A passenger reported there was a loud bang in the cabin, there was a rush of air, very clearly a drop of cabin pressure associated with ear and lung pain, most but not all passenger masks were released and a burning odour developed in the cabin (editorial note: indicative of the passenger chemical oxygen generators operating). There was no announcement by the crew initially, however, the aircraft appeared to be descending. About 10 minutes later the crew announced, that the automatic pressure control of the cabin had failed, they had now engaged manual control, the cabin pressure was back to normal and the use of oxygen masks was no longer needed.
The airline confirmed the failure of the automatic cabin pressure control, the crew switched to manual pressure control and continued the flight. An examination in Helsinki revealed that all passenger oxygen masks had deployed and were operative.
