A Spanish carrier says a security alert at Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport began when a hijacking warning on a plane was accidentally set off.

Air Europa said in a tweet Wednesday night that the scare that sent emergency services rushing to Schiphol was a false alarm.

The carrier says a warning that triggers hijack protocols at airports "was activated, by mistake."

It adds that all passengers "are safe and sound waiting to fly soon. We deeply apologize."

Airport spokesman Dennis Muller told The Associated Press, "All flights can now depart."

The military police service earlier said it was responding to a suspicious situation at the airport on the outskirts of Amsterdam.
