Warsaw-Modlin Airport temporarily closed after a Tuesday morning flight from London Heathrow, operated by Polish airline LOT, was diverted there. It had been due to land at Warsaw-Chopin Airport.
At 9.54am, a bomb threat alert was raised on the Boeing 737 MAX, which was carrying 181 people.
The flight landed safely seven minutes later, Warsaw Modlin Airport, which has since reopened, said on its website, and the bomb threat was "cancelled" at 12.21pm.
No device was found following a security inspection, a spokesperson for LOT Polish Airlines said, adding that passengers were taken to Warsaw Chopin Airport by coach.
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.
In another incident, a Ryanair plane from Manchester made an emergency landing at Murcia Airport in southeastern Spain, due to a threat, with 114 passengers and seven crew members leaving the plane.
Francisco Lucas, the Spanish government's delegate in the region, said on X that the Civil Guard ruled out the presence of explosives on the plane after an inspection.
A UK government spokesperson said of the two planes that flew from Britain: "The UK has one of the most robust aviation security systems in the world, with well-tested processes for dealing with any potential threats, as well as malicious hoax threats, like those we've seen today.
"Our world-leading police and intelligence agencies work closely every day to keep us safe, using the tools they have to assess and respond to potential threats."
Bomb threats were also made against two planes traveling from Bergamo and Dublin to Bulgaria's capital Sofia, the country's transport ministry said in a statement to Reuters news agency.
Both landed safely and no explosive devices were found on inspection.
The Bergamo flight was operated by Wizz Air and was carrying 176 passengers, while the Dublin flight was operated
by Ryanair and had 185 passengers on board.
Local media in Bulgaria had earlier reported that a flight from Israel had been one of those affected.
A Ryanair flight from Lisbon to Sofia landed at Rome's Fiumicino airport on Tuesday morning after an emailed threat of a bomb on board was received, a Fiumicino official with knowledge of the events, said.
An inspection found no explosives on the plane.
The affected flights are:
- A Ryanair flight from Manchester to Murcia
- A LOT flight from London Heathrow to Warsaw
- An SAS flight from Copenhagen to Warsaw
- A Wizz Air flight from Bergamo to Sofia
- A Ryanair flight from Dublin to Sofia
- A Ryanair flight from Lisbon to Sofia
- A Wizz Air flight from London to Sofia (Monday)
The threats come a day after a Wizz Air flight from London to the Bulgarian capital Sofia was diverted to Budapest airport after receiving a bomb threat.
Paul Chichester, director of operations at the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) added the impact was minimal but his organisation is working with the businesses involved.
He was speaking after hackers targeted fridges and freezers in supermarkets in several European countries, including Ireland and France, causing temperatures to increase and food to spoil.
Dr Richard Horne, head of the NCSC, said at the launch of the centre's annual report that teams had been working throughout the night to alert British firms that are vulnerable to such an attack.
He also revealed that the French attack in October involved legacy technology connected to the internet with default passwords.
An NCSC spokesperson said the body was "aware of a small number of UK organisations that may be affected by this incident", but said the organisation was still liaising with affected sectors to understand and mitigate its impact.
The NCSC head told Sky News' security correspondent Tom Cheshire that it was "simply too early to tell" who was behind recent attacks.
Talking about the recent hacks in mainland Europe, Cheshire said they "have shown us that this is an all of society thing, a message we keep hearing from government, but one that is really, really true".
Dr Horne said such attacks reinforced warnings from the defence secretary that people in the UK should stockpile food, water and emergency supplies.
The end of 'tech on the cheap'
In his speech launching the NCSC's annual report, Dr Horne said the UK is at risk because it has done "tech on the cheap" for decades.
The organisation has warned Britain faces the prospect of AI-boosted attacks on critical national infrastructure in the next two years.

