   Isn't this what *EVERY* airline does?  Advertise their lowest fare possible,   
   and get you to check out their fares?  They've been doing this for YEARS   
   now, and you finally noticed!?  Bravo.   
      
   Now, if you're complaining about airlines advertising fares, then I'd like   
   to add my two cents about something else.  I wish they would not advertise   
   their fares "based on one-way" travel.  That split-second excitement that   
   starts your heart racing of seeing an unbelievably low fare, then realizing   
   it's one-way based on the fine print.  I thought I remember the airlines   
   promising a few years ago in the customer's bill of rights or something,   
   that they would only advertise fares for round-trip travel?
