Narrative:Divi Divi Air flight 3R283, a DHC-6-300 Twin Otter, was on descent towards Curacao when the cockpit crew noticed the 'cabin door open light' illuminate. A few moments later still in descent, a faint noise was heard, the first officer looked to the back and noticed two passengers holding the passenger door. Shortly after the door was closed, the faint noise was gone, and the cabin door open light in the cockpit was out. The captain continued the flight that landed shortly after with the door closed and the door open light illumination light out.
