A Kargo Express Boeing 737-800, registration 9M-KXP performing flight WW-816 from Macau (Macau) to Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia), was climbing out of Macau's runway 16 when the crew stopped the climb at 10,000 feet due to the cabin not pressurizing properly. The aircraft entered a hold while the crew attempted to trouble shoot the issue and subsequently diverted to Hong Kong (China) for a safe landing on runway 25C about 2:20 hours after departure.

The aircraft remained on the ground for about 14 hours, then departed for Kuala Lumpur again.
