At least five flights, including two from the UK, have been affected by bomb threats, which caused unplanned landings and temporary airport closures.

Warsaw-Modlin Airport temporarily closed after a flight from London Heathrow, operated by Polish airline LOT, was diverted there. It had been due to land at Warsaw-Chopin Airport.

The airport has since reopened and no device was found.

A bomb threat ⁠was also reported on a Scandinavian Airlines flight from Copenhagen to Warsaw, which landed at Warsaw-Chopin Airport, with the airport later confirming that no device was found.

There. Missed the minimal.

Guys, when another copy of this article hits lemmy, please downvote the shit out of this half-assedry so the one with a modicum of effort is selected for others and this one doesn't show up anymore. Thanks.

    Isn't closing an airport and re-routing planes for bomb threats an admission that airport security and screening is ineffective?
