A Boeing 737 Max of the Polish airline LOT, flying from London's Heathrow Airport to Warsaw's Chopin Airport, landed at Warsaw-Modlin Airport after a bomb threat. It was inspected by special services while passengers and crew waited in the arrival hall. No explosive devices were found, but the airport was temporarily closed.

SAS airline also received a bomb threat for its plane flying from Copenhagen to Warsaw. It landed at its destination airport, after which passengers and crew disembarked. Warsaw police joined the investigation. One runway at the airport was temporarily closed. No explosives were found either.

Two more incidents occurred in Bulgaria. According to Lyubomir Nikolov, a representative of the country's Ministry of Interior, email messages were received about bombs in various institutions, as well as on board a plane that landed in Sofia. Local media initially reported that it arrived from Israel, but later clarified that the flight was from Bergamo, Italy. It was a Wizz Air plane that landed at 9:10 GMT. In addition, a bomb threat was received for a Ryanair flight from Dublin to Sofia. No explosive devices were found on either aircraft.

Following a possible bomb threat, a Ryanair plane flying from Manchester, England, to Murcia, Spain, was also checked. No explosives were found on board.

Two other Ryanair planes heading to Rome's Fiumicino Airport from Lisbon and Dublin also received bomb threats. According to BBC sources, there were no explosives on board. The flight from Dublin was escorted by the Italian Air Force until landing.

One of the passengers on the Ryanair flight from Manchester to Murcia told the BBC that nothing was communicated to passengers during the flight. After landing, the plane stopped abruptly and stood on the runway for about half an hour. It was surrounded by firefighters, police, and bomb disposal experts, and passengers were escorted off the plane by police. Their belongings remained on the plane, and they were informed about the threat later.
