Most flights from LAX and SFO to London and Paris are Trans Polar flights. They don't fly over the states.

Based on all I've read in last couple of weeks, I'd say there is a good chance these flights were the first wave, fully loaded with fuel, planned to hit LONDON . . . then the second wave would be cargo flights originating closer to U.S. for the second wave American targets . . .

I had read on a site earlier today that the US had obtained information relating to flight information. I can't remember where offhand, only that I was searching through the homeland security and steven quale sites. Maybe the cancellations are related to that information. If anyone's interested, the cancelled flights are: (1) AF060, which departs from Paris, charles de Gaulle (CDG) - France - Terminal 2E at 1:35PM, scheduled to arrive at LAX - Terminal 5 at 4:05PM with no stopovers; (2) AF070, which departs from CDG, Terminal 2E at 7PM, scheduled to arrive at LAX, Terminal B at 9:30PM with no stopovers; and (3)dddTN102 (An AirTahiti Flight) scheduled to depart from Auckland/Papeete. Since FOX NEWS just announced that 6 flights from France have now been cancelled and one or more from LAX to France have been cancelled, you can get any other information you may be curious about from the Air France website.
