A LOT Polish Airlines flight from London Heathrow carrying 181 people made an emergency landing at Warsaw-Modlin airport on Tuesday after a bomb threat was raised on board. The Boeing 737 MAX had been heading for Warsaw Chopin. Modlin was closed until further notice while bomb disposal teams checked the plane and luggage. A second threat also grounded an SAS flight from Copenhagen at Chopin.
