I am Gold, per flying 25K miles last year.. not worth doing the challenge for gold.
Other than free bag check, not worth a whole lot. Golds board with Group 1, after March 31 golds to not get MCE for free (50% off), and 500 miles upgrades never clear. Grabbing an exit row is about the only benefit I enjoy.
