So you need to set an ajax prefilter in your model/collection in order to use CORS. Otherwise it doesn't send the cookie.

$.ajaxPrefilter( function( options, originalOptions, jqXHR ) {
    options.xhrFields = {
      withCredentials: true
    };
});

I put this in my Model/Collection initialize function.
