When did this happen?

Probably a bar of soap. - view external link (news.stv.tv/east-central/259432-edinburgh-airport-evacuated-after-suspect-package-found-in-building/)

Must've been pretty serious if they evacuated the whole building.

You would think so if they're diverting incoming flights.

It happened around lunchtime today, I think.

It's going to be reopened shortly, a Hell of a long time to be shut.

It probably took them a couple of hours to check the package and that would've taken them to 4 O'Clock. It'll take another couple of hours to get everything opened up again. I'm sure it's not pleasant for those waiting on flights but the security of the airport surely comes first.

Suspicious bag. Think it had Palmolive in it.
