Get the USAir FF account and miles so you can combine them later: American Airlines, US Airways Merger In Works; Unions To Support Deal: Report [CORRECTION] I dislike AA so much that I have over 30,000 FF-miles with them I've accumulated when I needed to, that I don't want to use.
Delta used to be my only airline, but they left west Texas, and now have only some really crappy connections from Lubbock to Memphis to Atlanta to wherever I really want to go. I've got 4 Million Mile status with them doing nothing for me, and 5 worthless tickets in miles. Then I like Continental for years, until they merged United. Now they are crazy! Looks like I'll earn more AA miles going to Coz, but yeah - they jerk you around on time changes.

There are a lot of details to watch for sure. I book thru Orbitz, then contact the airline to fix my seat assignment and email & text notifications - then watch closely as I don't trust any of them. I also confirm arrangements with the booked hotel early and often.I'll never book another trip through one of those travel companies like Orbitz or Expedia. Nothing but problems for my husband and me trying to leave for our honeymoon. We ended up canceling our trip and booking directly through the resort. It was $400 cheaper (even last minute), but we still ended up paying $600 in fees to cancel (no fault of our own...our passports got lost in the mail).
