Don't know but it depends on travel patterns even if so. I would probably pay $100 a year if I had to. Just walked through JFK last night in about 10 minutes or so. Longest ever on GE but shorter than the best time without it.
I believe it is $100 every five years.

To each their own on value. I would actually pay $100 for one trip. If I'm able to get out of the no mobile phone zone 10 minutes earlier and talk to a client, it has paid for itself for me.

By the same token, if I'm lucky enough to be going home and it gets me 10 more minutes with my kids, it's also worth it.

Yea. On occassions where I have made connections I wouldn't have made otherwise or made earlier connections that got me home hours earlier it is hard to overestimate the value.
