A Transavia Boeing 737-800, registration PH-HXN performing flight HV-5133 from Amsterdam (Netherlands) to Barcelona,SP (Spain), was accelerating for takeoff from Amsterdam's runway 18L when the crew rejected takeoff reporting they had seen a flock of at least 100 birds ahead. The aircraft slowed and stopped on the runway, the crew advised they did a high speed reject and requested emergency services to check their brakes. The aircraft subsequently returned to the apron.

The aircraft was able to depart again after about an hour at the stand and reached Barcelona with a delay of about 75 minutes.
