The flight was executed by an airplane of the Czech operator. The plane was leased to a foreign airline operator. The departure airport was Glasgow, Scotland. The scheduled arrival airport was Alicante, Spain. After traveling for around 1 hr and 34 min in stable horizontal flight at FL 330 there was a signal showing a loss of cabin pressure. The crew applied emergency procedures conforming to the operational manual. The passengers‘ oxygen masks were activated manually. After reaching a safe flight level, the crew found out that both of the „PACK“ switches on panel P5-10 were at „OFF“ position. The crew readjusted the switches to working position „AUTO“. In this way the cabin pressurization system had been recovered. The plane then diverted to LFBD (Bordeaux) airport where it landed safely.
