A jet aircraft generally maintains a cabin pressure of 7000-8000 ft during cruise. If the aircraft departs from a high elevation airfield, such as Quito (approx. 10,000ft), will the aircraft depressurise down to 7000-8000 ft?

1Changing the cabin pressure from 10,000 ft to 7,000 ft would be pressurizing, not depressurising. – Tanner Swett Dec 04 '23 at 08:48
