the floodwaters, according to officials.

There were no serious delays to either arrivals or departures, according to the airport.
