Southwest should have invested more into building up Kansas City and less into pouring money into the bottomless pit of Denver.

I don't know why Southwest is so intent on loosing money in Denver. Kansas City would make more sense to put the flights in that they are dumping into Denver. I avoid flying Southwest is I will have to fly through Denver.

MCI for KC MO is because of the old name for the airport, Mid Continent International Airport. The airport itself is Kansas City International Airport, but airport codes can not start with the letter K, thus, that's why it's MCI and not KCI. The old airport code was MKC-Municipal Airport Kansas City.
The reason it's in Missiouri is because there was a Missouri state before a Kansas State. Kansas is the name for the old Indian tribe in the area. Thus there was Town of Kansas to become Kansas City that was/is in what became the state of Missouri and the State of Kansas was first the Kansas Territory that later became the State of Kansas. The airport code and the city/state is not confusing if one knows the history behind it all.
