If the bad guys can get bombs on planes then being able to remotely detonate them is the least of your worries.
But the idea that they're trying to destroy planes makes little sense; why would they then address the package to a synagogue, when they could have picked a completely innocent address which would have been far less likely to raise suspicion?
