Re: message from xyzzy

I am going to downgrade myself to silver next year on CO. My biggest complaint is the $150 award redeposit and award ticket change fee. This is a $115 increase for Gold and $100 increase for silver. This is outrageous.

I have no problems with the no 500 mile guarantee. I have reservations about the $15 baggage fee. It does not affect me now but it will in the future.

Once I reach silver, I will shift to Southwest which still has the best program in the US.

And no more international travel on CO unless the prices are competitive.
