As I have said elsewhere, ST is VERY strong for certain types of travel. They will find replacements for the FEW minor losses of CO. If there were enough demand for those other areas, I am sure ST would fill them. But if the routing does not fit for you, it does not fit. And, YMMV means your miles may vary, as posted at the end of some of my posts. This is because, what works for me, may not work for you.
