Police respond to unfounded bomb threat at Vancouver International Airport

  • Richmond RCMP received bomb threat reports concerning a flight departing from Vancouver's airport on the afternoon of May 11.
  • The reports came via emails from an unknown sender sent to both YVR staff and a local news agency, with investigators noting no confirmed link to a similar bomb threat earlier that day.
  • The RCMP and YVR responded by conducting a full security sweep of the flight, delaying only that flight while airport operations faced minimal disruption.
  • RCMP spokeswoman Brett Urano stated, "no credible evidence" of a bomb was found, and police consider the emails to be swatting calls falsely reporting violent crimes.
  • Richmond RCMP continue investigating and urge anyone with information to call 604-278-1212 quoting file number 2025-14689.
