The aircraft, a Boeing 747, left Las Vegas at 9.20pm local time on Sunday, September 11, and was scheduled to arrive at London Heathrow at 3.30pm UK time (14:30 GMT). It was about one hour away from landing when the emergency was declared.
Last year, the same British Airways flight from Las Vegas was forced to land in Montreal, Canada, following reports of a bomb threat.
