There's no way to tell you what exactly happened to your aircraft without having a look at the plane and diagnosing the bleed and pressurization systems. Either the pressurization system wasn't getting air fed to it, (Bleed air not getting supplied for some reason) The Pneumatic Air Conditoning Kits (PACKS) may have failed, or the outflow valve or its controller failed such that the valve would stay open. It could be any number of things. Pilots have been occasionally known to climb out with the packs or bleeds off. That's extremely rare but still a possibility. They'll never admit to it either! On the other hand, the pressurization may have been just fine, but there may have been a glitch in the controller that senses a high cabin altitude.

When looking at the layout of Milwaukee's airport on Google Earth, if you switch between terminals it appears you will have to go through security. I do not see any other way around it unless they have some underground subway or passenger walkway to connect you between the terminals.

now because if you do it later their is a chance you might not get a ticket

It's usually best to book around 3 months before your trip. Sites like cheapair.com have a fare tracker so you can get emails when the fare you want is lowest

I would book in the next month or so- if you need a great price email me!

They can't hit the ball, period.

Most of the Astro fans just love fishing for excuses. It annoys me. I never fish for excuses when it comes to my A's, and I don't see any Giants fans complaining either. Their team just flat out doesn't have enough tools to make it this year. I like how you poked fun at Tejada, Pence, Blum, and Berkman, lol.
3 :
Why pick on the Astros? NO ONE seems willing to win the wild card. It's like a contest no one wants to win. Sort of like the little league in South Park.
4 :
Well, I have respect for all of the Astro fans and I have no clue why they are on this losing streak. Your one of the many mean-spirited Cub fans on this board, just because your team is having a great year doesn't mean you can disrespect other teams like that.