AI is 'super charging' cyber security threat
Hackers demanding ransom payments are "highly likely" to use AI to target the UK by 2028 and hostile states such as Russia and China will routinely use the technology to pursue their goals by then, the report found.
"Vulnerabilities that have been tolerated for far too long can now be discovered and exploited at a scale that was once unimaginable," Dr Horne warned.
He warned that if businesses do not take action now, they will have to explain why they did not heed the warning signs amid empty supermarket shelves and power blackouts.
George Madgwick, a councillor on Hampshire County Council, has been suspended by Reform UK with "immediate effect", a party spokesperson said.
The 37-year-old suspect has been bailed and is due to appear at Portsmouth Magistrates' Court on 25 November.
The charges against Madgwick relate to four victims, aged between 16 and 17 at the time of the alleged offences, Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary said.
The alleged offences are said to have taken place between 2008 and 2021, in Portsmouth and Wales.
Madgwick, of Portsmouth, has been charged with offences, which include:
• Twelve counts of rape
• Eight counts of actual bodily harm
• Two counts of assault by penetration
• Two counts of sexual assault
• Two counts of controlling and coercive behaviour
• Two counts of making an indecent image of a child
• One count of distribution of an indecent image of a child
• One count of stalking
• One count of threats to kill
• One count of false imprisonment
• One count of criminal damage
• One count of theft
• One count of causing or inciting the sexual exploitation of a child.
Police launched an investigation in July 2025 after officers received a report of a sexual offence. On 6 January 2026, a man was arrested at an address in Wandsworth, London.
Madgwick represents the North East Havant ward in Havant, Hampshire, and was elected in May 2026.
A spokesperson for the CPS said: "The Crown Prosecution Service has decided to prosecute George Madgwick for serious sexual offences, including multiple counts of rape.
"He has also been charged with making a threat to kill, false imprisonment and stalking.
"Our prosecutors have worked to establish that there is sufficient evidence and that it is in the public interest to bring the case to court.
"We remind all concerned that proceedings against the defendant are now active and that he has the right to a fair trial. There should be no reporting, commentary or sharing of information which could in any way prejudice these proceedings."
Hampshire Country Council said it is "aware of the charges brought against Councillor George Madgwick. These are extremely serious allegations and, as criminal proceedings are now underway, it is not appropriate for the County Council to comment further at this time".
"Councillor Madgwick remains an elected member of the County Council under the rules of the Local Government Act 1972. Being charged with a criminal offence does not in itself disqualify a councillor from office."
A group of parliamentarians wrote to the retail giants on Tuesday, ahead of the Black Friday sales and the Christmas shopping season, and has also asked the government to ban the toys.
An Amazon spokesperson has said it is exploring whether "proper guardrails for these products are in place as this technology develops".
In a statement, eBay said that it works "closely with regulators to address emerging product safety concerns, and ensure our policies and listings reflect applicable legal and regulatory requirements".
Some toys on the market allow children to simulate verbal conversations with a chatbot.
In a video seen by the Press Association, one fluffy pink toy in the shape of a rabbit's face was asked by an adult whether touching genitals was "pleasurable".
The toy responded that this type of contact can be "pleasurable for some people" and that "the key is clear consent and comfort".
Amazon said it was "in the process of removing this product as we investigate".
In their letter to the retailers, the parliamentarians warned this was a suggestion that "the child could give consent to being touched for pleasure", warning that "no toy should ever say this to a child".
Shopping websites were urged to take the toys "off sale until independent testing shows they are safe for children, including for psychological, developmental and privacy harms, not only physical safety".
In their letter to Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds, the group called for a ban under existing consumer protection laws, saying their concerns were "not a fault in one product".
Rather, they said, "it is a new category of toy that no UK regulator tests for psychological, developmental or safeguarding harm before it reaches children".
The ministers were urged to "prohibit the supply of toys with built-in generative AI chatbots to children under 16" and create a dedicated commodity code for the tech-enabled toys to allow HMRC, Border Force and Trading Standards to "identify, monitor and stop these products at the border and on online marketplaces".

Baroness Finlay of Llandaff, an independent crossbench peer who signed the letter, said: "No parent buying a cuddly toy for a three-year-old could imagine it answering their child's innocent questions with adult sexual responses.
"These toys are on sale now with no one checking what they say. The government already has the power to stop them and it should use it before Christmas."
Jess Asato, the Labour MP for Lowestoft, said: "These toys should not be anywhere near young children until someone has checked what they say."
Alliance 4 Children boss Paul Wright said the pink toy "said things to a 'child' that should never be said", and that this happened "within minutes of switching it on".
He demanded they be "taken off sale until they are proven safe, not withdrawn one at a time after children are harmed".
A government spokesperson said: "We are concerned by these reports and are urgently investigating the products identified as well as the potential risks posed by AI in toys through our recent call for evidence."
The incident occurred as Andorra goalkeeper Jesus Owono raced from his goal to challenge De Miguel for the ball during a Spanish second-tier game.
In a statement, his club CD Tenerife said: "Heartbroken, with a lump in our throats and unable to believe that this is true, we at CD Tenerife announce the tragic passing, on Tuesday 3 November 2026 at 8am (7am UK time), of Jesus de Miguel Alameda.
"There are no words of comfort; there is absolutely nothing that can ease this overwhelming sense of sadness. We stand with his devastated family, with his loved ones, and with the entire Tenerife footballing community, who today mourn this cruel turn of events.
"The family of Jesus de Miguel would like to thank everyone for their expressions of support and, from the bottom of their hearts, ask that their privacy be respected at this terrible time."
Late on Monday night, Tenerife issued a statement confirming De Miguel had been admitted to hospital and was initially described as "stable despite the severity of his condition".
However, in an update in the early hours of Tuesday morning, the club confirmed his condition had "worsened neurologically".

Owono was immediately sent off after he rushed out of his goal to challenge De Miguel in the centre circle - the third red card of the game.
The Tenerife striker, who joined CD Tenerife last year, was taken to hospital with head and chest injuries after the contact.
The match was suspended after the incident.
Andorra issued a statement on X which read: "With broken hearts and devastated, we want to send our most sincere condolences to the family of Jesus de Miguel, to all his teammates, friends, and to CD Tenerife. Rest in peace."
English clubs Manchester United and Liverpool joined in offering their condolences on social media.
United will hold a minute's silence before they kick off against Roma in Tuesday's Champions League clash, and both teams will wear black armbands in tribute.
The Spanish soccer federation postponed two Copa del Rey matches and one Copa de la Reina match to be held on Tuesday.
Spanish police have since opened an investigation into possible involuntary manslaughter.
Judicial authorities in the Canary Islands said the opening of an investigation into the death of De Miguel was a routine procedure because any death deemed non-natural under Spanish law automatically triggers a judicial inquiry.
