This alert has caused some airports to be closed to passengers.

An airplane pilot accidentally issued a hijack alarm and a major security alert at Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.<\/p>\n

Dutch military police tweeted that they were investigating a "suspicious situation" at 19:30 (18:30 GMT).<\/p>\n

As police responded to the reported threat, some of the airports, one of the busiest airports in Europe, were closed.<\/p>\n

But about an hour later, Air Europa announced that the pilot mistakenly issued an alarm.<\/p>\n

"False alert. An alert was activated this afternoon in Amsterdam-Madrid flight, triggering a protocol for accidental airport theft." Airline tweeted<\/a>. <\/p>\n

"Nothing happened, and every passenger is waiting for a safe and healthy flight. We apologize deeply."<\/p>\n

The Dutch military police confirmed just before the announcement that all passengers and staff had evacuated safely from the flight to Madrid.<\/p>\n

Images posted on social media showed that some of the airport's D-pier was pushed to the public and passengers were waiting for information.<\/p>\n

During the flight, the plane landed at another area of \u200b\u200bthe airport, but some emergency flights were made due to the outbreak of emergency services. <\/p>\n

Roberto Carrera, 38, landed at the airport with an alarm at around 19:45 local time.<\/p>\n

"The demonstration informed me that an event might have occurred," the BBC said in a telephone interview. <\/p>\n

Carrera said he and other passengers flying in Dublin could be trapped and unloaded on the runway for about an hour. <\/p>\n

He saw the police at the terminal, but described the atmosphere at the airport as being generally calm despite the confusion. <\/p>\n

Dutch officials explained that this was a GRIP-3 situation. This meant that it meant an event or serious event that had serious consequences for the locals. <\/p>\n

According to regulatory documents released by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), pilots can use a special transponder beacon code that enters 7500 to raise warnings against illegal interference in case of theft.<\/p>\n

I'm not sure if it happened during the false alarm on Wednesday. <\/p>\n

Amsterdam Airport is one of the busiest transit centers in Europe and handles over 70 million passengers each year. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
