The next issue to think about is whether you're going to be taking Metro to DC a lot --- if so that would move NW a bit down on my list of carriers -- if only because of the distance from the Metro station to the NW gates -- it's something like a 10 - 15 minute walk and while there are shuttle buses, they can take just as long.
