Plus I do not think it will qualify for low fare guarantee since on NWA.com the flights are coded as NW flights. Oh well. I booked on NWW and used some of my WP miles to upgrade.
From what I was told by their phone agents in 2003, CO and NW do not share the same inventory. Check the fare classes for all segments. CO's website pricing may have broken it as H-fare to NRT and a full Y from NRT-SIN. Also, CO has only 3 flights into NRT (EWR, IAH and GUM). NW has many more connecting options -- hence the cheaper option.
