Loganair flight makes emergency landing at Aberdeen Airport

The flight was bound for Dundee when it issued an emergency alert in the air.

A Loganair flight flight was forced to make an emergency landing at Aberdeen Airport.

Flight LM622 from London Heathrow was travelling to Dundee before it issued a Squawk 7700 on Tuesday.

The airline said a technical issue was identified and it was decided that the plane would be diverted to Aberdeen to ensure passenger safety.

A spokesperson said: “Loganair can confirm that flight LM622 from London Heathrow to Dundee diverted to Aberdeen on June 23, 2026, due to a technical issue affecting the aircraft.

“The safety of our customers and crew will always be our top priority, and we are arranging onward travel as quickly as possible.

“We apologise for the disruption to our customers’ journeys and thank them for their patience and understanding.”

Dundee Aiport opened in 1963 and is used for private and charter flights.

Loganair runs flights from Orkney and Shetland from the airport as well as two flights a day to London.

However, it was announced in April that the flights to London will end in September placing 30 jobs at risk.
