The DL and AA offers are no different than the restaurant that offers a buy one, get one free offer with the caveat that the discount only applies to the cheaper item. </font>
i disagree on this point--they are different--because a restaurant would never say 'buy one get one free'--subject to availability. the free meal is only available depending on whether the restaurant feels like giving free food out that day or not. the free meal doesn't have blackout dates. and the free meal doesn't involve having to make reservations several months in advance, etc...
