A Delta Airlines Boeing 767-300, registration N138DL performing flight DL-2269 from Atlanta,GA to Orlando,FL (USA), was climbing out of Atlanta when the crew stopped the climb at 14,000 feet due to problems with the cabin pressure, descended the aircraft to 10,000 feet and returned to Atlanta for a safe landing about 30 minutes after departure.

The aircraft underwent repairs, was released to flight, departed again after about 2 hours on the ground and was enroute at FL330 about halfway into the flight when the crew needed to initiate an emergency descent due to the loss of cabin pressure. The aircraft levelled at 10,000 feet and continued to Orlando for a safe landing about 3 hours past schedule.
