Flights to Japan from Europe were disrupted in the wake of the earthquake Friday.

British Airways, part of International Consolidated Airlines Group SA (IAG.LN, IAG.MC), cancelled two flights to Tokyo from London. Two flights from Japan to the U.K. departed before the earthquake struck, so the carrier has no planes in the country.

A British Airways spokeswoman couldn't say when flights to Japan would resume, but said the carrier was keeping the situation under review.

Tokyo's Narita airport was closed and Haneda airport was only partially open. Narita could reopen later in the day.

Franco-Dutch airline Air France-KLM (AF.FR) hadn't decided whether to operate two Air France services from Europe to Japan Friday. One flight from Paris to Tokyo was diverted to Osaka.

One KLM flight from Amsterdam to Tokyo also was re-routed to Osaka and another was cancelled.

At Deutsche Lufthansa AG (LHA.XE), one flight to Japan was postponed, spokesman Michael Lamberty said. There were no reports of Lufthansa employees affected, he added.

Its Swiss unit still was planning to operate a flight to Japan later Friday.

Finnish airline Finnair Oyj (FIA1S.HE) said it had cancelled a flight from Helsinki to Tokyo. "That is all we have decided at this point," a Finnair spokeswoman told Dow Jones.
