Air France passengers uneasy leaving Logan Airport
Despite closing its borders, flights and trains in and out of the country will continue, Fox News reported. American Airlines said all its flights would run too, except a Paris-to-Dallas flight – that plane remained in Dallas when the Paris-bound leg was canceled Friday night.

Flights to Paris airports are operating normally, although there are extra security checks at all airports across the country, which may cause delays to flights. It also advised passengers to arrive early at the airport for their flights.
President Jacob Zuma has sent condolences to the people of France through a message to French President Francois Hollande.
Air France says it will operate all upcoming flights to and from France but that delays were expected because of increased security measures at airports, including Paris’ Charles de Gaulle Airport. “For our customers who wish to change their travel plans, we have a flexible travel policy waiver in place”.
A spokeswoman for the Federal Aviation Administration said the agency was “following the situation closely and remains in close contact with our security and law enforcement partners”.
Intending passengers to France have been cancelling at levels of about 50 per cent per flight, according to a spokesman for Aer Lingus.
Foreign Affairs Minister Stéphane Dion expressed Canada’s support for France in the “fight against terror”, and said help is available to Canadians overseas. The flight was first delayed, then canceled.
Ryanair said it is operating a full schedule of flights to and from all French airports today.
