It does get you some decent perks and upgrades. I usually fly first anyway, so upgrades arent as important. Where I see the benefit is when travel schedules get fouled up, being a revenue first class and platinum status gets me first dibs on getting rebooked.

It really doesn't sound like that big of a deal. So why do people do mileage runs just to maintain status?
