A Korean Air Lines Co. passenger jet has made an emergency landing at Haneda Airport in Tokyo, although no one was injured, a company official said Sunday.

The Boeing 777-200 bound for Tokyo from South Korea's Gimpo Airport with 176 passengers and 13 crew members on board landed at Haneda Airport at about 8:40 p.m. on Saturday, 25 minutes ahead of schedule due to a fire alarm, the Korean Air source said.
