Pax oxygen either is fully available or totally not available - nothing in between from memory.
Pack fault/Bleed Airfault limited to FL250 FOR DISPATCH.

Strong winds and/or getting best TAS ie making up time the most logical explanation, I'm assuming they're still planned 30 min turnarounds which was always an interesting, if somewhat unrealistic IMHO, intention.

Cheers.
