Two Air France flights en route to Paris from the United States were diverted on Tuesday because of security concerns, the Federal Aviation Administration said.

An Airbus A-380 departed Los Angeles and landed in Salt Lake City, where passengers and crew members were being transferred to the terminal, an F.A.A. spokesman said.

A flight from Dulles International Airport near Washington was diverted to Halifax International Airport in Nova Scotia also because of an unspecified security concern, the agency said.
