アルカイダの脅威に欠航相次ぐ。
ブリティッシュ・エアウェイズに続き…
エアー・フランスもワシントン行きの便を欠航に。
（ブッシュピンチだし、ここらで一発どーんといつもの「アルカイダの脅威」が欲しいところだから
今回の警告は現実味を帯びていると感じたと云うことか。
まぁ、大統領選の年だから…）

'Al-Qaeda threat' grounds flights
BA also cancelled several flights in January over security fears
Three British Airways flights to the US have been halted amid fears al-Qaeda may be targeting them.
Flights BA 223 from London Heathrow to Washington on Sunday and Monday and flight BA 207 to Miami on Sunday were grounded on government advice.
Air France also said it was cancelling two Paris-to-Washington flights.
US officials said they had received reports of "al-Qaeda's desire to target" five or six specific flights from Europe, Reuters news agency said.
"There was specific credible threat information that was shared with some foreign governments, including the British and French governments, and the decisions were made to cancel these flights," a spokeswoman for the US Homeland Security Department told AFP.
"We remain concerned about al-Qaeda's desire to target international aviation," she added.
Terror fears
A BA spokeswoman said safety was the airline's top priority.
"The safety and security of our operations is our absolute priority and will not be compromised," she said.
Air France flights AF026 were cancelled Sunday and Monday "for reasons of security," spokeswoman Veronique Brachet said.
BA's Flight 223 had been the subject of concern early in January, when it was cancelled twice because of security fears and then delayed for hours several more times.
US officials said on Friday new intelligence indicated BA Flight 223 and Air France flights from Paris to an unspecified US city could be terror targets.
A British Department for Transport spokesman said the decision to cancel the flights was made "in the light of information received".
He said: "Aviation security measures are adjusted from time to time, and occasional cancellations may be necessary.
"The first priority is always the safety of the travelling public."
The US Homeland Security Department has said it has no plans to raise its current alert level.
