On the night of November 6th to 7th, an Air France Airbus A350 and an American Airlines A321 nearly collided shortly after taking off from Los Angeles. Air traffic controllers prevented the disaster by ordering the aircraft to diverge. The incident caused no injuries or damage, but the cause of the deviation remains unknown. Both planes, carrying over 500 passengers, took off from parallel runways at Los Angeles International Airport. The Air France Airbus A350, en route to Papeete, took off from runway 24L at around 0:15, followed by the American Airlines A321, heading to Dallas-Fort Worth, which took off from runway 25R about a minute later. The Air France A350 made an unexpected left turn, dangerously approaching the American Airlines A321.
