They will patch the airplane up and do what's called a fairy flight and take ti to be fixed. Not sure what altitude it was at, but aircraft like that are pressurized from take off to landing, so yes they lost pressurization. I can picture the pilots grabbing the O2 masks and thinking WTF!

Been there, done that! Those are never good, as you never know if your flight controls are jacked up.
