An Amsterdam-bound flight skidded off the runway at Oslo Torp Sandefjord Airport in southern Norway after it experienced a technical malfunction shortly after takeoff.
All 182 passengers, including the crew of the flight, remained unharmed.
Sharing details about the flight, the Norwegian Police earlier wrote on its website: "A passenger plane en route from Oslo to Amsterdam has made an emergency landing at Torp Airport after a report of a hydraulic failure."
"The plane has landed on the runway," police said.
All passengers of the KLM Royal Dutch Airlines-operated Boeing 737-800 were evacuated from the flight.
Meanwhile, KLM has decided to send a flight to Oslo to pick up the passengers stranded in the airport, media reports said.
Several videos of the flight are currently going viral on the social media platforms.
The incident occurred just hours before a Boeing 737-800 aircraft, operated by Jeju Air, flying from Bangkok to South Korea with 181 people on board, crashed after it landed at Muan International Airport on Sunday.
According to reports, 179 passengers on the flight died in the crash.
Only two passengers were evacuated safely from the plane.
