To me, it is the upgrade thing which is overrated... For domestic flights, I really don't care about upgrades.

But what makes Elite status worth it for me are 100% bonus miles, SDCs, lesser fees, free checked bags (if I need them), elite check-in and security lines. If I get to the top tier elite status, I would definitely appreciate the ability to book and cancel award tickets at will.
