A wonderful TR! I found the comparision to be quite interesting. I have enough CO miles to go FCO -- ELP (Christmas with family), but so far have stuck to BA. Usually, when redeemign miles with CO, I've found they put me in J on AF (rarely their own metal....go figure)....I ended up opting the BA flight as the connection in CDG was less than 40 min....No thanks (to tight).
But I would like to make it back onto AF again, just for the comparison.
