2) I'm not in Vegas; I'm in Denver. So this mythical free steak you speak of actually would cost me hundreds of dollars in travel in order to get it "free."

This faulty line of reasoning extends to other posters. Hey, LAN has a great product at a great price. Knock yourself out. Problem is, they don't fly where *I* need to go.
