A Ryanair Boeing 737-800, registration EI-EFN performing flight FR-1213 from Bydgoszcz (Poland) to Birmingham,EN (UK), was on final approach to Birmingham's runway 33 about 3.5nm before the displaced runway threshold when the A321 crossed the hold short line.
The A321 rejected takeoff at low speed (about 75 knots over ground) and vacated the runway via taxiway T1 about 0.8nm from the start of takeoff run.
The B738 initiated a go around at about 1000 feet MSL and about 1nm before the displaced runway threshold. The aircraft positioned for another approach to runway 33 and landed without further incident about 15 minutes after the go around.
The A321 returned to the holding point and departed about 16 minutes after the rejected takeoff reaching Paris with a delay of about 14 minutes.
