Data point:
Booked BOS-LAX for early February. Blue fare was $193.10, Mint was $886. Only one MTM certificate was required so I confirmed it right away and was able to select seat 2A.
(Originally I was going to be on AA T321F, but that flight schedule got torpedoed so I was going BOS-JFK-LAX in J, waiting for an upgrade to F on the JFK-LAX route... but for $193, I'll happily take Mint on the nonstop.)
