A successful pref-flight request returns status code 200 (OK).Indicating that CORS is enabled for the service.

Not going to downvote, but the spec says 200-220 for successful requests. You also have the other HTTP codes for other conditions, such as authentication or authorization errors. – Mad Myche Feb 20 '18 at 17:12
