Hey Ho. The UK has just downgraded our security level alert by one notch. The build up to Christmas is the very time it should be ramped up. Cities and large shopping malls are target rich environments for those who are amongst us with evil intent.

Just looked on FlightRadar24and the planes that are landing are being kept well away from the terminal(s) and parked up far away on taxiways.

Seems passengers and crew are off the plane now.

Air Europa tweeted: “False alarm. This afternoon on the Amsterdam-to-Madrid flight an alert setting hijacking protocols in motion was mistakenly activated. Nothing has happened, all passengers are safe and hoping to take off soon. We apologise.”

Good result.
