COLUMBIA — American Airlines is asking for more than guaranteed revenue from the city of Columbia in exchange for providing daily flights to and from Chicago and Dallas-Fort Worth. It also wants to protect itself from the possibility of rising jet fuel prices, save money on landing and facility fees and ensure a minimum level of advertising for the flights.
