Two flights departing from Logan Airport were forced to turn around after taking off Sunday.

Delta Airlines Flight 464 from Boston to Salt Lake City returned to Logan after departure due to an “indication related to one of the aircraft’s doors,” according to a company spokesperson.

“After inspection by maintenance, the aircraft was cleared and continued its journey, landing safely in Salt Lake City,” the Delta spokesperson said in a statement.

American Airlines Flight 2616 from Boston to Philadelphia also had to turn around “shortly after takeoff due to a maintenance issue,” according to a spokesperson.

“The flight landed safely and taxied to the gate under its own power. The aircraft has been taken out of service to be inspected by our maintenance team,” the American Airlines spokesperson said in a statement.
