They have a time-limited promotion wherein if you have the card, you can check one bag for free. Doesn't mean that much for elites and Club 49'ers but still is a nice gesture to kettle-people.

Also, the companion ticket feature is a valuable benefit. Not so much as before, when you could buy two F tickets. There's mixed opinion on this. I happen to be one who still finds some value in it.
