Zero.
With close to 300,000 miles on the account and an inability to use them on J class long haul routes, all these booster gimmicks are of no interest to me. All these extra miles add to up to what in any given year? 1000 points? 2000 points? And for that, mile chasers probably spend more money chasing the points than the points are actually worth.

TPAC, 16,500 miles for $105 worth of gas I would have bought anyways is a good deal.
Availability is bad, but keep searching. Get EF to monitor I availability for the flights you want.
