So, you just call them up and say, "hey, I found this lower fare to LAS. Can you match it?"
No. But they do match fares in competitive markets pretty quickly. They moved quite aggressively against VX when they showed up, basically running an hourly shuttle service on the West Coast to SFO/LAX most of the day. $49 fares to LAX with DEQM were pretty fun.
