A Westjet Boeing 737-700, registration C-FGWJ performing flight
WS-456 from Abbotsford,BC to Calgary,AB (Canada) with 131 passengers and 5 crew, was rotating for takeoff from Abbottsford's runway 07 when the crew received a master caution. Climbing through safe altitude the crew observed a "forward entry door open" indication and started the relevant checklist. Cabin crew confirmed the door handle was in the closed position. The flight crew continued the climb but observed the cabin did not pressurize, stopped the climb at 10,000 feet and returned to Abbottsfield for a safe landing on runway 07 about 40 minutes after departure.
The Canadian TSB reported: "Maintenance completed an evaluation on the forward entry door with no faults found. An aircraft cabin pressurization check was completed with no leaks noted at the forward entry door. The aircraft was returned to service, boarded, and continued to CYYC."
