Narrative:Aerolineas Argentinas Flight 1289 suffered a crack in the fuselage near the cabin door while climbing through FL330, causing depressurization. The plane diverted to San Juan.
CAUSE (translated from Spanish): Rupture of the lining of the fuselage, in the climb phase, reaching flight level 330 which resulted in a controlled depressurisation during a regularly scheduled passengers flight, because the area was hit by an impact from the passenger boarding bridge during boarding operation. Contributing Factors: An unauthorized person operated the boarding bridge in the early morning hours. Poor safety control in the operational area of the airport.
