Normally, even if CO was a few bucks more, I chose CO (I live downtown, so airport location not deciding factor). I chose CO for OnePass loyalty. But not this time for $350 savings on a 1222-mile trip.
Southwest doesn't fly the places I need so there isn't even a treat of pricewar from them nor is there a chance for me to use without driving over 200 miles

I like CO, but having some option other than AA would be good, AA is just nickel AAnd diming everything these days, I hope at least CO doesn't follow suite.

I can't expense report every little cash transaction at least I can file my ticket price whatever it may be
