A Boeing 737-800 of Jin Air, operated as JNA/LJ231 from Seoul/Incheon, South Korea to New Chitose, Japan, declared emergency while on approach to New Chitose due to cabin pressure problem. The flight crew deployed the oxygen masks in the cabin. Ten minutes later, the declaration of emergency was cancelled, since the cabin pressure had successfully been controlled manually. The flight continued to New Chitose without further trouble. No personal injuries were reported. The plane was ferried back to Incheon four days later.
