Summary

  • On November 2nd, an Iberia flight en route from Madrid to Rome suffered a loss of cabin pressure, but the pilots managed to land the aircraft safely in Barcelona.
  • The incident involved a 21-year-old Airbus A320-200 with high-density seating and operated under an operating lease agreement.
  • In case of depressurization, pilots must descend to a lower altitude of approximately 10,000ft (3,000m), thus allowing everyone on board to breathe without oxygen masks.
