There were no complimentary snacks (do any airlines even do that anymore?), but complimentary basic beverages. I haven't done those hops in a while, but I often found that SFO-LAX on VX was cheaper than any other airline.
Same goes for me. VX usually comes up cheaper on my short-hops between
SFO-SAN/LAX. Southwest and JetBlue seem to be the only airlines I'm aware
that still offer free snacks in Main Cabin.
